(So, don’t disrespect anyone, just because – to you – they don’t look like much.  There is so much untapped potential in each of us.  It just takes a certain je ne sais quoi to bring it out.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Jumble Spoiler – 02/27/18

Visual Description:  Off-base diner.

DLNAB  =  BLAND,  NORGP  =  PRONG,  RMILEB  =  LIMBER,  SCUACE  =  ACCUSE   —   Giving us:  BLAPNGLIERCUE

Clue/Question:  The four-star military commanders retired and became part of the – – –

Answer:  GENERAL PUBLIC

(Sniff, sniff, sniff!  Ah, there’s nothing like the smell of stinky puns in the morning!  Smells like . . . victory!  LOL!

There are no new clue words today.  But two of the jumbles appear to be new, with “norgp” and “scuace” having definitely been used before.  The answer letter layout was a regimental masterpiece.  I found nothing about it obvious.

The cartoon itself didn’t give anything away either.  The dialog gave some hints, but it was the clue/question that really set the table . . . so to speak.  A very enjoyable Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
