Cryptoquote Spoiler – 10/24/18

“If you really look closely, most overnight successes took a long time.”   —   Steve Jobs

(Hardly an “original idea”, but true.  I bet roy, and a few other die-hards, saw IF YOU right off the bat.  And, quickly picked up on REALLY LOOK pretty quickly after that.  I guess it’s just one of those easy puzzle days!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Jumble Spoiler – 10/24/18

Visual Description:  *If you stock it, they will come.*

ICVGI  =  ICING,  LYHYS  =  SHYLY,  DGREEN  =  GENDER,  SOFINU  =  FUSION   —   Giving us:  IINSHLGENFSI

Clue/Question:  The lake had become so popular with anglers, the parking lot had – – –

Answer:  FISHING LINES

(Eeww!  Pretty stinky pun!  And, don’t say:  “I’m still hearing pretty.”  LOL!  But, this was also a pretty easy solve.  Well, it’s still relatively early in the week.  Maybe the next few will be a little more challenging.

All of today’s clue words are old favorites.  Ralis95 can go back to sipping mimosas by the pool, for now.  Maybe the boys will have some work for him later in the week.  Maybe not.  Three of the jumbles are coming up as new, with only “sofinu” having definitely been used before.  The answer letter layout was a healthy 12-letter jumble, but all the I‘s, the “Field of Dreams” type caravan of cars, and the use of the word “anglers” in the clue/question, made the answer a no-brainer, for me.

Loved the cartoon though!  They look like bass boats to me.  The sign showing the boat launch was a nice touch.  Lots of fun.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
