  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🗣️THE AGONY OF DE FEET? 🗣️

    🎶STRAIGHTEN UP and fly right…🎶…”Straighten Up and Fly Right” – Mr Nat King Cole (original recording) 1943  https://tinyurl.com/4bdjrpfy

    🗣️The Sgt quick to THRASH someone, a CYNIC to no end,

    Whether it four men or FORTY…he barks…and never bends

    Not one to be DEFIED at all, orders always expected…

    But this poor private here today? He’s going to STAND CORRECTED…🗣️

    A SLOUCH potato…who’s definitely getting FRIED…

    So…Today…Boot camp, Sgt STAN N DELIVER, and Pvt George STRAIGHT…who seems to be a bit under pressure. Newly inducted, he’s having a little trouble getting used to all the STIFFulations, and gets caught up in a bit of a BACKslide…But being reprimanded, he sees the error of his SWAYs, and is quick to STAND up straight, CORRECT his posture, and give the Sgt his full ATTENTION…Our Pvt was going to STAND CORRECTEDhttps://tinyurl.com/3krmawpb …And this one’s so easy, breezy, we could have sat it out…I’m sure you had no trouble at TALL…

    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 newly inducted into the Army was shown a film about syphilis. Being a good, young Jewish boy, it scared him to no end…and he began to panic. His bunk mate, Bubba, a Southern Christian, who wasn’t present for the show, said, “Calm down, I have a medical textbook, I’ll look it up and see what we can find out.” A few minutes later he told my friend he had nothing to worry about. “What do you mean I have nothing to worry about”, my friend answered, “It’s killing people”. “Trust me”, Bubba answered, “It says right here…it’s a disease of the GENTILES”…And with it being both Passover and Holy Week, with all due respect,  I trust no one takes offense…I covered the RACES…🗣️🙋🏻‍♀️

    …And a Shout🗣️Out to David…All new anagrams today…🔠🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. AND OUT OF THE ARCHIVES…🔠🙋🏻‍♀️

    ° …The puzzle of October 5th, 2014…”He told his wife there wouldn’t be a line to see the movie, but he would”…STAND CORRECTED…

    ° …And the puzzle of June 29th, 2017…This🤏🏻close…”He told his wife there wouldn’t be a long line, but he”…STOOD CORRECTED… https://tinyurl.com/3kubn5s2 🔠🙋🏻‍♀️

  3. 🤷🏻‍♂️The FORTY members…each and every one a CYNIC…were all forced to STAND CORRECTED after they DEFIED the chairman and tried to THRASH his reputation…🤷🏻‍♂️

    👍🏻The man had just turned FORTY, DEFIED the signs of age,
    Had no need to THRASH anything…always on the right page
    Followed the rules…ran a tight ship…kept himself well protected…
    And through the years?…No CYNIC…So no cause to STAND CORRECTED…👍🏻

  5. ⏰ Every morning it’s the same old thing,
    When at 5:45 alarms ring…
    And recruits take their places,
    In wide open spaces…
    And wait to see what morning brings…⏰ 

    🧍🏻‍♂️It’s usually stand still and wait,
    And hope the Sgt won’t berate…
    Anyone of the group,
    Making up Sgt’s troop…
    As they all remain so ramrod straight…🧍🏻‍♂️

    🗣️But today we see George with a slouch,
    Just enough to set off the old grouch…
    Sgt Stan don’t play games, 
    So he puts George to shame…
    And poor George…well he only can vouch…🗣️

    🤷🏻‍♂️…”Yes, Sir..sorry, my error for sure,
    And I’ll stand straight…that I can assure…
    Just a bit of a lapse,
    Sorry I caused a flap…
    And I won’t be slouching any more”…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🤦🏻‍♂️Army life…yes, it’s no piece of cake,
    From the moment a private awakes…
    It’s orders down the line,
    And our George he did find…
    That there’s no place for any mistake…🤦🏻‍♂️

  6. Nice Saturday to cap the week off with a solve ! The anagrams were there except I had trouble with CYNIC and DEFIELD ! The jumble came right out with the two words that were opposite of Slouchy , STAND and CORRECTED came right to me ! This one was a nice end of the week jumble with Sunday to top it off ! Your song Angela , was right on with Nat king Cole ! And your friend better find another job ! Very fun !

  7. I finished unscrambling the words and immediately jumped on START, to go down the wrong rabbit hole. This isn’t helping my Jumble statistics much. And yes, Syphilis…pretty debilitating for young army recruits, hence the lectures and films. Great story, Angela. And great NKC song, and can’t quite believe it goes back to the early 40’s. Enjoy your Easter Weekend Saturday. A lot of cooking going on ??? Terry

  8. ‘Defied’ stumped me but after looking that up I was able to solve the multi lettered cartoon. Happy Holy Saturday to one and all. Chuck.

  9. Good morning. I had to look up cynic but was able to get the rest and the cartoon answer as well. Thank you Angela for that hidden treasure of NKC. Tomorrow is not only Easter for the christians but the Greeks and Jewish people as well. A trifecta of the holiest of most high. Have a great Easter and until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. YW, and Tk you. Take care. 🗣️🙋🏻‍♀️

  10. Good morning. I had the anagrams but, just like Terry, I had myself stuck on the word Start and couldn’t come up with the cartoon solution. Oh well. Enjoy your holiday weekend. Thanks, Stan

  11. In the army no slouching’s allowed

    Stand up straight, not stooped or bowed

    Got to pass that inspection

    Don’t want rejection

    Make it look as though you’re real proud!

    Helen

    • 🤷🏻‍♂️ No slouching in any armed force,

      It’s posture important, of course…

      No exception to rule,

      Or response can be cruel…

      When coming from that ranking source…🤷🏻‍♂️

      🗣️We see George didn’t have much of choice,

      Once he heard that authoritative voice…

      It was stand straight or else,Things could become complex…And there’d be nothing that he’d rejoice…🗣️

      🤷🏻‍♂️Far as pride goes…this early in morn,Most privates feeling kind of worn…So that moment amiss, Does it deserve the diss?…Leaving one feeling oh so forlorn?🤷🏻‍♂️
