Jumble Spoiler – 09/13/18

Visual Description:  Punctuation peculiarities. 

TOSUJ  =  JOUST,  EHADA  =  AHEAD,  PRUOSO  =  POROUS,  PANYPS  =  SNAPPY  —   Giving us:  JTHADUSSA

Clue/Question:  The hyphen liked adding pepper to his food, but – – – 

Answer:  JUST A DASH

(Very clever pun, and a very clever cartoon!  I enjoyed today’s Jumble immensely.  I’m not sure if “porous” is a new clue word, but I definitely had trouble with “pruoso”.  I had to back into the word.  The other jumbles I got right away. 

The answer letter layout was a great jumble too.  Not obvious, at all.

It was a little hard to see, but I could see a #, a %, an @, and a & sign in the background.  And, someone sitting with a question mark at another table.  Very amusing.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“The real test of golf and in life is not keeping out of the rough, but getting out after we are in.”   —   Source Obscure

(Maybe, it’s just a line from “The Legend of Bagger Vance”!  Which was not a huge commercial success, but a very watchable movie regardless.  I know someone who was an extra in the movie, but that’s neither here nor there.  There’s a very familiar ring to this quote.  I guess it’s just because it’s a variation of the numerous falling down/getting up quotes, which are all valuable.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
