Celebrity Cipher Solved – 10/08/22

“‘Paranoid’ is what people who are trying to take advantage call you in an effort to get you to drop your guard.”    —   Matt Damon

(My dumb-ass newspaper – who decided to stop Saturday deliveries earlier this year – missed an entire page with their online edition!  B6.  The most important page in the entire newspaper!  The one with the comics and the crossword puzzle . . . and the Cryptoquote.  Gannett Media Corp. is going down the friggin’ toilet!  LOL!  😥😥😥  At least they had the page with the Jumble and the Celebrity Cipher.  Thank the heavens for small favors.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  (For the record, Matt Damon has NOT had a quote in the Cryptoquote, since I’ve been posting them.  So we cannot welcome him to the Cryptoquote Club . . . yet.  I feel like Jimmy Kimmel.  LOL!)   —   YUR 

Jumble Solved – 10/08/22

Visual Description:  Beach Buoyancy Bingo!

GILOC  =  LOGIC,  ILTTE  =  TITLE,  WLAANM  =  LAWMAN,  XFIEAT  =  FIXATE   —   Giving us:  LOILLAAFT

Clue/Question:  With so many people on inflatables in the water, it looked like a – – –

Answer:  “FLOATILLA“

(A regular hu-manish armada!  The lady is right.  Very few people seem to be swimming these days.  Some people don’t even go in the water, they just lie on the beach.  They might get that desired color . . . short term.  But in 40-50 years they’ll be at the dermatologist, getting their precancerous lesions.  Hopefully, they won’t have to have any biopsies done.  They’re a pain . . . in more ways than one! 

No new words today.  Ralis95 can rest easy.  Three of the jumbles are coming up as new, but we’ve definitely seen “giloc”  some time before.  The answer letter layout was a nice nine letter jumble.  Decently cryptic. 

Great beach scene cartoon.  This definitely looks like fresh water, like a lake or a big pond.  Very calm waters.  Floating on an inner-tube can be very relaxing!  Especially if you’ve got a nice cold drink to go along with it.  Fun Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
