Cryptoquote Spoiler – 05/16/19

“If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich.”   —   Lao Tzu

(Oh, he never would’ve made it on MTV!  I think they borrowed from the Mick Jagger quote:  “Too much is never enough.”  Mick is no slouch though.  He was likely playing off the famous Lao Tzu quotation.  But, I think Johnny Cash said it best when he said:  How do you do?  My name’s Lau Tzu!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Jumble Spoiler – 05/16/19

Visual Description:  Prêt-à-porter et prêt-à-voler.

VIWEA  =  WAIVE,  DPATA  =  ADAPT,  NYOEKM  =  MONKEY,  RNYETD  =  TRENDY   —   Giving us:  WAIAATMNEYRENY

Clue/Question:  The fashion model was very flexible and willing to work – – –

Answer:  ANY-“WEAR“ ANY TIME

(Ooh!  This one was a fairly challenging little stinker.  At first, I didn’t have a clue as to wear they were going.  I got the second half first, somehow seeing ANY TIME.  Then, when I brought down the WAARENY, I caught the pun part.

All of today’s clue words are old familiar friends.  But, all of the jumbles appear to be new!  I was in the zone solving them.  The fourteen letter answer letter layout jumble was another thing altogether.  It was masterful.  Nothing really jumps out at you, at all.  I think the cartoon’s dialog was the biggest clue.

Fun cartoon of a trendy looking apartment.  Both of the young ladies look like models, to me.  Very good Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
