Answer:  HIS GOOD MEMORY

(I believe that all the jumblings were new today.  Not the clue words, just the jumblings.  And, that’s just since I’ve been posting these spoilers.  I liked them all, but especially “oomph” and “trudge”.  We actually have a new clue word for the ralis95 clue word database, in “byline”!  I thought the answer letter layout was fantastic!  Too bad the Clue/Question had the word “recall” in it, and the one guy mentioned RAM, which stands for random-access memory.  Those two references pretty much gave the answer away, for me.  Fine cartoon though.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Cryptoquote Spoiler – 10/28/13

“The sublime and the ridiculous are often so nearly related, that it is difficult to class them separately.”   —   Thomas Paine

(Jimmy Carter and his brother Billy???  Actually, a lot of that was media hype, but they did appear to be polar opposites.  I was tempted to use some of the Bushs, but it’s tough actually calling Barbara sublime.  Maybe, more of a subjugator.  Tough cookie, that Babs.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
