  1. Good Morning, Everyone… 🦷 LET THE TOOTH BE KNOWN 🦷 

    🎶 Over there, over there…Send the word, send the word over there…that THE YANKS ARE COMING, THE YANKS ARE COMING… So prepare, say a prayer…Send the word, send the word TO BEWARE…🎶 “Over There” – (with apologies to) Mr George M Cohan 1917  https://tinyurl.com/2b88vybz

    🦷 Steve Martin as Scrivello…a FRIGID sort indeed,

    From “Little Shop of Horrors” ‘twas definitely a bad seed…

    ‘Twas nothing FUNNY ‘bout him, we’ve no need here to GLAZE..

    …Over his cruel, sadistic acts…his “noxious” evil ways

    Yes, write it as ITALIC, for a crawl it brought to skin…

    I feel sorry for this woman…with Scrivello FILLING IN…🦷

    Holy MOLAR…I mean moley!   https://tinyurl.com/4mkfhbxu Dr Scrivello? ORIN some circles known as “The YANKee RIPPER”! And this poor woman, Claire PAINS! God only knows the HORROR he’s going to PLANT on her! If only she knew Dr Rider was away…she could have SHOPped around for another dentist! 

    Ok…here’s the DRILL. Before anyone gets all down in the MOUTH, https://tinyurl.com/2j4mrmky because you don’t know Dr Scrivello,… https://tinyurl.com/z8t32wby FEAR not…he himself isn’t relevant to our solve…For all INTENSE and purposes, he’s just here as a dentist.  And while I’m sure some ABUSE are familiar with him, please don’t think that Jeff’s looking to PULL a fast one https://tinyurl.com/mr492jfx on us…(But I will SADIST….it’s a very witty choice…and it’s definitely ENAMEL-ed me to have a good laugh)…The character, if you need to be FILLED IN, is one Steve Martin played in “Little Shop of Horrors” https://tinyurl.com/mr3z6mn9 …take a look…And you can read about the 1986 movie here…  https://tinyurl.com/33tr449p But the reference to a dentist is definitely needed to FILL IN the blanks in today’s puzzle…so don’t just FLOSS over it…Or DENTURE’ll be sorry…

    So…you go to the dentist, as our Ms PAINS does today, and you find that your usual provider is away…and FILLING IN for him is a person you’ve never SCENE before…Do you BITE the bullet and stay…or just get out of there, lickety-SPIT?…. https://tinyurl.com/5n84eptn A tough one…PERSONally…it took me quite a while to ROOT for my dentist…and I wouldn’t sWIPE, I mean swap him for anyone…I’m simply not one of those people who’d say…”Oh, I’ve never METAL dentist I didn’t like”…No, not me…SEW I’d probably fight it TOOTH and nail…https://tinyurl.com/7e8manhn , change my PLANTS, and reschedule…

    But, once again, I digress…Today’s solve…in case you didn’t PICK up on it above? Another dentist was FILLING IN…. https://tinyurl.com/327tkus4 …And as far as our puzzle WOES? …We’ve easily taken a BITE out of another one! 

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And this puzzle reminds me of my friend who had a wrong tooth pulled. The dentist swore it was acciDENTAL…but as far as my friend’s concerned he’ll always have a BONE to PICK with the man…🦷🙋🏻‍♀️

  3. 📜 The FUNNY sign, written with an ITALIC font, started to GLAZE over from the FRIGID weather, and was going to need some FILLING IN after the storm…📜

    👕 The comedian was FUNNY, and his shirt was a big hit,
    A FRIGID winter scene it showed with streetlights dimly lit..
    The wording had ITALIC slant, a GLAZE of snow was seen,
    And they were being sold in fact, in shades of blue and green
    Seemed everything about him easily evoked a grin…
    He wowed the audience…a first…for someone FILLING IN…👕

  4. 🤦🏻‍♀️ On the list of things most people fear,
    Is the dentist…but let me be clear…
    Not the man we don’t like…
    It’s his tools…most like spikes…
    Makes the whole ordeal so hard to bear …🤦🏻‍♀️

    👍🏻 If you’re going just to have teeth checked,
    And you’re confident there’ll be no peck…
    I suppose most feel calm,
    With a sense of aplomb…
    And you’re nowhere near a nervous wreck…👍🏻

    🤷🏻‍♀️I’ve a friend name of Manny who goes,
    To the dentist without any woes…
    He enjoys it, in fact,
    We’ve all dubbed him a whack…
    And we wish we knew what Manny knows…🤷🏻‍♀️

    👎🏻 But today this dentist that we see,
    I’m sure even Manny’d look to flee…
    He’s sadistic and cruel…
    Goes against every rule…
    And I’m sure all of us do agree…👎🏻

    🤷🏻‍♀️ And to any dentist reading this,
    Know it’s “tongue-in-cheek”…and so dismiss…
    Any scorn that I’ve shown,
    …Although let it be known…
    To me, dentists?..There’ll never be bliss…🤷🏻‍♀️

  5. Great way to cap off the week Saturday of fun jumbles ! I got all the anagrams ! The last one I tried to print it , but instead, I wrote it in ITALIC ! The jumble about a dentist that was taking a position , while the other dentist was away , and he had to fix a tooth , he was both FILLING IN ! Great fun jumble to cap off the week !

  6. Another lickety-split Jumble morning…..blind solve and solved the anagrams in my head. Wow….that’s happened a couple of times recently !! I don’t remember seeing the movie, Angela, but that dentist seems frightful for sure. Nice depiction of someone not looking out after your best interests. I really like George Cohan’s music and tend to watch Yankee Doodle Dandy when it’s on T.V…..really tuneful stuff. Thanks for movie explanations. Terry

  7. As I’ve posted before,I don’t get a paper newspaper published on Saturday, so am limited to an online paper, which can cause a Jumble problem, but not today with a quick solve of the anagrams and an even quicker solve of the cartoon on a cold sub 40 degree morning in central Illinois. Chuck.

  8. Good morning. Another stop at the last word Italic so I went to the cartoon and immediately got a blind solve and knowing the three letters to complete todays task I was successful. Starting to get pretty lucky lately on the blind solves. Must be your explanation Angela on how to go about tackling the cartoon. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul…If so…glad to help! Take care. 🦷🙋🏻‍♀️

  9. I do not like what I see in your hand

    It seems you do not understand

    I’m not here for an extraction

    Hence my reaction

    This appointment is not going as planned!

  10. Yesterday I solved the anagrams, but was stuck on the answer. I set it aside, got busy, and forgot to solve it. This morning I realized it needed to be solved. After a while I found REPORT, but it still took some effort to solve it. Definitely a hard one for me.

    Today, the whole puzzle was a breeze. Quite a contrast.
