Clue/Question: Th 2 was much more easygoing than the 3 because the 2 was – – –
Answer: EVEN–TEMPERED
(Not bad. A nice semi-math pun. I never knew that 3’s were type-A personalities. Is he yelling at the 4 on the board/grid, or just in general to whoever is playing the Sudoku game? I can appreciate math more, now that I’m older, but I still prefer word games.
All of today’s clue words are trusted old friends. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen “sheen”. All of the jumbles appear to be new. I didn’t struggle with any of them though. The answer letter layout was a nice jumble. I think the preponderance of E’s made getting the answer pretty easy for me. But the demeanor of the cartoon numbers was also a factor.
Fun? cartoon. Jeff must be experimenting with hallucinogenic drugs. What do you guys think: LSD, magic mushrooms, peyote? The dude is definitely trippin’! Who would think to put “We’re #1” mitts on the number 1? Maybe Jeff was too influenced by School House Rock as a kid. Or, maybe he just wanted to see if I’d break out the word anthropomorphic! Well, I’m not going to to! Uhh . . . wait. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
