Clue/Question: Using drones to deliver the magazines – – –
Pre-Answer: Three Words (6-letters) (4-letters) (6-letters)
Answer: RAISED SOME ISSUES
(Why some people would accept a little bit of “convenience”, at the cost of personal privacy, is totally beyond me. I understand that privacy is a dying concept, but I think it is still essential to a free society. Other than search and rescue personnel, using drones to locate/help lost and/or injured people/animals, in areas that are too vast and rugged/dangerous to do otherwise, I think they should be banned. And the so-called “security” scam, that has been perpetrated upon us ever since 9/11/2001, is just that . . . a scam, that preys on people’s basest fears. If you really need to fear anything, fear the ever increasing police state, here and around the world. And, fear the climate change that all of us have caused, and continue to cause. Those are the two things that we need to fight against, because they have the gravest consequences.
There were no new clue words today. The first two jumbles appear to be new, but jumble 3-6 have all definitely been used before. I thought that “sangsi” was a devious jumble! But, I didn’t have to back into it, or anything. The answer letter layout was an excellent sixteen letter jumble. Nothing obvious about it. I figured ISSUES first, then I saw SOME. The AISEDR gave me RAISED.
Great cartoon of J Magazine! Coming soon to a newsstand near you! The drone techie looks convincingly nerdy. And, the drones look sufficiently annoying. Fine Sunday Jumble. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Oh my! I had this totally muddled up! I picked up an additional M along my dyslexic way (and I don’t know what else!) and thought I’d FINALLY figured out the solve. But, I didn’t totally like it. Then figured I didn’t quite understand it! I (not so) brilliantly came up with: ‘MISSED SOME ISSUES.” OY!
At least I was in the ball park — maybe parking lot!
Hope all are well!!! I’ve been using my IPad and for some reason could not get into the blog. Decided to try tonight on my computer! VOILA! LindaLee
Ballpark??? No, ma’am. No fans allowed in the ballpark while this COVID-19 pandemic is going on. I’m afraid we’ll have to ask you to leave. But, thank you for wearing a facial covering, like all responsible people should. You’re a good egg, LindaLee! — YUR
