(ralis95) Sunday Jumble Spoiler – 01/27/19

Visual Description:  Herd of word-nerds.

AIFURN  =  UNFAIR,  DSOWMI  =  WISDOM,  CODROT  =  DOCTOR,  TULOTE  =  OUTLET,  NLAVAD  =  VANDAL,  DHYYAE  =  HEYDAY   —   Giving us:  URWIMDOOOTEVNAHYY

Clue/Question:  The returning Scrabble champion guaranteed another victory by saying – – –

Pre-Answer:  Six Words  (3-letters)  (4-letters)  (2-letters)  (4-letters)  (2-letters)  (2-letters)  

Answer:  YOU HAVE MY WORD ON IT

(What do you think?  Are arrogant nerds annoying, or merely amusing?  I’m definitely a nerd, but I am mega-cool.  Plus, I’m one heckuva handsome, hunky dude.  And, on top of it all, my humility is boundless!  Yes, yer uncle is the total package.  LOL!

Hey!  Guess what?  We have a new clue word today, in “heyday”!  For some reason, I saw this compound word right away!  Our old pal ralis95 may add it to his world famous clue word database.  The jumbles that threw me for a minute or so were “aifurn” and “nlavad”.  All six jumbles came up as new today.  The answer letter layout was a spectacular 17-letter jumble.  I didn’t struggle with it, but there also was nothing obvious about it.  I would not blame anyone for having a tough time getting the answer.

The champ looks a little like Andrew Luck!  I’m watching the Pro-Bowl.  That’s one of Jeff’s boys.  I always like to see it when Jeff and David end up in the cartoon.  It has been a while though.  I haven’t played Scrabble in a long, long time.  Don’t know how good I’d be.  I’d probably hold my own.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR 

PS.  I feel like the M&M from their Christmas commercial!  “He does exist!”  LOL!   —   YUR
