  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🧛🏻‍♂️ PAYING BLOOD MONEY?🧛🏻‍♂️

    🎶 There been times that I thought I couldn’t last for long, but now, I think I’m able to carry on…It’s been a long, a long time coming, but I know…A CHANGE GON COME…Oh yes, it will…🎶 …” A Change Is Gonna Come” – Sam Cooke 1964 https://tinyurl.com/mcz4sxty 

    🧛🏻‍♂️The SUMMER time brings festivals and music can be heard, 

    And Dracula is planning something that is quite absurd…

    He’s buying light-WEIGHT clothing, forsaking standard black,
    Intending to blend into crowds…and set up his attacks…
    With pointed teeth like PRAWN tails, he’s hoping he can bite,
    Let’s hope that he might WAVER with this plan that’s just not right…
    How dastardly a deed for sure..like when he paid that primage,
    Those years ago to hide on ships…all to REVAMP HIS IMAGE…🧛🏻‍♂️

    With Wilco’s “Sound Stage Festival” https://tinyurl.com/5yvnz4pp returning soon to Massachusetts, it seems Dracula intends to SINK HIS TEETH into it…only the music isn’t what he’s looking forward to…And according to our puzzle…what is? Ok…I said, I’ll BITE…

    So…Today…It’s Dracula, https://tinyurl.com/yc5nvdsc the infamous VAMPire, no stranger to the Jumble, at his local BOOtique, in the MARKet for a HOLE new outfit…Trying to esCAPE his usual IMAGE of the “Man in Black”, he’s hoping that a new look will help him BLOOD, I mean blend in with music festival attendees. So he’s donned a Wilco 2024 kangaroo-pocketed hoodie, figuring he’ll just be taken for another music lover…Hmm…perhaps…as long as he doesn’t open his mouth to sing along…And I’m not referring to the BAT breath either…It’s those teeth…No FANG you! BeCROSS they’re definitely a DEAD-giveaway! But he’s COFFIN up the money just the same, determined to…”change” …to REVAMP HIS IMAGEhttps://tinyurl.com/3vdz38m9And as far as what we needed to bRING us to this solve today? Queasy, I mean easy, breezy…It’s Dracula, he’s a VAMPire, and between that and his dialogue of “fitting in” = changing his IMAGE? There’s no sticking our NECKS out here today! It wasn’t HEART at all!

    Jeff’s💎Gems? You have to REFLECT on the fact that Jeff doesn’t have him facing the mirrors…brilliant!…And you can’t help but appreciate the dialogue of the saleswoman, whose name on her tag unfortunately I can’t make out….so I’ll just call her BATTY Boop. Wilco https://tinyurl.com/5dre2yb5 is Jeff’s favorite rock band, but if you don’t get the reference to “Rock Dad”, and are curious, read here. https://tinyurl.com/bdehwvk7 As for BATTY saying that the look “suits him”? Yeah, sure…you have to know she’s just SUCKING up, looking to TAKE A BITE OUT of those commissions…And as far as the new outfit goes? If you look closely, you’ll see there’s price tags on the hoodie, the pants, and the sneakers. He’s definitely NECKed, I mean decked out. And Drac’s black clothing and cane can be seen lying on a bench. But you especially have to love the bat 🦇 earring HANGING from his PIERCEd ear…Another little touch proving how, when it comes to whimsy, Jeff’s so much BATter at it than the NEST…I mean the rest…One can’t help but ROOST for him! 

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…and I’ll leave you with a bat TAIL…A bat walks into a bar, looks at the menu and tells the bartender he’ll have a MOSQUITO. The bartender tells him it’s pronounced mojito, which prompts the bat to say that he’s never heard that before. The bartender says, “What, no way…where do you live… under A ROCK”? The bat replies, “Well actually, I live in the CAVES across the street”. The bartender then tells him how he was thinking about building  a house near there, but it’s so expensive an area. To which the bat replies, “Well, you know what they say about Bat Real Estate it’s all ECHO LOCATION, ECHO LOCATION, ECHO LOCATION”…* 🧛🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🍤 Always looking to REVAMP HIS IMAGE, he was now going for Grill Master, but the WEIGHT of the SUMMER heat today caused him to WAVER with his intention of preparing barbecued PRAWN…🍤

    🤦🏻‍♂️The fire’s flame did WAVER, the SUMMER breeze so cool,
    Enjoying his PRAWN dinner…he felt slightly look a fool…
    His bragging that he’d lose the WEIGHT now causing him to scrimmage…
    …Within himself…since he failed trying to REVAMP HIS IMAGE…🤦🏻‍♂️

  4. …AND OUT OF THE ARCHIVES…🔠🙋🏻‍♀️
    Another close one to take a BITE OUT OF…The puzzle of February 27th, 2015. “Dracula’s image was on the decline, so he decided to”…REVAMP IT…Sorry, no IMAGE…You know Dracula has no REFLECTION! 😉🧛🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

  5. 🧛🏻‍♂️He’s a vampire of quite renown,
    With his black cape as long as a gown…
    And he’s out for a neck,
    Saying, “Oh, what the heck…
    I’m bored…need a night on the town”…🧛🏻‍♂️

    🤷🏻‍♂️He’s decided to change up his look,
    Hoping maybe he can be mistook…
    For just an average Joe,
    And to festivals go…
    And fit into a cranny or nook…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🩸 So we’re seeing Dracula today,
    Trying on clothes he’s hoping will sway…
    The festival crowd,
    And amidst music loud…
    He’ll luck out and score a payday!🩸

    🦷Dons a hoodie and likes what he sees,
    Thinking his plan will def be a breeze…
    And he’s ready to roll,
    Surely take a toll…
    Biting anyone simply with ease…🦷

    🤞🏻Here’s to hoping his plan fails to be,
    And he’s not out there gnawing on thee…
    Plan to cover your neck,
    So that he with his dreck…
    Finds another outlet for ennui…🤞🏻

    • Believe it or not I have never ever gone fishing. My family wasn’t a fishing family but an avid bowling and golfing family, thus my interest in those activities rather than fishing. Chuck.

      • You’re not alone, Professor. Most of my family bowl and golf, but they don’t fish…🙋🏻‍♀️

  6. No tacos today ! I really thought I had the solution ! The anagrams were all good except I had to raise an eyebrow on PRAWN ! The rest were there though ! Now the jumble was fun and I thought I had it but it didn’t make that much sense ! I thought it was VAMPIRE (HIS) GAME ! But that didn’t connect ! So I had to look it up ! And it was good , but it was not there for me to see it ! But this week is going to be great so I’ll be ready ! And Angela your bat joke was batty funny ! Your post was as always very entertaining and analytical ! So I’m ready for a no-hump Wednesday jumble ! Everyone have a great taco-Tuesday !!!!!

  7. It’s a great Taco Tuesday with another blind solve to notch on my holster. Dracula is one of my favorite figures and I still have my Bram Stoker book purchased while in high school way back when. I figured out IMAGE as a start, then saw a V in one of the anagrams to conjure up the VAMP. Really like Sam Cooke’s work, but unfamiliar with today’s song. Nice weaving about bat lore today, Angela…fun reading. Terry

  8. Good morning. No problem with the words and had a half blind solve. I thought the answer was change his image. After putting down the letters I see it was “Revamp his Image”. Enjoyed your post Angela and was surprised that I never heard that song from him before. I’m wondering if it was a “B” side to one of his better hits. Until tomorrow take care.

  9. Got the anagrams but thought the cartoon solution was improve his image rather than revamp his image. Stay cool out there! Chuck.

  10. REVAMP his IMAGE? I guess that was his VAMPIRE GAME. He was trying to be a MEGAVAMPIRE, but he falls short of that.

  11. Yes, my get-up is looking quite dated

    And I don’t want to be underrated

    I want to get it just right

    Something sharp and with bite

    So a new look I will have created!

  12. Love the idea of a vampire cruising music festivals for quick bite, sounds like a great idea for a horror comedy movie. Anyway, nice to see ol’ Drac shopping outside the Hot Topic these days. Also, surprised more people aren’t familiar with Sam Cooke’s “A change Is Gonna Come” a real classic from that period of soul music, 1963-64.

  13. Like Chuck, I guessed the answer was’improve his IMAGE’, but after getting the anagrams, I found that I had to REVAMP my answer.

  14. Clever puzzle today – Revamp indeed, too funny. Happy Tuesday all! Betty

  15. Happy home run solves today, fun topic. Loved the echo location (location, location, location) close! 🤣🤣🤣
