Answer: CHANGED LANES
(Okay! One of those literal/figurative puns. They work. All of today’s clue words are old favorites, but three of the jumbles came up as new. We’ve seen “gamie” before. I really liked “nkysni”. I didn’t have to back into it, but it made me think.
The answer letter layout was a thing of beauty. There was nothing obvious about it, in my opinion. The clue/question, along with the great cartoon, set up the gag very nicely.
I liked that the couple are both wearing bowling shirts. And, is that a Duff Brewery delivery truck? LOL! Priceless. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
PS. Remembering the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. What a sad day that was. He was a great man. A man of peaceful protest. Not like these ANTIFA knuckleheads. “World peace through nonviolent means is neither absurd nor unattainable”. That’s what Dr. King was about. — YUR

It *does* look like DUFF Beer, UR! I didn’t notice that, but I like it. Today’s cartoon made the secret words a skip down the lane!
Today’s was pretty straightforward, like yesterday’s, for me. Though for some reason, the online version from a newspaper seemed to be pixillated, which meant the cartoon wasn’t clear like normal. So I didn’t see the Duff beer on the side of the semi.
