Nov 202020
It’s a busy day here in the CatBox. WWWendy is expected momentarily. I got up earlier to practice for the coming event. I ate cold cereal this morning for the first time since I’ve had my stent. It worked. We have lots of work and planning to do today, but I should be in the saddle tomorrow. Thank God it’s Friday.

Now that criminal Fuhrer Trump* is heading for the drain, the amount of repair we need to do just to make a dent in the Republican destruction done boggles the mind. RESIST!!

‘Toon: WE need a new version of these trials. I said so just the other day, to someone, about the treasonous activities of the GOPIGGIES!
BFtF: Excellent!
BTW: Sen. Criminal Scott, of florida, has tested + for the virus that is not! Gov. Asskisser desalts, has been “absent” for about 2 weeks…hmmmm.
Covid #’s soar!!!!!!
TJI1: Nope he’s just going to continue making it uglier as the days go on till Nov 20. He’s inviting the Pennsylvania lawmakers next. What flipping part that he lost doesn’t this fool understand?
Sorry it was meant to go down below with Pat’s comment.
No worries, Colleen.
Cartoon: Twenty-four high-ranking Nazis go on trial in Nuremberg, Germany, for atrocities committed during WWII. *history
ST: God! How sad!! Should have been taken care years ago!
Flush. Can’t come soon enough!!
Hi, WWWendy! Hope that you got all your chores done, glad you had a good breakfast too! Get a nap in too. Have a good rest of your day, take good care, and Thanks, Tom.

TJI #1 – That is what it comes down to. Of course, people are hoping he’ll reach acceptance and make things smoother. Ain’t gonna happen.
TJI #2 – Oldie, but a goodie.
As always, I hope you get everything done to your satis faction without overly fatiguing yourself. The cold cereal is good news indeed!
Christine Goerke has been in touch with Wonkette, which also used the expression “It’s not over until the fat lady sings,” and instructed them that the expression is wrong. It should be “It’s not over until the THICC lady sings.” And she has proved her point with this gif (not made by Christine, but very cute. In the brief cutaway, Wotan is Sir Bryn Terfel.) NO SOUND – but special subtitles for Donald.
Cartoon – Nuremberg has been known since medieval times for its Christkindlesmarkt (Christmas ornament and toy fair). That December there must have been bleak. I certainly would not want to be holding Rico trials at Disneyland (or even in Anaheim or Orlando). But thank God for them and the precedents they set.
Blast – I was going to say “What does it say about our society” – but i know what is says – that some snowflakes think children should not see this. It means no one is teaching (too many) children about injustice and compassion.
I’m commenting to keep my mind off the continuous water-bombing by two helicopters which started at 10:00 am. The rekindled fire yesterday really got hold of the bushland beside my property, but fortunately for me at the other side of the waterhole and unfortunately for the fire brigades into the state park, i.e. impenetrable bush. The firies had to call it a day around 8 pm and just patrolled, so I got up every few hours or so to see if the red glow wasn’t moving towards me. The brigades and helicopters are now trying to contain the fire; there’s no chance of extinguishing it when you don’t have enough water and you can’t get to it; it has to burn itself out. Let’s hope it’ll do that soon and not relight again.
Back to you, TomCat. I’m glad to hear those little things – to us – like eating cold cereal give you pleasure. It certainly gave you speed (3:22). Enjoy!
Cartoon: Biden needs to appoint an AG who wouldn’t shy away from that. But he would need a majority vote in the Senate to make the appointment, wouldn’t he?
BFTF: Excellent song by Aisha Fukushima.
Thanks for letting us know what’s happening there, Lona.
Been praying ever since you first made us aware of the fires the other day.
I will continue to pray that You and Molly are kept safe and that the fires stay away from your property.
Thank you for your prayers, Colleen. I appreciate you doing that for me and Molly very much.
“he would need a majority vote in the Senate to make the appointment, wouldn’t he?”
Yes and no. To have the appointee confirmed, yes. But there are ways to get around that, such as the many acting appointments made by Trump*. There’s nothing wrong with acting appointments as long as they are started and ended according to the rules(which Trump* didn’t, but Joe would.) And therr ar e other suggestions being made as well. I won’t go into them all – some are a little far fetched. One, however, is showing – not telling – McConnell, “If you won’t confirm my appointees, I will make my acting appointees very far to the left. You may just want to give me my appointees.”
You are correct, JD. If the Senate refuses to confirm Biden’s nominee, Biden may make an interim appointment.
No day passes that I am not in prayer for all here.
ST: Shameful. Should of never happened. Comes down to the usual leaders not doing their jobs…the people suffer.
BFTP: Great tune.
Glad your breakfast went well. Hope you and Wendy had a good day and got everything accomplished.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
Thanks and CATurday Hugs to all! 🐱
So glad to know improvements are noted post-stent TC!
I’m glad it sounds like you may be eating a little better….
