Clue/Question: The number 3.141 is just a – – –
Answer: PIECE OF THE PI
(A little more than two and 1/2 weeks late, but just made it within the month of March! A stinky pun delayed is a stinky pun . . . delayed. Fresh or stale, it still stinks! I think the guys had this one ready for March the 14th, but figured it was just too predictable. So, they set aside, allowed it to marinate a bit, then said: Hey, what the heck! We might as well use this. Look at it this way, guys and gals, it’s kind of a way to set up tomorrow’s April Fool’s Day Jumble! Maybe we’ll get a Jumble with a Thanksgiving or Christmas theme! LOL!
Of course all of the clue words are familiar old friends. Even “bilia” and “earpap” are familiar jumbles. Only “calok” and “siyetf” are coming up as new, for me. All fine jumbles though. The answer letter layout was nifty nine letter jumble. But the totality of cartoon, its dialog, and the clue/question made getting this answer easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Great cartoon of a pie shop! There’s the pumpkin pie that she’s measuring. I would just guestimate! Then there’s what looks like a lemon meringue pie, maybe a deep dish apple pie, either another pumpkin pie or perhaps a sweet-potato pie, and then one that could be some kind of berry pie, like cherry or blueberry. Is March National Pie month? It should be. Fun Jumble! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Happy 87th birthday to Herb Alpert! (Great song!)
UR,
“PIECE OF the “PI”…Oh Yea…There has been a debate, rather rabidly, among the philosophical/ mathematician ilk, if the PI numbers, 3.14~~~~~~~, go on to Infinity or do they have a definitive end??¿…and if the latter,
what would the final number be¿¿?.,,my uneducated pick, “7”{God thing}…then one enters a realm where the total “Earth Crap” has vanished!!!…Shalom☆☆☆
Soooooooooooooo long…….k
I’ve never heard of any mathematicians supporting the idea of a definitive end to PI, Ken. And, I have no idea what “Earth Crap” might be. Peace, — YUR
OMG — that Lemon Meringue Pie!!!!
And, of course, enjoyed the Jumble — BUT — oh that Pie!!
My dear Aunt Tweetsie – God rest her soul – made a scrumptious Lemon Meringue pie! I love pies, but it seems like I rarely eat them. Pumpkin and Pecan pies around the holidays is about it. But I love a good Cherry pie and Blueberry pie, and even a Strawberry-Rhubarb pie! Ooh, and Key Lime pie! I like things a little tart. That’s why some/a lot of Apple pies don’t thrill me – they’re too often too sweet.
And, now you’ve reminded me to greet my cousin for her birthday! Thanks, LindaLee!
