Jumble Spoiler – 02/11/20

Visual Description:  A human fish tank on “Shark Tank”!

MLUPC  =  CLUMP,  RAHDO  =  HOARD,  ALMYIN  =  MAINLY,  VYAICT  =  CAVITY   —   Giving us:  CMPHOAMANCIY

Clue/Question:  It was easy raising funds for his business because investors wanted to – – –

Answer:  ACCOMPANY HIM

(Oh, yeah!  This is a very stinky, classic kind of pun.  I can hear the groans from across the land.  Hah!  Too bad, humor snobs.  We love our Jumble puns!

All of today’s clue words are familiar old friends.  Nothing for ralis95 to do today.  Three of the jumbles came up as new, but we’ve definitely seen “rahdo” before.  They all came instantly for me today.  Although, I did write out CLUMB, for some strange reason!  Sometimes my hand has a mind of its own.  Very often it is prematurely writing the next letter, instead of the letter at hand.  It is very frustrating.  The answer letter layout was an impressive twelve letter jumble.  By itself, there was nothing obvious about it.   You really had to pick up on the visual of the cartoon, and its dialog.

Great cartoon of the TV show!  Definitely Barbara Corcoran and Daymond John.  The other suit is either Robert Herjavec, or Mark Cuban.  I’m leaning a little more towards Cuban.  I’m not a huge fan of the show, but I’ll watch it, if nothing else appeals to me.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
