Answer:  STRETCHING THE TRUTH

(She wasn’t the most petite bride in her wedding photo, on the bureau, either.  But, you can see the increase in her hippiness, and you can make out signs of stress – to be polite – on her dress today.  It’s the guy that seems to have had the bigger increase!  Too many brew-skis and not enough exorcise.  I’ve been there.  There were no new clue words today, but all of the jumbles have turned up as new.  Once again, I kind of saw “greesy” again, but immediately knew it wasn’t right, and wrote down “geyser”.  I also mentally played with “tranty” before realizing it was “tyrant”.  It’s hard to say that there was anything wrong with the answer letter layout, but I could somehow tell that STRETCHING was going to be the ten letter word.  And, THE TRUTH followed as pretty obvious.  But, it’s a fun pun and a fun cartoon.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
