  1. Cartoon: Absolutely 100% Correct!  
    BFTP: Loved this song. I miss him.

    2. “Fire actress Gina Carano for her unabashed/anti-Semitism, transphobia, open support of sedition and insurrection and covid-19” (Mandalorian/Disney/LucasFilm) ~ Ian W. ~ 
    3. “R’s insist on Special Select Committee with 4 Benghazi deaths and attacks, separate from other committee investigations – $7 million spent on 33 hearings. US Capitol – Radicalized mob attacks US government building, 5 Americans died, dozens injured. Republicans want to ‘just move on’!” ~  V.A.T. ~ (vets against trump) 
    4. “Josh Hawley is caught not paying attention to the trials…sitting with his legs up on the seat in front of him, reading unrelated materials. If this behavior gets you kicked of of Biology class in middle school, why doesn’t he get kicked out of the Senate?” ~ Anon ~ 
    5. “I do hope sometime in his term, President Biden awards Officer Goodman the Presidential Medal of Freedom, he very likely single-handedly saved the Country and lives (in that moment). If Rush qualifies for this, then…this should be a no-brainer.” ~ Seth R. ~ 
    6. “We all owe Barr a debt of gratitude for taking such actions, because if he hadn’t protected Guiliani, the world would never have learned or had the delights of ‘Four Season’s Total Landscaping’. The true symbolic end of dt’s presidency and the ubiquitous reference that will be used for years and years. ~ Ian C. ~ 

  2. I could mot go because of the weather.  I may have an impacted bowel.  An ambulance is coming.  Will update when I can.

    • Oh, no!!!
      Hope that you feel better very soon!
      Yes, please keep us posted. 

    • “Oh shit!” seems the most appropriate reaction.  So sorry.  Keep us posted (as I am confident you will.)

    • Sorry to hear that you’re not doing well. 
      I’ll be praying that it’s nothing serious.
      Please definitely keep up posted.

    • Well, that’s not the news we want to hear.  And I hope it’s easily and quickly resolved!

    • Missing your infusion because of the weather but ending up in hospital nevertheless with a possibly impacted bowel; if your health wasn’t so bad, I’d say there’s never a dull moment with you, TomCat.

      I hope you got to hospital in time and that this problem is resolved by now, but it will have added to your pain and you’re sure to stay in hospital a few days. You’ve overcome everything else, and you will do this too.

      You’re in my thoughts, dear friend.

  3. Phooey!  Hoping you feel a lot better.  
    ‘Toon: And to foster Democracy!
    BFP: Pam knew him before he took on his stage name.  Love his stuff.

    • Remember the Doonesbury cartoons featuring him (offstage) and Duke?  I remember Duke saying (yelling might be more accurate) “Why don’t you change your name to Akron and move to Ohio?”

  4. We’re having snow too  But we’re more or less used to it, and Portland isn’t.  It is indeed frustrating when it interferes with a long-standing appointment when there’ no reason to expect that weather may intervene.

    Chase Iron Eyes writes that President Biden is meeting with South Dakota tribal leaders today to discuss the Dakota Pipeline. This is very promising and let’s hope the promise of it is kept.

    Cartoon – Well, except for sinecure jobs for themselves (and families.)

    Blast – a fine song, as all of his were.  Did you know he recorded a duet with Placido Domingo”  One that holds a special place in my heart was “The Wings That Fly Us Home.”

    Happy New Year of the Ox.

  5. Cartoon: Yep, that’s the ugly truth of the rotten R’s.
    BFTP: Great song. Always liked listening to his songs. 

  6. I never got into that series much, at all.  But, your story is funny.

  7. 3:25 Be my Valentine.

    Cartoon: The cartoon with what they’ve done to destroy them would have a black background.

    BFTP: Bought John Denver’s first three major albums Rocky Mountain High, Farewell Andromeda, and Back Home Again in reverse order; I was that big a fan but drifted away into other music. Meanwhile, my father picked up on him, “borrowed” the albums and became his biggest fan. We played “Take me home, country roads” for him at his cremation at his request.
     

  8. Just got home. exhausted. Will probably sleep late.

  9. so sad to hear about your health issues…..peace and comfort….
