  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🤷🏻‍♂️A ROCKY START TO HIS DAY🤷🏻‍♂️

    🎶 I don’t need you to worry for me ’cause I’m alright…I don’t want you to tell me it’s time to come home…I don’t care what you say anymore THIS IS MY LIFE…Go ahead with your own life LEAVE ME ALONE…🎶 “My Life” – Mr Billy Joel 1978  https://tinyurl.com/ytvcks9m

    🤷🏻‍♂️He thought he’d get some privacy, since he too was a GUEST,

    The FACTOR though some people think they’re better than the rest…

    We see them JOSTLE their way up to Sly…without a care,

    With their CLOWN-like behavior…feeling that they belong there

    It’s not like he was hiding…either way his cover’s blown…

    All Sly wanted…some quiet time and coffee….JUST ALONE…🤷🏻‍♂️

    Today’s brilliant solve may not register with some at first…but as a PUNCH line?…It’s treRAMBOus! 

    So…With the words “star”. “Rocky”, https://tinyurl.com/43r2d85c and “Rambo”https://tinyurl.com/5fv9u3cv in our question, there’s no doubt who’s featured here today. Sylvester StALLONE… https://tinyurl.com/ye6h2kz2  sitting outdoors at a resort, lamenting the fact that he didn’t choose to have his coffee inside. Thinking he might have found a place where he could enjoy his morning brew and work his puzzles, he’s obviously put out that his peace and quiet is ruined by some silly, overly zealous fans…he in a Rambo headband, she mimicking the iconic Rocky stance…Granted, yes…when push comes to GLOVE, I mean shove, he is a public figure..but he had hoped that this remote seaside location might afford him privacy. All he wanted was a place to be…JUST ALONE…JU-STALONE! And you have to admit, it’s a very clever take on his name…and a very witty solve…So, if you didn’t see that coming…and you’re having a ROCKY start to your day? …Well, I guess you’ll just have to TAKE IT ON THE CHIN… https://tinyurl.com/y45xfmyw …because IMO, this one’s a KNOCKOUT! 

    Jeff’s💎Gems? The Sinking Sailboat out there always does it for me….but today, something else MOVIED, oh sorry, typo…moved me more. Sly’s paper…he’s on the puzzle page. And he’s doing them in pen! I definitely CHAMPION that! …And besides a Jumble, there’s a “Boggle Brain Buster”https://tinyurl.com/yvxr4yhe game, another one of David & Jeff’s daily challenges. But if you look closely… The set of letters, three down, going across? They spell, “ANGE”…Now that’s a HIT! 

    So…There you have it Folks…Done. Have a good one. Be well, be kind, stay safe…And this puzzle has me thinking of the conversation I read about that took place between Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Arnold Schwarzenegger..They had an idea to script a movie about classical composers. Sly said, “I’ll play Vivaldi”. Jean-Claude said, “I’ll be Mozart”, and Arnold?…C’mon…you gotta know what Arnold said…Arnold said…”I’ll be BACH”…🤷🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🤦🏻‍♂️Wanting to be JUST ALONE, the FACTOR that his wife had a GUEST who was acting like a CLOWN was enough to JOSTLE his nerves..🤦🏻‍♂️

    🤡 The GUEST who came dressed as a CLOWN?…He lived up to its name,
    The others he would JOSTLE…as if it were a game…
    The FACTOR definitely noticed, people wished that he’d go home…
    He proved to be the type of guest best to stay JUST ALONE! 🤡

  4. 🎬 So…Hollywood…with its battle cry,
    Hooray is the word…do or die…
    But too often it sucks,
    ‘Cause with box-office luck?…
    One loses that sense of just “I”…🎬

    🎟️ Along with the fame comes a price,
    For the fan base is always enticed…
    And they feel no holds barred,
    So they often discard…
    A star’s privacy, to be precise…🎟️

    🤷🏻‍♂️With a confidence that’s so abrupt,
    They feel ok to just interrupt…
    Any star that they see,
    Doesn’t matter if he…
    Surely don’t want the foolish disrupt…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🤦🏻‍♂️And today we see it’s Sly Stallone,
    Yes, it’s granted he’s very well-known….
    But he just wants some peace,
    Yet these fans do release…
    An intrusion on his comfort zone…🤦🏻‍♂️

    🤷🏻‍♂️But it seems to be the price stars pay,
    Always subject to fans nosy ways…
    And that quiet Sly sought?
    Looks like it’s def a naught…
    Here’s to hoping it won’t ruin his day…🤷🏻‍♂️

  5. Wow ! What a no-hump Wednesday ! I was very happy ! The jumble was easy if you know the actor , which I’m sure everyone does , who played the main character in Rocky and Rambo movies ! Slyvester Stallone! And that gave it right to me ! What a great mid-week jumble ! And Angela your Billy Joel song was really good ! And I am so glad you are BACH ! Your post was very informative ! This was a great jumble day ! So let’s all get our glasses for a thirsty-Thursday jumble !!!!!

  6. Yes, a witty, wittle puzzle today…Got a blind solve, but truthfully, the solution didn’t make sense right away…until I thought a bit about it. Funny “I’ll be Bach” joke. You could also have played the Rocky Theme, too. Very nice post for all the subscribers today. Have a pleasant Hump Day, Angela. Terry

  7. Good morning. The queen of puns is back.Hope your feeling great. Perfect song choice and you did get me to smile big with your Bach pun. I was stuck on the last word (who knows why) and I went to the cartoon and came up with what I thought was the blind solve. Knowing the two letters I needed I finally came up with the last word. Until tomorrow take care.

  8. Another fun Jumble today and an informative post. I always need the magnifying glass to find the items that you point out. The puzzle picture is not real big in the newspaper.
    Thank you for the link to Billy Joel’s song. It’s fun to watch that video from his younger years.

    Thanks

    Stan

    • Stan…YW, and thank you. And I’m seeing all the details because I’m looking at an online copy of the puzzle that I’m able to enlarge. It’d be impossible to see it all from the paper copy. 🙋🏻‍♀️

      • I have to comment on that too ! I index finger /thumb emlarge all your detail description of the cartoon ! On line , I use the magnifying glass for too many other things ! Other than that , ditto on stans comment !

  9. An easy midweek Jumble w a quick solve of all this morning. Wishing all a good Wednesday! Chuck.

  10. I suppose it’s the price of fame

    When everyone knows your name

    You can try to disguise

    Your hair and your eyes

    But they’ll spot you just the same!

    (And then there are some who crave

    A smile and a friendly wave

    But no one gives a glance

    Not the slightest chance

    No matter how they behave!)

    —-All the lonely people……
