ITPEN = INEPT
CERYM = MERCY
HATURO = AUTHOR
TYACCH = CATCHY
CARTOON ANSWER:
INERUTATH = UNEARTH IT
Good Wednesday morning everyone! The clue word choices were excellent today and very well jumbled. I don’t recall seeing AUTHOR or INEPT recently and they may be new to the game. I didn’t have any trouble with them and it was straight to the cartoon. Looking at the letters available to me, IT was my first guess for the two letter word. UNEARTH was easy to see after that for a fantastic finish. Did anyone notice the alien skull that Jeff slipped into the puzzle? It may have been difficult to see in the newspaper version of the cartoon but it was clearly visible in the online one. I really enjoyed the dark and crisp black background as well — great outer space feel. Take care and I’ll see you tomorrow! 😀🚀👽
Took me over an hour to get author for my last word. Thought maybe having breakfast at the same time interferd but it wasn’t eating that “froze” my brain like the ice on the moon. Got the answer in under fifteen minutes though. Now to check if my friend got the answer.
Hi Paul! Good job on getting the answer. Did your friend get it? Have a great day! 😁
Mercy, what a fun puzzle, even though inept and author took some extra staring at. When I saw the skull I thought I was just imagining that it was a skull.
Good luck with your Christmas shopping, and be warm. See ‘ya!
Just thinking the “Pink Floyd” guys would enjoy the puzzle…
