Jumble Spoiler – 08/10/16

Visual Description:  One man’s trash is another woman’s treasure.

KIRHE  =  HIKER,  OBTOR  =  ROBOT,  VINIET  =  INVITE,  OGATUE  =  OUTAGE   —   Giving us:  HKRROBITETAE

Clue/Question:  He broke his wife’s favorite figurine, and now he had to – – –

Answer:  BREAK IT TO HER

(Lots of things have more sentimental value, than monetary value.  She’s probably had “Cowboy Kitty” since she was a young girl.  At least the hubby is showing the proper level of concern for her feelings.  And hopefully, it’s just a simple super glue fix!

No new clue words again today, but it looks like all the jumbles are coming up as new again.  New, or not, I had no trouble with any of them.  The answer letter layout made for a nicely cryptic jumble, but the clue/question, and the cute cartoon’s dialog, set the whole thing up for an easy solve.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

  1. I had a little bit of trouble with OUTAGE as well. I immediately felt that BREAK was the first word of the final answer but hesitated since BROKE was part of the clue. In the end, I decided that it had to be BREAK, and then the pun dawned on me.
