(So true!  This appears to be the first Jack London quote since I’ve been posting these spoilers.  I hope we see more.  I always enjoyed the Jack London stories.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

KREIB  =  BIKER,  NAYHD  =  HANDY,  LETNUC  =  LUCENT,  PILENC  =  PENCIL   —   Giving us:  IKEHANCENTPNI

Clue/Question:  She asked the obnoxious vampire to leave her alone when he became a – – –

Answer:  PAIN IN THE NECK

(A well worn pun!  Hey, we had a new clue word today!  Ralis95 needs to add “lucent” to his world famous clue word database.  It’s been quite a few weeks since we’ve seen a new clue word.  The jumble for it had me a little stumped for a bit, but I was able to get it without having to write out a bunch of tries, or backing into it.  All of today’s jumbles came up as new, too.  The answer letter layout was another excellent jumble, but the answer itself seemed pretty obvious, to me.  Jeff’s cartoon is priceless.  If you have the reduced sized Jumble you might not be able to recognize the guy dancing in the background as the Wolfman!  I never thought of Drac as a breast man though.  He’s all about that neck!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
