Jumble Spoiler – 11/19/21

Snug Harbor Stories: A Wallace the Brave Collection! (Volume 2): Henry,  Will: 9781524851774: Amazon.com: Books

Visual Description:  The fishing expedition.

NUMDO  =  MOUND,  FRIDT  =  DRIFT,  GTUTAH  =  TAUGHT,  CULNMO  =  COLUMN   —   Giving us:  MUNDRIAUGHCOMN

Clue/Question:  What Wallace and Spud were doing on the boat.

Brave' new World: 'Wallace the Brave' comic starts Monday in the Tulsa  World | Entertainment | tulsaworld.com

Answer:  CHUMMING AROUND

(Great literal/figurative pun!  When I saw the length of the answer letter layout I was a little intimidated.  But I realized that they weren’t just fish, they were sharks.  And, I noticed the buckets, so the answer kind of jumped out at me.  Sorta like in “Jaws”.

None of the clue words struck me as new, and the ralis95 clue word database verified that for me.  Three of the jumbles appear to be new, but we’ve definitely seen “numdo” in the past.  I didn’t struggle to get any of them.  The answer letter layout was a fantastic fourteen letter jumble!  I thought it was brilliantly cryptic.  Nice job, guys.

Great cartoon by guest Jumbler Will Henry!  My paper does not carry “Wallace the Brave”, but it looks like a good strip.  Comics with kids and animals are usually pretty entertaining.  It looks like it generally takes place around a shore community.  So, go out and buy Will Henry’s books!  This has been a fun week of guest Jumblers.  Is this generally a one week deal, or might we see more guests next week?  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

  1. Hi UR…We’re not done with Guest Jumbler Week yet, the puzzles always run for six days, so tomorrow’s the last one…A puzzle about the comic strip Nancy. And with this being the 9th Annual go-around, the past years have only given us the one week. Oh, and this cartoon takes place in the fictional seaside town of Snug Harbor, Rhode Island, patterned after Will Henry’s hometown. Ok, old CHUM…Hope all is well…and CATCH ya’ on the flip side! 😉🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. But of course! This IS only Friday! Silly me. So, we have one more day of the guest Jumblers. I used to read Nancy as a kid. Her and her pal Sluggo, along with her Aunt Fritzie! I wasn’t sure anyone was still writing/drawing this cartoon. I’m looking forward to seeing it.

    I picked up on Snug Harbor from the photo I included in my post, and saw Will’s New England roots when Google brought me to Wallace the Brave! (Wikipedia)

    I guess it wasn’t a FLUKE that you answered my question, kiddo. To be perfectly honest, I carefully CAST my NET out there, and I figured to REEL you in.

    Take care, Ange! — YUR
