Answer: “RIDE“ OF WAY
(Very nice pun. No new clue words today, but three of the jumbles came up as new. We’ve seen “catjek” before. The answer letter layout was another good jumble. I love the period cartoons! The clothing, the car and the horses! lots of fun. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
An especially good pun, as that’s the way people pronounce RIGHT OF WAY.
PS. You’re not alone, UR; Thoreau is pretty spontaneous and hard to make sense of. He seems to be saying the opposite of Alexander Woollcott, “All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral or fattening.”
WALRUS was a toughie for me. Had to back into it.
Hello everyone! Happy New Year! I’ve been away for a while now. It was a very busy last couple of months, but I am back and will comment on all the ones I missed. So, stay tuned. 🙂
Very nice pun! It took me a few seconds to get the answer. I got OF WAY first, and then RIDE as soon as I saw the remaining letters. The words were straightforward.
Nice to have you back, buddy. — YUR 🙂
Thanks, UR. 🙂
Love the pics Unc. And I can see both of them!! I would love to drive around in that little car! I wonder what the horse drawn wagon is. It looks like it could carry bodies??
WALRUS was a stopper, for a bit!!
Yes Vijay!! You were noticeably missing! Glad you are back.
Take care all! LL
