  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🏄🏻‍♂️🏄🏻 A GOOD TIDE WAS HAD BY ALL! 🏄🏻🏄🏻‍♂️

    🎶 If everybody had an ocean across the USA…Then everybody’d be surfin’… SURFIN’ USA….🎶 “Surfin’ USA” – The Beach Boys 1963 https://tinyurl.com/5f4eruxb

    🏄🏻‍♂️🏄🏻Yes, patience def is needed here, no place for a TIRADE,
    Just sit and wait it out…enjoy the water as you wade…
    They’d read up on behavior, articles through which they’d SCROLL,
    Had given them the WHIRL needed to really rock and roll…
    A light breakfast of WHEAT and tea…they’re braced now with true grit…
    And seeing that wave closing in? Know that it’s “SWELL” WORTH IT! 🏄🏻🏄🏻‍♂️

    Yesterday’s comments had me thinking that some of you…especially if choosing to solve the puzzle without doing the words first…may be missing the forest for the “tease”…I’d say probably 90% of the time, the answer is going to be a well-worn phrase or idiom, and if you think along that line, the solve should fall right into your lap. Yesterday, for example…RAISED THE BAR, Tuesday, AND SO FOURTH…commonly used idioms, and if you just take the time to absorb the question and the dialogue, you sometimes don’t even need the cartoon to DRAW you in…Like our surfers here today, it just takes a little patience…And when there’s those quotation marks in play, it just adds to the fun/pun….Anyway…if going for that automatic read just causes frustration, and it comes down to SINK or SWIM, why make WAVES…It’s not WORTH it…and it may be best to just heed what’s written above the answer circles of each puzzle…instead of going around in them…It might SUIT you better…Ok, enough of my STREAM of consciousness…I just thought it might be WELL WORTH IT to bring it up….

    So…Today, once again, we’re looking at a WELL known idiom…WELL WORTH IT, https://tinyurl.com/rzu57rcz …in this case the result of having patience..”our patience is going to PAY OFF”… WADING out that “perfect wave”…And as far as our quotation marks go…a SWELL https://tinyurl.com/4s4ca9t5 is water that rears up and breaks, forming WAVES… beTIDES it meaning how good something is.. https://tinyurl.com/4yjf2yms “Catch a good one” …So…put it all together and…Voila! We’ve BROKEN down another one! And all without a WIPEOUT, or being BOARD…The time spent WADING for that wave…was “SWELL” WORTH IT…

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And I hope y’all had a good TIDE with our puzzle today…WATER great way to end the WAKE…I mean the week! 🏄🏻‍♂️🏄🏻🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🤦🏻‍♀️The TIRADE started when she decided to SCROLL through her iPad looking for the WHEAT pie recipe, only to find that it was hardly WELL WORTH IT when she discovered that her daughter had replaced it with a recipe for Chocolate Pecan WHIRL..🤦🏻‍♀️

    🤷🏻‍♂️ The new campaign for WHEAT Puffs had them going in a WHIRL,
    They tried to SCROLL through photos looking for some boys and girls…
    Shown eating cereal…but then a TIRADE soon took place,
    The supervisor nixed it all…the whole campaign erased
    He opted for a video showing a screen that’d be split…
    The cost might be more…but he said it would be WELL WORTH IT…🤷🏻‍♂️

  3. 🌊When the quest is for the perfect wave,
    It’s some patience a surfer must save…
    Just relax and bide time,
    ‘Til you see water climb…
    And you’ll catch the swell that you do crave…🌊

    🤷🏻‍♀️Sometimes waiting can really stretch out,
    But a surfer must know not to pout…
    Hope the wind will blow right,
    And then grip your board tight…
    And with luck you’ll stay steady en route…🤷🏻‍♀️

    🧘🏻‍♂️See our couple in water not deep,
    Waiting patiently for that great sweep…
    That’ll carry them up,
    And you’ll hear them say, “Yup…
    Finally got one that’s good ‘nuff to keep”! 🧘🏻‍♂️

    🏄🏻‍♂️Hopefully our pair gets to hang ten,
    And tomorrow they’ll do it again…
    Always seeking the thrill,
    Never getting their fill…
    It’s not if with them…it’s always when…🏄🏻‍♂️

    🏄🏻‍♂️🏄🏻Was it worth it, the time spent in wait…
    Looking to catch that one wave so great?
    Must be…’cause day after day,
    We see out on the bay…
    Surfers looking the desire sate…🏄🏻🏄🏻‍♂️

  5. Thanks for your posting about blind solves. Personally, I don’t think it’s an “either/or” subject. I certainly don’t give up after seeing that I’m not going to get the blind solve today. I give it a try…then do the anagrams…then the cartoon puzzle. I will say that sometimes I need more than patience to keep afloat. If it doesn’t come in a minute or two…I’m off to the anagrams.

    All that said, I got the SWELL today, but no further because I didn’t think of WELL in place of SWELL. So I spelled out SWELL THROW, and missed the WORTH IT idiom. But that’s what makes it so fun (I guess). Enjoy hummin’ the Beach Boys today. What great harmony !!

    • You have to think idioms, Terry, first and foremost. David loves them…as do I…My friends refer to me as the IDIOM SAVANT! And The Beach Boys? Always WELL WORTH IT! 🏄🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

    • PS…”Keep afloat”…👏🏻👏🏻! 🏄🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

  6. Trouble spelling the anagrams and then stumped by the multi lettered cartoon along with the first word in quotes.All in all not a Good Friday Jumble.

  7. Hello Friday ! Well I wish I had a Wave of good solves to end the weekdays , but I’m afraid I don’t ! I got the anagrams ok , except the one had my mind in a TIRADE ! The jumble , not knowing the surfing lingo about a wave that’s Swells , had me falling off the surfboard! It was a fun one , It just didn’t splash ! Anyway , you definitely cannot go wrong with The Beach Boys song , Angela ! I’m ready to cap the week off tomorrow and I’ll Wave this one goodby ! Everyone have a great Friday and Surf it well !!!!

    • Tks, Jim.. They always made beautiful music. “Swell” isn’t surfing lingo…it just has to do with the ocean itself. It’s the idiom that made the solve. But I have a question. You refer to Saturday as the day that “caps the week off”. If so, what do you consider the weekend to be? Just Sunday? Isn’t the weekEND 2 days? Just curious about the reasoning. And the names…there’s some sort of fluke with Word Press…hopefully it’ll be corrected…🏄🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

      • Officially , the weekend starts Friday evening and ends Monday morning ! I just never acknowledged Sunday as part of it , that’s where I came up with Saturday to cap it off ! I’m sure it’s not official , that just my thing , so I’ll reword my comments as more fitting ! Thanks for the thoughts !

        • No need to, Jim…I was just trying to get a bead on your reasoning. But not acknowledge Sundays? The humanity! 😂

  8. Good morning. Breezed through the words but spent a long time on the cartoon answer. I had Worth for the first word then switched to Swell Worth but couldn’t come up for the two letter word. Finally switched to the final answer of “swell” worth it. It took some doing but worth it. Like your song choice Angela. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. Tk you. And yes, definitely well worth sticking it out…It’s a very clever pun! Take care and stay safe out there. The air quality is horrendous…🏄🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

  9. Clever puzzle this morning. Saw worth it first so that left swell. I’m an anagram first kind of Jumbler. Love those Beach Boys. “We’ll have fun fun fun till Daddy takes the T-Bird Away”. Happy Friday all!
