“I grew up with six brothers.  That’s how I learned to dance – waiting for the bathroom.”   —   Bob Hope

(It’s been a while since we’ve had a Bob Hope quote!  I saw him just recently in the ABC\ESPN – part 1 – documentary on O.J. Simpson, on Saturday.  He was such a constant for a big part of my life.  Great deadpan humor!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Answer:  HOOKED

(A heartwarming Father’s Day preview Jumble!  No new clue words today, however all of the jumbles came up as new.  I had to give a little more thought to “sawceh”.  The other three were automatic for me.  The answer letter layout was OK DO-kie.  It’s tough hiding such short answers.  Great cartoon!  Especially, the three fish under water at the front side of the boat, and the jumping fish in the background.  Most likely the catch is a little sunfish, but you always remember your first catch.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
