(And, she looks none too pleased about this arrangement.  But, can you blame her?  Unless you’re a teen with a surfboard, or a big Herman Munster fan, who really wants to be seen driving a hearse?  Very few people really want to be associated with death.  It’s just too depressing.

All of today’s clue words were old favorites.  But, all of the jumblings looked new, to me.  I was able to get them all immediately today.  Great job on the answer letter layout though.  I think with the more letters an answer has the more creative you can get with the answer letter layout.  And, Hoyt did a great job with the clue word selection to arrive at this layout.  Fine cartoon.  Although the hearse looks a little on the short side.  Almost like a hearse SUV.  Hey, maybe they specialize in midgets!  Er . . . little people . . . vertically challenged folk?  What do you want from me?  I just post spoilers!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
