Clue/Question: To figure out how the business burned down, they needed a – – –
Answer: FIRE “DISTINGUISHER“
(Beautiful! No new clue words today, but some tricky jumbling. Many of the jumblings were new to me. The answer letter layout was nicely cryptic. I don’t think it gave anything away. You just knew that the first word had to be FIRE. With the quotation marks around the second word, you knew that’s where the play on words was going to take place. I didn’t think that this was all that easy. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if some of you struggled to get this one. Great job on the cartoon, too, as always. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

That was my father-in-law, Bob Kent, as the “destinguisher”. He was the one who said that phrase during a toast to my mother-in-law on her birthday. I heard it and knew it was a good Jumble. I’m going to make a nice Father’s Day card with that one for him.
Excellent, Jeff! That Hoyt character must be rubbing off on you! — YUR 😉
That is so neat Jeff. I love background info.
OMWord, what a puzzler. Seventeen clue letters AND quotes! I got all of the clue words—with ferret and studio being just about diabolical!– and then was so lost. Had to head out and when I studied the puzzle when I returned I thought of fire extinguisher…and then figured it out! This one about beat me!
I keep thinking, “how are the guyz going to top this one!” And you do it over and over again! 🙂
