Answer:  GET CRACKING

(I like it!  I like diners!  And, as Billy Crystal – imitating Larry Holmes – would say:  I like eggs!  You have to go back to the ’80s for that routine!  Crystal used to do some great impressions.  No one did a better Muhammad Ali.  So good, in fact, that Ali himself would refer to Billy as Little Brother.  Excellent clue word jumbling.  I’ve tripped up on “omega” in the past, but I got it right away today.  I started to write aquatic before I realized I was short an A.  Then I saw “acquit”.  When I was out in So-Cal last week I bought some beer by a company called Hangar 24.  Very tasty, indeed.  I really liked today’s answer letter layout.  And, the cartoon was a lot of fun.  I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I did.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“To find out what one is fitted to do, and to secure an opportunity to do it, is the key to happiness.”   —   John Dewey

(The securing of the opportunity is usually the tricky part.  It almost sounds like an oxymoron.  Sometimes it’s a matter of recognizing an opportunity when it arises.  Realizing it might not come your way again, and then acting with courage and conviction.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
