It’s a busy day here in the CatBox. Store to Door will deliver a big grocery order later, and this evening, WWWendy will be here. I’ll be in the saddle tomorrow after all. My prison-volunteer friends and I rescheduled our working Lunch until Monday, 7/1. Happy Hump Day to all.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 2:57 (average 4:45). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From YouTube (Parody Project Channel): WHEN JOHNNY COMES ROLLING HOME
Amen Don! The Republican Reich gave us Afghanistan and Iraq. That’s two wars too many! RESIST!!
From YouTube (MSNBC Channel): President Donald Trump Officially Launches His 2020 Re-Election Campaign
Barf Bag Alert!!
The following is a complete list of all the good things Trump said: [end of list]. RESIST!!
From The New Yorker: In a state of panic after their father dispatched troops to the Middle East, Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr., have both sought medical notes from a Manhattan podiatrist.
According to an official statement from Donald Trump, Jr.,’s spokesperson, John Barron, Jr., the two Trump boys obtained the medical notes “out of an abundance of caution.”
The podiatrist’s notes, which were made public by Barron, paint a picture of two otherwise healthy young men with foot problems that can only be described as dire.
Dang, Andy! Imaginary bone spurs are hereditary! Imagine that! RESIST!!
Cartoon:
This is what triggered the Republican Party to become the Republican Reich.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
4:33 I’m not breaking the average often either. Looks like TC will have free hunting privileges for a whole. Not that this one is huntable or edible.
Be sure to tell your friends, who helped so much to keep us in the loop that time you couldn’t, hello and thanks again.
I so wish I could take about 10°F off your hands 24/7 for the next several months. That would bring our temps up to summer – not aggressive summer, at least not for the next ten days and who knows how long after that, but summer. And it might not quite bring yours down to normal, but it would be a noticeable improvement. Unfortunately, we don’t have the technology for that.
Other PP – I wish I could believe that “we” will “all wake up,” no matter what happens. The current regime’s position is “He knew what he signed up for.”
MSNBC – Raw Story enumerated 7 bizarre incidents (Brian got one or two) from the rally. Your list is just as accurate and shorter. I’ll spare everyone my take on Shanahan “spending more time with his family.” Does anyone need to know more about Republicans is that they are still chanting “Lock her up” out of one side of their mouths whole claiming “The Mueller investigation is out and we must move on” out of the other?
TNY – Many imaginary conditions are hereditary. Sadly.
Cartoon – Yup. In other words, pure evil.
PP: Boy, I got choked up with this one. Words so, so, so true! Very well done, guys!
MSNBC: I like Brian’s intro, too many long days left, imho. He’s so full of sheet, I can’t stand him lying, and spewing his hatred. Evil. Glad Shanahan made the decision not to be part of dt’s team. Who in their right mind hits their mother with a baseball bat??? His son. Geesh! Trump rally: SOS, seriously.
NYer: Now this is funny! Like father like sons! lol
Cartoon: Good day for us, bad for repugs.
Hi, Wendy! Still feeling kinda icky, so I’m staying horizontal as much as I can. Hope that you have a good rest of your day/evening, take good care, and Thanks, Tom.

To get all “wonky” WRT Twitler’s campaign launch last night, here are a couple of Fact Checking sites:

BUT to have a little more fun and get a flavor of just how untethered from reality he actually is, here’s an analysis of the 34 wildest lines from his rambling stream of consciousness blather:

The man is Guano Cray Cray!
Happy Juneteenth!
To you too. I realized after posting I had missed it. Will apologize tomorrow.
In truth, I had never heard of it before this morning. Happy belated Juneteenth.
PP: Really sad that we have a gun/war loving leader. Continues sending more over there.
BBA: All the good things tRump has done?….what a joke. He’s done nothing except create all sorts of chaos. Conflicts with countries we use to be friends with.
TNY: Two more cowards who follow in their fathers footsteps.
Hope you have a good visit with Wendy.
Thanks and tired hugs to all.
