Answer:  ORDERLY MANNER

(Excellent pun!  Very often, it seems like the orderlies are the friendliest – and most capable – people in the hospital.  Hey, guess what?  We seem to have a new clue word today.  I would’ve sworn that we’ve had it before, but it wasn’t on the ralis95 clue word database.  The “new” word is “burro”.  Purists might try to argue that the word is Spanish for small donkey, but the English language is very fluid, and constantly evolving.  I hope our good friend sees this one!  One of the jumbles, “flamee”, has definitely been used before.  The answer letter layout was outstanding!  A super terrific jumble, that did a wonderful job of keeping the answer hidden.  The cartoon does a great job of showing a hospital discharge.  Very satisfying Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
