Iāve read about it before in this column and Iāve exchanged emails with David. Still, the missing apostrophe in the online puzzles prevails. Itās not a complete puzzle solution without the apostrophe. Thatās for sure

Today’s puzzle was very cryptic, and although I figured there would be some “I”‘s there, the solution didn’t make much sense to me. But that’s just me. Thanks for the Sinatra ballad…and I try to watch the movie on TCM whenever possible. Have a great Taco Tuesday, Angela. Terry

The “I’ “S”, as in, “all about me” and if you looki into a person’s eyes, you can see how conceited they are.

Easy Jumble today. I feel for the girl in the cartoon. Dating seems challenging in these times and sheās found a real loser with this one ! Thanks for the Frank Sinatra song choice Angela. Have a great Earth Day ! Thanks, Stan

I agree. It made no sense to me. So one really has to stretch their imagination to get there.

No problem with the anagrams and saw that the last 2 words of the cartoon solution were āhave itā but didnāt see the āIāsā solution right away. Chuck.

The surprise answer made no sense without the word āTheā in front of it , which was only provided today(Wednesday, April 23).
