“We must recognize that difference is a reason for celebration and growth, rather than a reason for destruction.”   —   Audre Lord(e)

(Wow!  Our third Audre Lorde Crytoquote in the last two months!  This could get me to post two relevant songs, but I had my heart set on two other – birthday – songs.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Jumble Spoiler – 11/12/20

Visual Description:  Obsessing over obesity.

GEMAO  =  OMEGA,  WTAHE  =  WHEAT,  NINOMI  =  MINION,  CTILHG  =  GLITCH   —   Giving us:  OMGWHEININGIH

Clue/Question:  The lack of success with his diet was – – –

Answer:  WEIGHING ON HIM

(That’s a big fat, stinky pun alright!  Possibly the heavyweight champ of stinky puns.  Tipping the scales at the unwieldy mark of 350 lbs.  An a-pun-dant pun!  A real beefy, chunky, lumbering load of funky puniness.  Or, not.

Would you believe that David L. Hoyt has snuck in a brand new clue word, in “minion”?!  Yeah, it’s not on my latest copy of the ralis95 clue word database.  Maybe it was on an older Sunday Jumble, but he never sees those.  Two of the jumbles are new, but we’ve already seen both “gemao” and “ctilhg” sometime before today.  The answer letter layout was a sizable thirteen letter jumble.  It started out with OMG!  But, it couldn’t really hide WEIGH.  And, that was the key word of the final answer.

Cute bathroom weigh-in cartoon.  We haven’t had one in a while.  Though it is a popular theme.  That looks like a doctor’s office scale though!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
