Belated Jumble Spoiler – 12/21/19

Visual Description:  Mathematic hieroglyphics.

EEOSB  =  OBESE,  LIVAL  =  VILLA,  WOCARD  =  COWARD,  PRISTI  =  SPIRIT   —   Giving us:  EEVLORS

Clue/Question:  He’d failed to figure out the solution but wasn’t giving up because of his – – –

Answer:  RESOLVE

(And boy, I would need tons of resolve to crack that equation!  It took me two shots to get through Algebra, then that was it for math and me!  Regrets?  Sure.  Because now I see how intertwined math is with so many other things.  Especially with things like astronomy, chemistry and music, but also in computing.  Too bad I was a know-it-all teen!  I knew crap!

It looks like we have a new clue word this day, in “spirit”.  Seems strange to me, but I could not find it on the latest version of the world famous ralis95 clue word database.  Three of the jumbles appear to be new, but we’ve definitely seen “lival” before.  The answer letter layout was a sweet seven letter jumble. 

Nice cartoon of what looks like a college/university level lecture hall.  That’s a very realistic looking advanced mathematical equation.  I wonder if Jeff copied from somewhere?  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
