Clue/Question: When the kids kept asking questions, their mom was – – –
Answer: ALL “NO–ING“
(Unfortunately, too many parents just don’t seem to get this. They feel that telling their precious child “No” will somehow stifle their delicate imagination. At least that is the excuse many of them use. I think it’s more a combination of being lazy and being scared that their kid will resent them. Developing minds need limitations, when it comes to behavior issues. They need to learn that life is not all about their wants. There’s a whole boatload of people out there. Everybody doing their own thing, for their own gratification, results in chaos and anarchy. Cooperation and compromise is what makes for peace and harmony.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Jumble. No new clue words today, but all of the jumbles except for the one for “manner” are new. Great job with the answer letter layout! Is this Hoyt, or the guest artist? I thought that the answer was fairly challenging. Loved the cartoon too. A very harried mother! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

I actually laid out all the puzzles and chose all the individual jumbles, but the guest Jumblers chose the final answer. I love these. Very fun. Kudos to Jeff for setting all this up. Very cool.
It’s “except”, not”accept…in your above editorial. Common mistake, but a fix in need…
. . . and a mistake that I almost never make. As a matter of fact, when I do mistake the two words it’s usually the reverse! Thanks, brother. I’ll make the fix directly. — YUR
