Clue/Question:  When the chiropractor returned from vacation, it was – – –

Answer:  BACK TO BUSINESS

(Mainly “back”.  But, it looks more like a shoulder and arm situation, this time.  I can remember when chiropractors were considered “quacks”.  A lot of people in the established/traditional/western medical field are still a little leery of them.  Well meaning friends have tried to refer me to them over the years, but my mom instilled the “quack” factor in my brain, from a very early age, and it has stuck.  I’d sooner see an acupuncturist, but I haven’t done that yet either. 

We have another new clue word today, in “strict”.  Doesn’t it seem that it’s always a very common word that is a “new” word?  Our good friend, ralis95, will have to update his world famous clue word database yet again!  Three of the jumbles are coming up as new, with “soybs” having definitely been used in the past.  The answer letter layout was an impressive fourteen letter jumble.  I didn’t see the answer immediately, but it didn’t take very long to get it.

Another fine cartoon.  The guy/patient looks to be in a bit of pain.  Sometimes the cure hurts more than the condition.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

“Children are innocent and love justice, while most of us are wicked and naturally prefer mercy.”   —   G.K. Chesterton

(Another form of “It’s easier to get forgiveness than permission”, which some people seem to live by.  Then, you can mark me down as a child, because I still value justice over asking for mercy.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
