Answer:  FINNISH LINE

(That’s one of them Limburger puns.  You can smell them a mile away!  We all need a little stink in our lives.  We tend to get a little caught up in ourselves.  Stink has a way of bringing us back to earth.  There may be stinkier cheeses, but I am neither a fromager, nor an affineur.  My knowledge of stinky cheese comes from the Three Stooges.  There.  I said it.  I’m not particularly proud of this fact, but . . . whadayagonnado!

There were no new clue words, and the clue words were easy to get . . . for me.  The jumblings, however, all appear to be new.  The answer letter layout was a little obvious today.  Switching “uncle” for “fence” might have made it a little more challenging.  Great cartoon though.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
