(Fresh pun!  I’d say Jeff has good reason to fret!  Although, if you read the related article below, I guess you can play with one string.  Surprisingly – for me – there were no new clue words today.  I though that maybe “birch” and/or “suffix” might be new.  But no, they’re both up there.  And with “birch” we’ve even see the same jumble!  The other three jumbles are seemingly new.  The answer letter layout was great again today.  A fine jumble that didn’t give anything away, in my opinion.  A fun cartoon too.  I didn’t know that Jeff had his own roadie!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
