Clue/Question:  Hula-Hoop sales were reported in – – –

Answer:  ROUND NUMBERS

(Maybe I should’ve said Pi-chart?  For simplicity’s sake, they always round that to 3.14, but that’s because it seemingly goes on forever.  All of today’s clue words were tried and true, yet all of the jumbles are brand-spanking new!  Old or new, I saw them all instantly today. 

The answer letter layout was a dandy of a jumble, but I was able to see the answer instantaneously.  I think we may have had too many visual clues, to make this one at all challenging.  But, sometimes that’s just me, and a few of you will say that it took you a few looks.  How about it?  did most of you breeze through this, like me?

The cartoon was a nice little conference room scene.  I have to fess up, that I am undoubtedly THE worst hula-hooper in the history of the sport/game!  I move my hips, but they never seems to make enough  contact with the hoop, and the hoop ends up on the ground with the first rotation!  It’s tragic, because it has always looked like so much fun, as well as being great exercise.  The strange thing is, I’m not one of those uncoordinated boobs.  I do have some physical skills.  Oh, well.  At least I’m pretty good at the Jumble and the Cryptoquote.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
