Clue/Question:  They needed to replace the furnace because the one they had was – – –

Answer:  NOT SO HOT

(Cool pun!  LOL!  Downright chilly!  This was an easy Monday Jumble, to start the week off.  But, there was a lot to like about it.

All of today’s clue words are old friends.  Three of the jumbles came up as new, with “munsom” having definitely been used before.  I was able to see all of the clue words immediately this morning.  The answer letter layout was an okay jumble.  With three short words in the answer, and only one common vowel available, it was a pretty easy solve.

The cartoon is great.  Lots of fun details.  Like Ma and Pa’s breath fog, the spider web in the corner of the furnace opening, the rat lurking under the furnace, and the crack in the cinder-blocks where the rat got in.  The name on the furnace appears to be Crosswords!  Good stuff.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
