  1. Good Morning, Everyone…🦴 OH TWEEZE…I NOSE I’D BE UPSET TOO 🦴

    🎶I’ve got A BONE TO PICK with you…for the way you always pick on me…🎶…”I’ve Got a Bone To Pick With You” – The Ink Spots  1941  https://tinyurl.com/mr2jwv2b

    🦴 Akin to a KARATE chop, the dog, Max bumped her hand,
    And like a BLIMP that loses air…it made her lose her stand…
    The young boy, acting COMMON, rejoiced in what Max did,
    (And here’s when the word AVIAN?…Destined to hit the skids)
    So sadly, for our young girl, this game her bailiwick…
    Had now come to a losing end…and she’s A BONE TO PICK…🦴

    Poor girl…there’s no way she could igGNAW how she was TREATED…

    So…Today, the board game, “OPERATION”… https://tinyurl.com/hd2zzvwe  …where the HOLE premise is players trying to TWEEZE out a win by removing pieces from “Cavity Sam”…TBT, I’ve never played, nor do I NOSE anything about it, so I’m going to try and DOCTOR this up the best I can…We’ve two young children, PAWleen and TOBY, and Max, the dog, (who appears to be Toby’s)….And who comically has a BONE in his mouth. And when he PLAYfully bumps into Pawleen’s hand with said BONE, CRAMPing her style, and throwing a WRENCH into the mix, she’s forced to PAWS, and HEARTbreakingly loses the game…prompting our lad TOBY happy over her misfortune…In fact, acting like a HEEL, he goes so far as to TREAT Max to a head rub and a call of “Good boy”…I suppose a bit of RIBbing is okay within child’s PLAY, but he could have SPAREd the over enjoyment…there was no KNEEd for him to gloat like that…PICKing on her…Perhaps he just wasn’t BREAD up all that well…Anyway, failing to PICK up her piece, which looks to be the Spare Rib, but seems a little out of place,…our Pawleen had…A BONE TO PICK https://tinyurl.com/2v5z3x4m  with Max…or Toby…or both…ANKLE anyone blame her? I think not…And as far as our solve goes? With the mention of “Operation” (=PICKing pieces), the leading nature of our question, the BONE in Max’s mouth, and Pawleen’s dialogue…this one was seCUREd before we even started…And I’m sure it SUTUREd you all just fine…

    Jeff’s💎Gems? Besides all the wit which I’ve already mentioned above, there’s the Broken Heart, the Wishbone, and the Butterfly pieces on the table, money by Pawleen and Toby, and Toby’s shirt sports the image of Monopoly’s “Free Parking” card…

    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 told us he was thinking of entering the medical field, maybe as a surgeon…He said he figured that since he was so good at solving puzzles, that he’d be great at putting pieces back together. “Ridiculous”, I told him. “It’s not even HUMEROUS…Especially with you being so MARROW minded”.. Plus, he’s lazy… I doubt he’s moved a muscle in over a year…and he thinks by telling us this that he’s worthy of ATROPHY of some sort? …Please, I could just see it now…knowing him, as high strung as he is, he’d be running around a hospital playing “Hide and Seek”…in the I C U…No, it’d never work out…he hardly has the PATIENTS to ever be a doctor…🦴🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🤷🏻‍♂️ The KARATE group had A BONE TO PICK with the organization…when an AVIAN theme was chosen for their BLIMP… feeling it had nothing to do with their COMMON message…🤷🏻‍♂️

    🤦🏻‍♂️ The AVIAN Society needed to rent a BLIMP,
    But right now for some reason their finances looked limp…
    They thought maybe join forces with the KARATE club,
    But there wasn’t a COMMON theme to fit within their hub
    They wonder where their money went…will do an audit quick…
    And hopefully when they are done there’s not A BONE TO PICK 🤦🏻‍♂️

  3. 👧🏻👦🏻A little game board for a child,
    But soon the momentum went wild…
    A tweezer and small parts,
    One a broken heart…
    After surgery the game was styled…👦🏻👧🏻

    👀 And it calls for precise eye control,
    Without which…there’s definitely death’s toll…
    Steady hands, too, a must,
    Or you’ll surely go bust,..
    The most pieces picked up the game’s goal…👀

    👍🏻 Through the years it’s remained quite a hit,
    With thousands of children to wit…
    And while changes were made,
    It’s still widely played…
    As it teaches a child true grit..👍🏻

    🐶 And today we have two kids at play, 
    With Pawleen and her tweezer at bay…
    Until Max, playful pup,
    Causes such interrupt…
    That she can’t help herself…but to say…🐶

    👧🏻“Doggone it…you’ve caused me to lose,
    And my ego’s now taken a bruise…
    That bone and its bump,
    Has caused me to slump…
    And it’s unfair Toby’s so amused”! 👧🏻

  5. Nothing food related again today…so I’m going with NATIONAL HOME FRONT HEROES DAY, in a bit of a twist paying homage to our new American-born Pope. A stretch maybe, but it just feels right…🇺🇸✝️🙋🏻‍♀️ https://tinyurl.com/2sbaj8jm

  6. not a very good end of the week Friday, Friday ! One anagram had me doing KARATE, which I didn’t get ! The rest were there ! But the jumble ! I looked up the game of Operation to see if I could see something , but I didn’t ! This didn’t come out to me ! I always enjoy your song Angela and your analysis of the jumble to really see the picture ! I just didn’t have it today ! But , I’ll be ready for Saturday and a nice weekend !!!!!

  7. I’ll join the club of those who didn’t solve today’s puzzle, even with words solved. Sorry to say, but nothing came to mind…and not seeing BONE was really tough on my ego !! And had to look up KARATE, too. Oh well !! Yes, Angela, thanks for the song….and paying homage to your new Pope. Have a great TGIF. Terry

  8. Easy Friday Jumble. I remember that board game from my childhood. I never was able to win, always touched the side while trying to remove the pieces and Lit Up The Nose ! Have a great day Angela. Thank you for your post, Stan

  9. Good morning. Took a little time to get avian and karate but I wouldn’t give up this time. The cartoon answer was pretty easy once I had the letters down. I took out the first and third word then the remaining letters gave me the answer. Enjoyed your song video which was the first time hearing the song but always enjoyed the Ink Spots When I had emptied the basement closet awhile back to downsize, there in the back was operation with a half dozen other board games. I’m not going to try and correct the spelling mistake because the whole thing disappeared twice. Until tomorrow take care.

    • Good Morning, Paul. Thank you, and I know what you mean. It’s been happening to me, and it’s so frustrating. Whatever change Word Press made has caused me nothing but grief…But on a lighter note…those long-lost board games…what a great find…Take care…and I’ll see if I can correct the typo…🦴🙋🏻‍♀️

  10. I joined the club in being stumped by the avian and karate anagrams,and then after looking those up,being stumped by the cartoon as well,despite having played the game of Operation,long ago.Definitely a difficult Jumble Friday. Chuck.

  11. When you’re involved in a delicate operation

    You must insist on cooperation

    Keep hands, feet or paws

    Out of the way because….

    This task requires concentration!

    Helen

    • 🤷🏻‍♀️ Concentration yes, definitely a key,
      But the fault hardly falls on our she…
      She was doing so well,
      Until things went to hell…
      Albeit all accidentally…🤷🏻‍♀️

      🐶 Most likely the rules were in place,
      As Pawleen worked  so close to that face…
      But as far as Max felt, 
      The lass his heart did melt…
      So he interloped into her space…🐶 

      🤦🏻‍♀️ Yes, the damage… caused due to that limb,
      And yes, it was hailed good by him…
      …By him, Toby of course,
      Who enjoyed Pawleen’s loss…
      When bumped so close to old Sam’s chin!🤦🏻‍♀️
