It’s a busy day here in the CatBox. WWWendy is doing chores, and I an de-stunk. Please pardon my pit stop. Tuesday is Flush Your Republicans day.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
today’s took me 3:47 (average 6:07). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Cartoon:
From an actual Republican pseudo-Christmas card
Short Takes:
From YouTube (Parody Project Channel): THE ORANGE DEMON WENT TO GEORGIA – a parody
Beautifully done, Don, but do you honestly think you’re being fair? After all, although demons certainly are evil, in that regard they can’t hold a candle to criminal Fuhrer Trump*! RESIST!!
From YouTube (a blast of Christmas): Do You Hear What I Hear?
This is another I used to perform in a choral group. I here the sound of the Republican Reich fading. Do you hear what I hear? Hugs!!
42 Days (6 Weeks) Until the Big FLUSH!!

Hi, WWWendy! Glad that your chores are being done. After…get some rest, and relax. Take good, good care, and Thanks, Tom.

TJI #5 Many people, including some mental health professionals, have predicted that his five stages would not be the usual ones, but rather 1. Denial 2. Anger 3. Bargaining 4. Denial 5. Anger. Sounds about right to me.
TJI #6 Hear, hear! Stacey (as always) speaks truth!
TJI #3 is so spot-on …
TJI#5: The five stages of reacting to a person’s own death. But, for Dumpy, not a person, but an empty shell with delusional aspects, his public spanking is just bringing on denial, anger, bargaining, name calling, grifting, grifting, grifting, no possibility, as said above of acceptance, anger…oh, did I say grifting?
Borowitz and Colbert are spot-on.
TJ#5: Yes those may be the stages, but come on tRumpy…does someone have to physically knock it into your head? You’ve lost and it’s over and done with, we’re sick of listening to your broken record (mouth).
TJ#6: Wise words. Agree with Stacey 100%.
I’m running late myself. (Yawn)
Just in case you didn’t realize Colorado Springs is weird, our local classical radio station is featuring a three-parts-over-three-nights program on Hannukah. It will be underwritten (sponsored) by All-Okinawa Karate. (they will actualyl end up going eight nights, but these first three will be repeated on nights 5, 6, and 7, with a couple of other programs on nights 4 and 8) December 10, 11, and 12 (or 14, 15, and 16) at 7 pm Mountain (9 Eastern, 8 central, 6 pacific.0 Listen on line here.
Other PP (with good Don) – Don watches Keith !!! Or, maybe just great minds falling in the same ditch. This took a while to make.
Blast – I am old enough to remember, not the original release in 1962 (I’m old enough for that but I missed it, I suspect partly because there was so little time to pre-promote it) but the 1963 version with Bing Crosby being released. Despite its previous success, it was brand new to a lot of us then but it certainly took off. Now, the optimism of the mighty king getting on the bandwagon with the poor feels quaint.
Nothing says CHRISTMAS like the gift of a gun!

I can remember our family religiously watching the Andy Williams TV show. Things were SO much simpler back then …
‘Toon: too true!
PPC: Trump’s not a demon, he’s the Anti-Christ!
BOC: Beautiful music.
OK. This is for real. The author is not a staff member, but has provided substantial source material, and knowledgeable commenters can (and have) back the information up (and add to it.)
Cartoon: Like they don’t have enough already???
PPC: Good one Don.
BoC: Beautiful song by Andy Williams. Brings sweet memories of when I was younger watching him on tv with my family.
Happy to hear the you and Wendy kept busy and got your chores taken care of. Hope that the rest of you day was a pleasant one.
Take care. Thanks TomCat
3:47 Me too.
Cartoon: They’ll get some extra armature in their stockings in case Biden is inaugurated despite their warnings.
PP: Don is on a roll again, this is just the latest one in a burst of parodies.
BOXmas: I’m getting into unknown territory here.
It was actually written as a response to the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Thanks, and Hump Day Hugs to all!
