  1. Good Morning, Everyone…📚 READ ‘EM AND REAP! 📚

    🎶 Talk in everlasting WORDS…And dedicate them all to me…And I will give you all my life, I’m here if you should call to me…You think that I don’t even MEAN a single WORD I say…It’s only WORDS, and WORDS are all I have to take your heart away…🎶 “Words” – (The) Bee Gees 1977 https://tinyurl.com/y2wjclc3

    📚 Driven to give each person an easy way to find,
    A SENSE of understanding words and just how they can rhyme,
    Our Noah raised the BANNER and started a courtship,
    ‘Tween spelling and defining…and all at one’s fingertips…
    A SOCIAL tool, his dictionary ran the GAMUT true,
    From A to Z a compilation one could just flip through
    We hear him saying it’s a start…and they’ll be more to press…
    For Noah there was no doubting…he definitely MEANT BUSINESS! 📚

    As any die-hard Jumble aficionado knows, NOAH is NOAH stranger here. We’ve READ through many a puzzle where he’s graced our PAGES, and mark my WORDS, I’m sure we’ll see him again. ‘Cause when it comes to The Merriam-WEBSTER Dictionary, David’s an open BOOK…

    So…NOAH WEBSTER https://tinyurl.com/9jsa6psv as our main character today…And as I live and READ, it never gets old. When you have a love affair with, and are in the BUSINESS of, words, as I, it’s always a DEFINING moment when he appears…

    Circa, 1828…and we find ourselves in the office of Mr Webster, listening in as he discusses the selling of his modern dictionary, “American Dictionary of The English Language”. https://tinyurl.com/munjvb2v …(said title can be seen on the books, if you look closely)…. And not one to mince WORDS, he’s heard saying that this is just another PAGE from his story…that he’s looking FORWARD to bigger and better things….and he’s clearly SPELLING out his plans…And as far as our solve goes? His dictionary served to tell what words MEANT…and yes, the sales? Good BUSINESS…Bottom LINE? Noah Webster “seriously”…MEANT BUSINESShttps://tinyurl.com/ypswz2bs

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And rumor has it that Webster’s Dictionary has changed the spelling of Aquarius to Ahquarius…Hmm…. This is the donning of the “H” of Ahquarius….📚🙋🏻‍♀️

  3. 🚩The SOCIAL Club MEANT BUSINESS when designing it’s new BANNER, having a SENSE of wanting to run the GAMUT while listing it’s accomplishments…🚩

    👍🏻The GAMUT of feelings in place, he felt that it only made SENSE,
    For him to become much more SOCIAL, not hide behind veils of pretense…
    A BANNER year is what he hoped for, determined to not accept less…
    He went forth with a new resolve, to show he MEANT BUSINESS…👍🏻

  4. 📚 When you’re searching for just the right word,
    And your vision may slightly be blurred…
    Dictionaries are key,
    From the A to the Z…
    Guaranteeing you won’t sound absurd…📚

    👏🏻👏🏻 Noah Webster, a talented man,
    Definitely no flash-in-the-pan…
    Words important to him,
    He went out on a limb…
    And watched everything go on as planned…👏🏻👏🏻

    👍🏻 He compiled a book for the masses,
    Til this day that’s still used in most classes…
    A political sort,
    Always quick with retort…
    Never hiding ‘hind rose colored glasses…👍🏻

    🔠 Studied law, but for Noah it paled,
    It was words that he truly did hail…
    Put his love to the test,
    And well we know the rest….
    Webster’s Dictionary hasn’t failed…🔠

    🧢 So to Noah, we def tip our cap,
    For he’s laid words right into our lap…
    Be it spelling or pun,
    We turn to number one…
    Webster’s always the book that’s on tap! 🧢

  5. Not a good week for me , starting with Wednesday! Todays jumble had me going to the dictionary for answers ! The first anagram describes my thoughts in a GAMUT ! The Noah dictionary was just not coming out for one -word,for,word ! Let’s cap off the week tomorrow on Saturday and end it with a new start next week ! Angela I liked your BeeGees song choice and also your joke song choice ! Ha ha ! Everyone have a great reading day ! Look it up !

  6. I first looked at anagrams, but spotted no “D” so the word DEFINE wasn’t a part of the solution. From there, gave up going for a blind solve, unscrambled the anagrams and found the answer….as BUSINESS popped out for me. Yes, Angela, for that love affair with words, you’re in hog heaven today !! It’s amazing how they hold sway over our lives, not only with conversation, but with puzzles and such. Must listen to the BeeGees song…and enjoyed your little joke. Have a great TGIF

    • LOL! Hog Heaven! Love the alliteration! Tk you, Terry…Wishing you a great day too…📚🙋🏻‍♀️

  7. You know that I mean what I say
    Meaning’s black and white but not grey
    The books I will sell
    And time will sure tell
    That my efforts will handsomely pay!

  8. Good morning. I was able to get the words with not much difficulty but was unable to come up with a blind solve. After awhile I was able to see business among the letters then the remaining ones gave me meant. Enjoyed your song choice as usual and your posts. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. Tk you. Glad you figured it out…Take care and have a good one. 📚🙋🏻‍♀️

  9. Wow 2 in a row successful anagram and cartoon solves!Hopefully as Arnold S said, “I’m back.”

    • Prof…I see you’re coming in as Anonymous also…I’ve no idea why! 🤷🏻‍♀️

  10. Wow 2 successful jumble days in a row with a clean sweep of the anagrams and cartoon.

      • Somehow I was directed to an anonymous response,and then finally I was able to reply and login?Don’t know why. Chuck.

        Sent from my iPad

        • I don’t either Prof…and you see it happened to Paul too…I hope it’s corrected itself..,🤷🏻‍♀️

  11. Had to put on my thinking cap today 🧢 because I misread banner as barren -saw two r’s instead of 2 n’s. Figured Business had to be the longer word so once I corrected my error, everything fell into place nicely. Have a Good Friday all!

    • Hi Betty..I deleted the other comment because it had your email address. I have no idea what’s causing it to happen. It’s odd that it didn’t affect everyone though..🤷🏻‍♀️

      • Thank you MIss Angela. When I click Reply it gives me three choices : “Leave a reply’ (log in optional) below that there is s W – a F (Facebook?) and the little mail sign. I clicked on the mail sign and it said it I put my e-mail address it would not be published. I don’t know what’s going on. Weird.

        • YW, Betty…me either…and unfortunately I can’t see any of the choices you’re speaking of. so I can’t even offer any advice. Word Press is so flaky…Maybe until it straightens itself out it’s best to go with Anonymous/log in optional and state your name in the comment…just in case I can’t recognize the IP address…Weird indeed! 🤦🏻‍♀️
