Answer: CUTTING IT

(Well, technically he IS cutting it. Just not very very well. I tell you, it is so hard to find good help these days! Especially at the minimum wage. But, we’ll save that debate for another time.
No new clue words today, but some interesting jumbling. Three of them appear to be new to me, and one we’ve seen before. Ironically, the one we’ve seen before gave me the most trouble. I think FURNIA gives the impression that it’s a three syllable word, so you don’t see – at least I don’t – “unfair” right away. “Covet” is a great word, but the jumbling didn’t fool me any, nor did the other two. I think Hoyt makes up for that with a very good answer letter layout. I don’t think anything was given away there. The cartoon is great. Hey! It looks like they’re running a special on Ground Beef! Load up on it for your next barbeque! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
PS. There is supposed to be some gimmick if you click on the picture of the girls. Hey! Zemanta provided it, and you know me, I just can’t say no to a little cheesecake. — 😉
