NNLBAKDAARW – DRAWN A BLANK

Good Morning, Everyone!       🐶🐱  “IT’S A DOGGONE SHAME” 🐱🐶

🎶 It’s a DOGgone shame you’re not home. It’s a DOGgone shame you left me alone…It’s a shame you’re not here, that you’re not around, sad you’re out running all over this town…It’s a DOGgone shame you’ve put me down…🎶

🐶🐱 Well look at what we have today, the Jumble Boys we get
Discussing a cartoon for us, surrounded by their pets.
I thought that Dave had cats though, so it’s a little SCREWY
Because unless I’m wrong, I don’t see Simon or Tootie.
The panel is a little BLEAK, look at those desks so clean
(ANNUL’s not going to work today, if you see what I mean…)
I know the names of Jeff’s two dogs, are Gizmo and Fifi
How nice that they all get along, no DAMAGE do we see.
Is it a cat, can I be wrong, looking at David’s feet?
This should have been so easy, and I’d just go off to eat…
But this morning seeing these three dogs, my heart just sort of sank…
I see no cat, I’ll need Jeff’s help, because I’ve DRAWN A BLANK! 🐱🐶

Ok, so I went to FETCH my paper this morning, and this is what I see:..Todays words are not RUFF, but I think the anagram of BLEAK may be NEUTER us. Very creative for 5 LITTERS. I mean letters. Ok, our cartoon…David, left, a Jumble board up on his screen, which is wired to his keyboard. Steaming cup of coffee by his side. Jeff, right, clad in a signature Wilco T-shirt, depicting the “Early Rising Since ’94” Rooster, his head COCKed to one side.  He’s holding a BLANK tablet, stylus in hand, and there’s a cell phone on his desk. And then there’s the dogs. THREE dogs. Listen, my FELINE about this? Threw my whole morning off! …I ask you, Folks, is this normal? I’ll answer you, Folks, “NO”. It’s a little SIC if you ask me. With all that I still have left to do, MEOWs not the time FUR this. I shouldn’t be CHEWsing to unscramble this cartoon. Yet, here I am! BARKING up the wrong tree… You know, my thoughts are so SCATtered, I’m just going to get right to the dialogue. Dave’s telling Jeff that he PICTURES someone eating a Butterfly, and “having a Butterfly in his stomach”. Cute. Jeff says…”Oh, no problem… I got this”… (Yes, I’ve put words into his mouth…he put doubt into my mind)…Anyway, the question states that the “artist”, Jeff, has never been at a loss for wor…Oh wait, that’s Dave. Jeff has never been at a loss for a DRAWing.  He’s never..”DRAWN A BLANK”. Clever, very clever… Good pun! Ok, eye candy. Hmm. Today? It’s what I don’t see. I’m just turning it over to Jeff. “Jeff..YELP me out here…Where’s the CAT…”?     So, There you have it, Folks, Done..Or Undone!

Have a great day, Everyone! And keep in mind…If one of your PET peeves is not being able to completely solve a puzzle, and as a result things are just not PURR-fect, PAWS for a minute, and consider this…It may not be a CATastrophe, but it is a DOGgone shame…And whoever’s responsible FUR the faux PAW, should SIT up and take responsibility. It’s the LEASH they can do….LITTERally…🐱🐶 🙋🏻
