“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”   —   Nelson Mandela

(Good luck finding a place that has remained unchanged these days!  But, I get what he’s talking about.  We like to think that we remain constant, when in reality we’re changing all the time.  It just usually happens in gradual increments, so it goes unnoticed.  It just occurred to me that we’ve never had a Nelson Rockefeller quote!  He was certainly a big shot in his day, from a very famous family.  Even if you’re not a fan of the guy, I’m sure he had some worthy quotes.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Clue/Question:  The 18-hole course would be laid out in a circle, making it perfect for – – – 

Answer:  ROUNDS OF GOLF

(Very clever pun!  Interesting concept too.  I wonder if there are any golf courses out there on this order?  Hmm.  I suppose if you bought up an abandoned quarry, of a certain size, and it had adequate land surrounding it, you could develop a circular type of course.  Maybe the guys should patent their idea, before Jack Nicklaus – or some other clever fellow – steals it!

Guess what?  We have another new clue word today, in “bongo”!  We have had bingo for quite a long time, but today was the first use of “bongo”!  Our pal, ralis95, gets to update his world famous database once again.  All of today’s jumbles came up as new.  The answer letter layout was a super jumble.  It did a nice job of disguising the answer.  And, the cartoon did a great job of getting the point of the pun across.  Another great one, guys!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
