Gerbil Jumble #1

I like to do the Jumble, that scrambled word game. But it's no fun for me to do it the right way--unscrambling the words, then rearranging the circled letters to find the secret (bad) pun that goes with the little cartoon. So I do it wrong. I pretend the Jumble is a crossword. Usually the circled letters don't spell a damn thing, but the way I see it, the cartoon is just incidental.

We get the daily paper, so I get to plop a Gerbil Jumble in front of my wife every single day. Sometimes she says I've outdone myself. She said that about this one:
