Good Saturday morning everyone!  I hope the sun is shining bright and you’re enjoying a relaxing weekend so far.  The first three clue words were immediately visible, but SAILOR had me stumped for a couple of minutes.  Finding some blank space on the back of my newspaper, I wrote out the letters and finally figured it out on the 9th attempt.  Moving on to the cartoon, I attempted a blind solve but nothing came to mind.  Writing out the clue letters, the answer came instantly for a swift finish to an overall fun puzzle.  I’m still itching for that stumper of a game and it looks like we’ll have to wait until next week to get it.  Any guesses as to what the caricature is on the man’s shirt?  I’ll post a photo of it when the puzzle is published online later this morning.  Until then, please feel free to leave a comment with your best guess.  Enjoy your Saturday my friends and I’ll see you tomorrow for more Jumble fun!
