(Looooooooong answer.  Maybe, that’s why it’s not RE-PERCUSSIONS, or something that isolates the word percussion.  There were no new clue words today, but all of the jumbles came up as new.  I really liked the answer letter layout.  It was also a great jumble.  Cool cartoon.  I’m not up on this dude, Aronoff, but his website makes it look like he has a pretty big ego.  That’s cool.  Sometimes that’s what it takes to believe in yourself.  To each his own.  Be well and do good, friends.  And, R.O.C.K. ON!)   —   YUR

“We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinnertime.”   —   George Eliot

(I know this is just a line, spoken by a character in one of her books, but it’s kind of a negative half-truth.  We also experience a number of wins throughout the day as well.  Some days, the minuses outweigh the pluses, but other days the opposite is also true.  Life might not be a perfect balance, but it’s always best to accentuate the positives.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
