(Not bad!  No new clue words today, but the jumbling of these four old friends was inventive.  I didn’t struggle with any of them, but I really liked “scour” and “emblem”.  The answer letter layout was just okay.  I think switching “scour” for “stunt”, and “waiter” for “emblem” might have made things a little more challenging.  But, that’s just me.  I must be in one of my moods.  The cartoon, and its dialog, set up the pun perfectly.  I wonder if the corner of Cameron and Argyle actually exists, or if Jeff just pulled those names out of thin air?  That’s about it for today, friends.  Please, be well, and remember to at least try to do good.)   —   YUR
