It’s another warm, super-muggy day. WWWendy sis a stellar job of destinking the TomCat yesterday evening. Unfortunately, The TomCat is already stinky again, and the next shower is Sunday. 
TGIF!
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 2:54 (average 4:12). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From YouTube (Late Show Channel): The Fake News Awards Were Worth The Wait
Colbert lied. Trump is bad at being Resident 100% of the time, not 90%. Kudos to all who won a Fake News Award from the Pumpkin Pervert. RESIST!!
From YouTube (Funny or Die Channel): White Noise Sleep Machine: How Racists Sleep At Night
Republicans can get their own Aryan 2 for only $19.99. RESIST!!
From Washington Post: An appointee of President Trump has resigned from the federal agency that runs AmeriCorps and other service programs after remarks he made disparaging blacks, Muslims, gays, women, veterans with PTSD and undocumented immigrants surfaced in the news media.
Carl Higbie lasted less than six months as the chief of external affairs in the Corporation for National and Community Service.
Higbie’s Thursday afternoon resignation, which was prompted after CNN unearthed the comments he made, comes amid increased scrutiny of the president’s appointees for racist or anti-Muslim statements made in the past.
Sadly, the Republican Party has a deep pool of bigots in which to find a replacement, who also hates blacks, Muslims, gays, women, vets with PTSD and undocumented immigrants. RESIST!!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Colbert: I feel Steve’s pain, as I was hoping that he’d win..but also to the other ‘Fake News’ outlets out there that never give up! Not even a mention, for crying out loud !
YT: UGH, sick !
WP: Such a hateful man. Just following the footsteps of others who have left, and resigned. Thank Gawd!! and Good Riddance!!!
Cartoon: Yeah, ain’t that the truth?
Hope that you have a restful evening, take care, and Thanks, Tom.
Another gub-mint shutdown, and the solid bodily waste ejecta are going to violently impinge upon the electrically-powered air circulation device–
4:14 That looks awfully cold at the top for a walkup.
Late show – I wouldn’t call someone who is mathematically challenged a liar just on that account. It has to be tough to keep up with a crazy man for a living.
FoD – Hey, the REAL thing works for non-racists too. And it is well described as “white noise,” since it is as ugly as racists. If mine fails, I substitute the static between AM radio stations, and it works just as well.
WaPo – I wonder what drove him to resign. Kudos to them whoever they are.
Cartoon – Yup.
as alan grayson once said about GOP-care…”die quickly”
Late Show: Wonderful!
Funny or die: Hey, we use white noise machines at my office…that way we can be in our individual offices and say things like “Trump sucks!’ without worrying that we’ll be overheard by the CFO who swears by Trump’s every word.
WaPo: The GOP has been racist for decades, anti-semitic for decades, anti-humanity, for decades, anti-….
Stephen Colbert: Don’t you love it that the Drumpfed-up Fake News Awards – towards which cheapskate Drumpf so characteristically didn’t fork out any awards – turned out to be nothing more than a link to a GOP site which gave you an 404 Error (Presidency not found). Colbert soon will have more to compete with than John Oliver; Drumpf now wants some recognition for hilarious comedy too.
FOD: What the heck was wrong with the Aryan 1?
WP: Excuse my sarcasm, but I don’t understand, and I’m sure Mr. Carl Higbie doesn’t either, why it’s quite acceptable for the President of America to make disparaging remarks about blacks, Muslims, gays, women, veterans with PTSD and undocumented immigrants and to be appointed by that President for being cut of the same cloth, but the appointed Higbie now having to leave a service agency. Isn’t that a tad hypocritical? Don’t answer, it’s a rhetorical question.
Cartoon: Not unless you pay for the dirt they don’t.
Don’t look further down until after you have digested your lunch, TomCat.
Thanks all. Pooped hugs!
Didn’t anyone click through to the Aryan2 site and click the Buy Now button? LMAO!!
No – but I have now. ROTFL!
