Clue/Question: After the teenager’s party, his parents wanted him to clean up the – – –
Answer: “WRECK“ ROOM
(A very reliable stinky pun. I’m fairly sure we’ve had a very similar Jumble in the past. But, believe it or not, folks, there is a finite number of saws, adages and idioms to draw from. If this one was used before, our friend Angela will tell us when.
No new clue words today. However, three of the four jumbles did come up as new. We have definitely seen “coruc” before though. The answer letter layout was another fine nine letter jumble. Nice and cryptic. Quotation marks always help in getting the answer.
Fun cartoon of an angry Mom and Pop coming home to the big mess. It really looks like a downstairs rec room. What a mess though. At least I don’t see any evidence of alcohol. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Hi…November 29th, 2012. Puzzle poser: The children’s birthday party turned every section of the house into a …”WRECK” ROOM.
Stay well, stay safe….🙋🏻♀️
Is that the same Angela that runs the “other place”?

I dunno, Smitty. I never asked her. Could be, I suppose. Seems like a very pleasant sort! — YUR
There we go! I thought it sounded familiar. Thanks for the research, dear lady! — YUR
P.S. Smitty had a question for you.
Hi…You’re very welcome for the research, my pleasure. And yes, I am the same person who’s associated with the other Jumble blog. With all this extra time on my hands resulting from the quarantine, I began reading this page, and just thought to participate here and there. But if it in any way seems untoward, I can cease making any comment. It’s all good. And yes, thank you UR, I do feel that I’m a pleasant sort…If this scourge has taught us anything, it’s that life is way too short…for too many things…And living here in NYC, I’ve experienced enough angst in these past two months to last me a lifetime. So I come in peace…Stay well, stay safe, stay home. And here’s 🍷 to us all coming out of this nightmare healthy and happy. 🙋🏻♀️
S’all good, Angie baby! There’s no secret sauce to divulge anyhoo. I never felt a sense of competition anyway. I just post these things – these days – as a kind of habit I can’t break. Mostly for my loyalists. Hey, now! We are all in this together. I’ve got a lot of mixed feelings about the way things have been handled, but I’m willing to play along . . . for the greater good. It might not be happening as soon as we’d like it to, but this too shall pass! Stop by any time. Take care, Ange! — YUR
Thank you, and you take care too. Have a good night…🙋🏻♀️
