Sunday Jumble Spoiler – 05/26/19 (Oh, ralis95!)

Visual Description:  Drumming up business.

BRAVLE  =  VERBAL,  OFROGT  =  FORGOT,  BYUCON  =  BOUNCY,  FNIEEL  =  FELINE,  MAIDSY  =  DISMAY,  SRWPAL  =  SPRAWL   —   Giving us:  VERFTCOCFIEDIMRA

Clue/Question:  The car dealership put up new billboards to – – –

Pre-Answer:  Three Words  (5-letters)  (4-letters)  (7-letters)

Answer:  DRIVE MORE TRAFFIC

(Maybe not the punniest of puns, but I was able to get it fairly easily.  Somehow, I was able to see DRIVE right away.  Then MORE made sense.  And, from FRTCFIA I was able to come up with TRAFFIC.  Easier than some of the recent Sunday Jumbles, I’d say.

I was a little DISMAYed to find out that we actually have two new clue words today.  I hope ralis95 is reading his email!  Not so much with BOUNCY, as I kind of questioned myself as I was writing it.  But, how have we avoided FELINE all this time???  Not too surprisingly, all of the jumbles appear to be new.  Saw them all quickly, even though BOUNCY did give me some trepidation.  The answer letter layout was a beautiful sixteen letter jumble.  Definitely nothing obvious about it.

Fine cartoon.  A little reminiscent of previous cartoons that had billboards in them, but that’s alright.  It’s looking to me like it’s outside Chicago.  And, I’m sure the Tribune folks appreciate that.  Enjoy the Memorial Day weekend, folks.  But, don’t lose sight of what it’s all about.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
