It’s a muggy day here at the CatBox, and I’ll have to button up soon.I’ve has many tasks to complete, so I’m in a rush. It’s a holy day in the Church of the Ellipsoid Orb. My Broncos are visiting the Arizona Cardinals, and it is televised on Thursday Night Football. You know what I’ll be doing.

Damn! Amen times infinity!! RESIST!! VOTE BLUE!!
From Salon.com: Beto O’Rourke dominates Ted Cruz in Texas Senate debate
Click through for the article. I knew he would. RESIST!! VOTE BLUE!!
From The New Yorker: The Russian President, Vladimir Putin, is “absolutely furious” at the Saudi royal family for using his puppet without first obtaining his permission, an aide to Putin confirmed on Wednesday.
According to the aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity, the Russian President has been “seething with anger” in recent days as he has observed the Saudis using his favorite puppet as if it were their own.
“At one point, Putin was watching the news and saw his puppet behaving in the kind of scraping, subservient manner toward the Saudis that he had previously reserved for him,” the aide said. “He pulled the TV out of the wall and hurled it across the room.”
According to diplomatic sources, the Saudis have reached out to Russia in the hopes of striking some sort of puppet-sharing agreement, but the enraged Russian President has refused to entertain such overtures.
Well, Andy, one can hardly blame Putin [R-RU]. To the best of my knowledge, MBS has not contributed even one urine saturated hooker to maintain Putin’s piddle puppet. RESIST!! VOTE BLUE!!

HEY DUDE! – Parody: Lovely voice and so mellow. Have a nice repose for a 3 minute song.
I am glad that Beto O’Rourke dominated Ted Cruz in Texas Senate debate. YES! And I would love to see that smirk disappear off of Cruz’s face forever. HA!
NewYorker: Piddle Puppet Master is a bit peeved, is he not. lol.
Cartoon: Wasn’t all that difficult, was it…? sigh…

Thought you might want to have a short read and listen. It is a Beto ad.
..
Love it!
5:20 You really have to look to see any blue in the bird against that bright blue water.
This has been out for a while, but between Cornerstore Caroline and Apartment Annie and Gas Station Brenda [sic] and Golf Cart Gail (and the week isn’t over), I thought this might be a good time to share.
The other PP – Alas, I can’t get much older either. But my ballot comes today, and I’ll be ON IT.
Salon – Too many things COULD be said – I’m not jumping in.
TNY – I would have thought that anything which could make Putin angry would be something I would be for. I’m going to have to rethink that!
Cartoon – And proceeded to start bleeding the life out of it. Grrrrr.
PPC: Wonderful, so well done, and love the words !
Salon: Beto (all gloves are off.)..He’s the clear winner! Go, Beto, GO!!!!
NYer: LOL. This is probably how it is now. Two cruel dictators fighting over dt. How insane is that?
Cartoon: So sad. Even today, with not receiving any assistance for our friends and neighbors, truly horrible.
Best to your guys for the WIN !!! Still raining/drizzling, and cold for me here. Enjoy your evening, take good care, and Thanks, Tom.
This just in: “What the Arab world needs most is Free Enterprise.” ~ Jamal Khashoggi ~
PPC: Wonderful!
Salon: I do not watch these things, they are not good for my oh so fragile constitution, and I am out of barf bags! It is no surprise to her that Beto beat Cruz in a debate, as Cruz has little if any mind. I clicked through, and was targeted by more ads than I’ve seen in a year, all done.
New Yorker: Well, what can one expect, that Putin’s mommy taught him how to share? Fat chance!
‘Toon: Sadly, first the Spanish and then us.
TNY: Would that we could drive a wedge between the Russians and the Saudis. Or maybe there already is one–
Joanne, thanks for the parody ad – that is a panic and a half!
PPC: Love the tune. Perfectly worded to fix exactly the way we full about tRump and his cronies.
Salon: Wonderful news about Beto O’Rourke leading, I pray that he wins. I can’t stand crude cRuz.
NY: Boy pUtin’s upset Poor baby. wonder what he will do about it?
Cartoon: Agree with Pat that it’s still sad that still haven’t had any real help.
Joanne, Like the ad.
Enjoy the game. Hope your Broncos do well and win this evening.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
PP: Excellent, one of the best yet! Great way to get the young to get themselves to the ballot boxes.
Salon: Still keeping my fingers, toes and legs crossed for Beto. It’s a long shot for Texas, but Beto does have a chance.
TNY: Way to go, Andy. Absolutely scathing satire, the only type fitting for Drumpf and comrades.
Cartoon: And Puerto Rico never got over the devastation.
Puzzle — 4:32 Does this painting make you drool for the bird you cannot have Puddy Tat?
Parody Project — Outstanding!!! “Amen times infinity!!” . . . and then some!
Salon — I watched the entire debate, although my computer kept freezing and shutting down when Cruz was speaking! There were 2 things that came to mind as I watched: 1) Cruz is such a slimy POS; and 2) I swear I could see his nose grow longer with every passing second! Beto did a great job and hisz confidence was certainly on full display. Like the audience, I had to laugh when Cruz struggled to articulate one time when he had helped people outside of his role in government.
The New Yorker — “Well, Andy, one can hardly blame Putin [R-RU]. To the best of my knowledge, MBS has not contributed even one urine saturated hooker to maintain Putin’s piddle puppet.” — AMEN!!! LMAO!!! I could not have said it better!
Cartoon — Puerto Rico was never the same afterwards! And things are only getting worse!
Have to go! I’m having a major haircut this morning and running late as I had two blood sugar lows (3.1 on our scale — 55.8 on your scale I think). Later!!!
I’ll just become a painted puddy before I eat my bird.
Thanks all. Worn out hugs!
