(At least that’s what fits. And, it kind of makes sense. I guess. Not much of a pun, really. Maybe the editors changed something? Hmm. I’m a little perplexed. Oh, well. There were no new clue words today. I did like the jumbling though. Especially on “yield” and “unlock”. The answer letter layout was just okay. I would have switched “yield” and “bogus”, and maybe even “unlock” and “pledge”. I think BUSYLEOC could have been a little more challenging. The cartoon was fine, I guess. I just have the feeling that something might have been changed. I guess the words “convenient” and “purchase” were supposed to convey the gag, but it kind of fell flat for me. And, no. I’m actually in a pretty good mood . . . in case you’re wondering. Be well and do good, friends.) – – – YUR
