(Another one where I didn’t need to read the clue/question, and even really look hard at the cartoon.  The answer letter layout kind of gave it away today.  Switching “cello” and “royal” would have given us ROACLOUNWND, which might have made it a little more challenging.  I think the bigger problem is the order of the letters in the clue words “cello” and “window”.  CLO and WN just made it pretty obvious.  If there were different clue words, with these letters, but in a different order, I think it would have been a little more challenging.  Just my two cents.  The clue word “cello” though is new to the Jumble.  The ralis95 clue word database continues to grow!  All of the jumblings are new, from my perspective.  The cartoon is really great today.  We’ve got an injured lion tamer, an acrobatic – perhaps trapeze – artist enjoying some cocktails, and two clowns spritzing the ringmaster.  Loads of fun there, and a mostly fine Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(Wow!  And this guy passed away in 1970.  Just imagine how he’d feel about today’s corporate situation.  I love it.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
