🎨 He was wily as a COUGAR, a FUSION of various traits,
He kept them on the run for years…but now had met his fate…
He didn’t SKIMP on paintings, and BATTY they had been,
At last though they’ve now nabbed him near the banks of River Seine…

So…France…and we see the CON (= SCAM) man, FEIGN Brady, being arrested by two enforcement agents of ARI – Art Recovery International… https://tinyurl.com/bmcz44p9 for trying to pass his paintings off as having been done by Picasso….And him saying they’re drawings for an art class? Please…No wonder the agent’s telling him..,”CU BIST save it for the judge”…Since after years of searching for him, it was a STROKE of luck, a GOOD TIP that DREW them to France, where they’ve caught him red-handed.

Terrific taco-Tuesday ! All the anagrams were fun except COUGAR, then I felt we’ve had it before and I always raised an eyebrow but then my brain remembers it ! So the only one i couldn’t get gave me a CON , cause it was Confusuon ! Then everything went smooth ! The jumble with a con man was a fake artist gave me SCAM ARTIST me ! Great taco -Tuesday ! And Angela , you can never go wrong with Nat king Cole ! He’s so talented ! Yes , David put a good one together today ! So let’s all get some tacos and have a no-hump Wednesday !
It wasn’t a real, stellar Jumble day on Taco Tuesday. I immediately saw the ARTIST word, and I think the word SCAM was tossed around in the mix, but wasn’t for sure. I started unscrambling the anagrams to find FUSION too tough for me today. That said, I took out ARTIST and SCAM was left, but still didn’t back in FUSION. Oh well…listening to Nat made up for it. Thanks for a good song and noteworthy post, Angela. Terry
YW, Terry…and thank you. 🎨🙋🏻♀️
An easy solve of all this morning, happy Taco Tuesday to all! Chuck.
