Clue/Question: Finishing first in the marathon created a . . .
Answer: LASTING MEMORY
Come Undone (film) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
(This was a tough one for me! No new clue words, but I struggled mightily with “biopsy”. A lot less with “goalie”, but I thought it and “tomato” and “undone” were all jumbled really well. The answer letter layout was superb! I struggled getting the answer. My problem stemmed from the fact that I believed that the second word was moment, instead of memory. Obviously I couldn’t do anything – legitimate – with GLARISY. The closest I could get with those letters was SAYGIRL. Clearly, SAYGIRL MOMENT was a little too slangy to be a legitimate answer. Although, who knows how Jeff talks to the Missus??? Finally, I decided I needed to take a re-look at the second word, and I came up with memory, and then lasting fell into place. Great cartoon, too. I’d like to think this was based on true events, but I don’t know. I haven’t heard from Jeff in a while. Either way, nice job, guys! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
