It’s a very busy day here at the CatBox.  WWWendy is coming early, and we have lots to do.  I’ll be back in the saddle tomorrow, barring unforeseen circumstances.  Oh God, it’s Monday!

Jig Zone Puzzle:

Today’s took me 2:58 (average 4:53).  To do it, click here.  How did you do?

Damn Orb blew it again!  However, I trust it will do better for my new team, the Portland Chiefs.  Oregon deserves them.  They are too good for the state that elected Sen. Josh Hawley!

Short Take:

From YouTube (a blast from the past): The Mamas & The Papas – Monday Monday

 

Oh God it’s Monday Monday! Ah… the memories!  RESIST!!

  1. RA: You too, eh? My guys didn’t do well either, Titans 41, Texans 38. It was painful to watch. 
    Loved the Mama’s and Papa’s when they started out. What a great song to start my day, Monday. lol 

    Hi! WWWendy! Hope that you get everything done.. and chores completed. I’m awful for doing chores, but someone has to do it. Have a good day, and get your rest too, Tom.

    • TJI #1 – The problem was when we let them back in.
      TJI #2 – If we win Georgia (TOMORROW !!), we won’t need that
      TJI #3 – Sounds so easy, doesn’t it?
      TJI #5 – The Squad did exactly what they did four years ago – voted for the most progressive person running for the office. And I wish people would get off of her back. All their backs.

    • TJI#1: Sure sounds familiar doesn’t it? Wonder if that’s where these current idiots are getting their senseless ideas??? Lock them all up now.
      TJI#2: Yes it would be great. I also hoping that the Democrats win in Georgia tomorrow.
      TJI#3: Hopefully with all if the ill actions of the rotten R’s, it will destroy the rotten R party.

    • TJI#2: I’d rather win GA, but this is also a great idea.

      THI#3: If I didn’t see the reference, I’d think you were quoting ms!

      TJI#5:  We need so support Nancy with the caveat that we also need to hold her feet to the fire on many progressive issues.

  2. Personally, I really did not want to get up. Nothing in particular – possibly existential dread.

    (In case you missed yesterday’s video thread) Corruption in the Trump regime is nothing new. Hard, solid evidence of that is a bit harder to come by. Yet here we are.

    Orb – Damn – good but not good enough. Rats.

    Cartoon – And that’s why the Stamp Stampede is working so hard.

    Blast – Mondays and Fridays are much alike to me now – even before the pandemic. If anything, Fridays are a bit tougher. But that doesn’t prevent my liking this song.

  3. Very short on time today, I hope I can come back later in the day to comment and train my left puzzle-hand.

  4. Sorry to hear that yours and Pat’s teams didn’t do well yesterday. I’m looking forward to when the Baseball season starts up. They start the practice games some time in March which are fun to watch.
    BFTP: Great tune by the Mama’s and Papa’s. Fits well even today.
    Hope you and Wendy had a good visit today and got everything taken care.
    Have a restful day. Take care. Thanks TomCat

  5. Sadly, we potentially remain ONE election away from ending this wonderful experiment in democracy.

    The GOP as currently configured is made of FOOKING Crazies!

  6. ‘Toon: Citizens United needs to be crashed, totally.
    The Mamas and the Papas rock!
    Sorry I’m here late, but was spending time yesterday trying to register for the Moderna vaccine; got close, but no cigar.

    • I hope you can get it.  For now, I don’t want one.  I prefer the doses to save the like of someone whose life can be saved. 09

  7. Thanks and ðŸš½ Republican ðŸ’©ðŸ’© Hugs to all!
