Jumble Spoiler – 08/02/17

Visual Description:  Bracing for more bills.

GADEA  =  ADAGE,  IRCIE  =  ICIER,  LNUTEN  =  TUNNEL,  TERXOP  =  EXPORT   —   Giving us:  AEIERTNNOR

Clue/Question:  With so much dental work needed, they joked about having an orthodontist – – –

Answer:  ON RETAINER

(A great pun!  I can’t tell from the reduced size cartoon if either of the kids are wearing either braces, or retainers.  But, I got the gist of the joke, regardless.  There appear to be two new clue words today!  Both “tunnel” and “export” did not show up on my copy of the ralis95 clue word database.  Very surprising, as both words are very common.  This will give ralis95 a little work to do!  Three of the jumbles came up as new, with only “gadea” showing up in my list of Tags.  The answer letter layout was an expert level jumble!  I can see some people struggling to sink their teeth into today’s answer.  Nice little family scene cartoon.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
