Answer: “SAINT–O–CLAUS“
(And, we’d put out beer and pretzels for Santa, instead of milk and cookies! By the end of his ride he’d be totally sloshed! So many kids would get the wrong – maybe even inappropriate – presents. He’d be puking off your roof, or in your fireplace. He’d be flying through restricted airspace. Oh, it would be total chaos! I guess it’s a good thing that Christmas is held in December, after all.
No new clue words today. Three of the four jumbles were new though. I could only verify that we’ve seen the one for “notch” before. Excellent job on the answer letter layout. It was a super jumble. And, of course the cartoon, with Jeff and David, and Santa Patrick and the shamrocks, was lots of fun. I hope everyone had a safe Saint Patrick‘s Day. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
