Clue/Question:  After selling their one millionth battery, everyone at the battery factory was . . .

Answer: CHARGED UP

(Nice assembly line!  Nicely jumbled clue words.  None were new, today. None were super tough.  But, a real fine job on the answer letter layout.  Nothing given away there.  The We’re # 1 also doubles as the people pointing where?  Yes, UP!  Nice job, guys.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  Hey, I got a great puzzle tonight on Wheel of Fortune, with just the first letter.  The category was Food & Drink.  It was three words.  First word nine letters, second word four letters, last word seven letters.  The first letter called was “N”.  It turned up twice in the first word, in the third and ninth positions.  What do you think it was, guys?  Did anyone see it?   —   YUR
