Jumble Answers for 01/17/2017

VAROB = BRAVO

BUDTO = DOUBT

NIYTEN = NINETY

GOLUNE = LOUNGE

CARTOON ANSWER:

RAODOUINLN = “LION” AROUND

Good morning and happy Tuesday!  I’m excited to get back into the groove after such a long weekend so let’s see what the Jumble has in store for us today.  Great word choices this morning with NINETY being one of my favorites.  I didn’t have and problems deciphering them and quickly moved on to the cartoon.  Jeff drew a wonderful Lion King scene and I didn’t need to use the clue letters to solve the puzzle after reading the caption.  I filled in my answer and then wrote out my letters just to make sure I was correct.  Everything fell into place quickly and the puzzle was finished.  Did you notice the easter egg in the background that depicts someone or something perched on the ledge?  I had to look real close at both the online puzzle and my newspaper copy and my best guess is that it’s Rafiki holding his staff.  Let me know what you think and I’ll see you tomorrow!  😀

  1. Ditto on solving by picture only, LION came real quickly. Cannot see the really small stuff in the pic, need young eyes!

    • When it said African feline, I knew immediately what it was. With “LION” being part of the pun, I figured it was ABOUT or AROUND. There were only a few words that would have fit. Have a great day, Harry. 😊👍🏻

  2. Had the answer before I started the words. Had it “completed” quickly until I realized entity was really ninety! No sub 1 minute today with the mistake. Guess I better slow down!

  3. Very clever indeed. Only had problem with Lounge. Nope, I’m not really good with Jumbles yet, and it takes a little time for me to “fit the answer” with the picture! But am doing better and enjoy the jumble everyday!

  4. Good morning. Another simple one. I was into the cartoon solving part about five minutes because of the puns first word when my friend called me instead of the other way around. I opted to hear her final answer. Tomorrow brings a new one. Take care.

  5. Welcome back! Had trouble with BRAVO. Under strong magnification the little critter looked like a monkey so we agree with you that it is the baboon Rafiki with his staff. Have a great rest of the day.

    • It’s so great to be back, Lelia! It’s nice to hear from everyone again and most of all being able to help our friends (in a timely manner) who get stuck and come here for some help. Have a great day! 😊

  6. Glad to hear your comments again. We have missed them for the past few days. Today, I worked the words but just as I got them all, he shouted out the answer.
