Answer: SIGN IT OVER TO HER
(Wow! This one really had me going, for a while. Maybe the guys were trying to shut me up a little. JKLOL!
I thought that the jumble “tauish” was positively diabolical! No, LindaLee is not writing today’s comments. I had to back into it, and that wasn’t easy, because without that H & S . . . figuring out the final Answer was definitely not easy for me. I also thought that both “vaiyar” and “tangee” were fairly challenging jumbles. All of them appear to be new jumbles.
The answer letter layout was a killer jumble. Nothing obvious about it, to me. The cartoon’s dialog led me to think one of the answer words might be REST, so I was thinking REST IT OVER . . . I finally focused in on her signing the sales papers/contract. Then the bells went off, and I saw the final answer. Figuring out what to do with the S & H still took me some time to figure out “hiatus”! Great self-promoting Sunday Jumble! LOL! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
PS. I haven’t seen “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” yet, but I want to see it. I did just see “The Post”, and it was good, but . . . — YUR
