It’s a busy tired day here in the CatBox. I sproinged ahead and may recover this month. WWWendy will be here shortly. Have a great day!
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 3:45 (average 7:10). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Cartoons:
Short Takes:
From Daily Kos: Say what you want about him but the guy sure does know how to hire an advertising team!
I hated his candidacy, but surely like his desire to flush criminal Fuhrer Trump*. RESIST!!
From YouTube (SNL Channel): The Ingraham Angle Coronavirus Cold Open
Kate McKinnon is amazing. She does a more accurate Ingraham than the real bimbo on the Republican Reichsministry of Propaganda, Faux Noise! The real Don, Jr. probably has the hots for the real Ingraham. His taste is as bad as his father. As bad as Matthews, is, I don’t think he’ll ever descend to Faux Noise. Kudos to Liz for her wonderful sense of humor! RESIST!!
From YouTube (a blast from the past): Jumpin’ Jack Flash － The Rolling Stones
Ah… the memories! RESIST!!
Vote Blue!!

Cartoon: #1. Yep! Pretty much..
Cartoon #2. Happy Birthday!! Carrie! Hope that you have, and enjoy a great and fabulous Birthday! Hugs!
DK: Bloomberg hits hard, and I hope he keeps the commercials coming all the way through. He’s kicking as-, with his talented staff getting these out. Keep ’em coming, Mr. Bloomberg.
SNL: What a great clip. I so enjoy watching Kate, and yes, she’s very talented. It was wonderful seeing Ms. Warren on stage with Kate too! A treat for all of us. Great show last night….
BFTP: Yep, Mick was and still is … one of the best. Love the Stones.
Hi, Wendy, hope that you & family are doing good. Hope that you get all your chores done, Tom. Take good care, get your rest, Tom, and Thanks for all you do. (I don’t say it enough..).

3. “It’s too bad that Obama won’t be VP running mate. (it’s legal). That would send dt over the edge – his twitter thumbs would be so sore. lol.” ~ Brian B. ~
I too wish that Obama would. Then I’d love to see tRump’s face. It would blowup like a stick of dynamite being as red as it is.
8:40 Mr. Magenta, in the main frame, with photoshop.
TC, both you and I have said we believe Bernie’s (or Liz’s) policies would be better for African Americans than those of Joe. But here is what we weren’t seeing.

Cartoon -Oh, you mean the ones who can count to twenty. With help.
Bday cartoon – Carrie says her body starts telling her a few weeks before her birthday that it’s co-o-oming. Happy birthday and feel better, Carrie.
Bloomberg – I can like him much better now that he’s out of the race.
SNL – I don’t know about Chris Matthews. He might. Kate is always amazing, but Cecily is rapidly giving her a run for the money too. Yes, the real Liz does j\have a sense of humor. Yet she made me cry.
Past – No one could miss the Rollings Stones (most of whom are still alive – go figure.) But I don’t recall the cover.
Cartoon: Sure seems like what they’d use to count.
Cartoon: Happy Birthday Carrie. Hope you enjoy and with many more to follow.
DK: Glad to see that Bloomberg is being a good sport about not making it, At least he”s keeping his promise to fight against tRump.
SNL: Great acting by Kate. She plays her roles perfectly.
BFTP: Big fan of the Stones.
Hope you and Wendy gets your tasks done today, Tell her “Hi” too.
This is my first day at using my laptop. I have been laying low ever since the operation. It really took a tow on me. I go to see the Oncologist Tuesday afternoon.
Hope you’re doing well TC.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
Good to see you back on the laptop, Colleen, and good luck at the oncologist. I hope they have good news.
Thanks so very much. Appreciate it. Thanks Lona.
Colleen….
Do take good care, and good Luck for your Oncologist appt tomorrow.
Best to you.
Thanks so much Pat. Truly appreciate it.
Woooo Hoooo Colleen! 🧨
Welcome Home and keep getting better!
Sorry to be so late to welcome you back – none the less heart felt. Very glad to see you and good luck!
Some time during the production Sen. Warren & Kate McKinnon had a great time hamming it up in the dressing room:
Happy Birthday, Carrie B.!
thanks, SNL cold open and behind the scenes were fantastic……one more reason I am very sad she is out of the race….happy birthday to Carrie B….and to many many more
Enjoy your weekend and your drive with Sandy, TomCat.
3:27 Far easier than the 7:10 would suggest.
Cartoon: Those toes look rather pristine, i.e. not much used by a Bananrepublican.
Happy Birthday, Carrie. The cake is for you, not your dog(s).
DK: Let’s hope Joe keeps spending his millions on #DumpTrump
SNL: Great show, Kate did a terrific double there. The way they had Eric trying to imitate Don Jr. was hilarious. It put Dumb and Dumber to shame. Liz’s wonderful sense of humour is going to be missed and I’m sure Kate is going to miss doing impersonations of her. She did it so well.
BFTP: Lots of memories there even though I never was much of a Stone’s fan. I was a Beatles fan. Not many people were both in my peer group.
Those feet belong to a Republican Billionaire’s kept woman. That’s why they are well kept.
Thanks…Glad to be back. Missed you all.
Prayers are being sent your way too.
Thanks Tomcat.
Count? You think republicans can count? any claims they have about being for deficit reduction have been DIS-counted!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARRIE!!!!
DK: I’ve seen that, and love it. This may be like watching the super Bowl, just to see the commercials. Come on Bloomie!
SNL: Loved it!
BFTP: Have seen the Stones live, loved it.
Pat’s #3 is a shame; wouldn’t it be marvelous?
Joanne, you are amazing! That piece about Biden and Obama made my eyes go soft.
“Earth’s Beauty”: WAs Harry Potter hiding around the corner? That is amazing.
Coleen, here’s thinking abut you!
Appreciate it. Thanks Mitch.
Thanks, Hurry Hugs, and Amen to all!
