  1. Cartoon: Good grief! ugh! 
    TVU: Not much difference from yesterday. 
    RA: Sorry! Yeah, I feel your pain. 
    BFTP: Love Neil, his music is fantastic! 

    Sorry to read that you still have Republicosis, hope that you get well, and soon. Take good, good care, get your rest, best for tomorrow, and just take it easy. Nap and then some more. Thanks, Tom.

    • TJI #2 – Cute, Andy, but exaggerated. Democrats know that only Barack and Michelle have the law degrees to qualify. Sasha and Malia will just have to wait.
      TJI #4 – EXactly. And I push this hard whenever I get a chance.
      TJI #6 – Hear, hear !!!!

  2. Good luck tomorrow.
    ‘Toon: Yes, if Donny Boy gets another term.
    TVU: Midsection just blowing up, maybe taking some Trumplicans with it.
    RA: Sorry about that.  Not good for the Tampa Bay rays yesterday, either.  the game before saw the dodgers do a Bill Buckner number!
    Neil Young: Love his music.  This one is rather beautiful, but dark.

  3. ALL TJI: Remarkable!

  4. Well, we are on the second day of highs below 32°, and it’s looking like it will be next year before we see 70° again. Glad I’ve voted. I hope we get some precipitation where we need it the most (wildfires.) I haven’t even gotten any smoke here, but I do love my whole state, and it’s tragic what’s going down. I do have snow in the yard which I would happily give to the fires if it were possible.

    Cartoon – “For me but not for thee.”

    TVU – Yup – that one red spot is my Congressional District. (Doug Lamebrain doesn’t look to me as if he would las a week if he got infected – though of course, he’s rich (which people forget – he was the one named Congressman in on the most recent Senate insider trading scandal.) There is another red dot, too small to see, which includes Districts 1 and 7 – lots of people but very little space to social distance.

    Orb – I was afraid it was going that way.

    Blast – Sad. And equally pertinent today even without needles.

    • Sure hope you’re doing okay with the temps being so doggone low.
      Happy to hear that these tragic fires are no where near where you live. 
      I have and will continue to pray for the people in Colorado.
      You keep warm and take care, Joanne

      • Thanks, Colleen.  I’ll be fine (as long as I don’t fall.)  I have started wearing my sweaters, and I have a “space heater” on the floor under my desk in my computer room, which is a converted garage so doesn’t get an much heat as the rest of the house.  It goes on and off … if it stayed on I’d melt, even in these temps.

  5. That cartoon is probably a prediction of the near future with conserva-nazis in control of SCOTUS – three of them tRump appointees. Let us hope we get Biden in the Oval Office, and a Democrat majority in the Senate.

    A weird thought has occurred to me that, since reich-wingers rule the Supreme Court, even if the election goes clearly in Biden’s favor, and even if a lot of red Senate seats are flipped blue, tRump’s stooges might get SCOTUS to rule the election illegitimate. OK, maybe that’s just a paranoid fantasy, but never think something like that couldn’t – or wouldn’t – happen.

  6. Cartoon: I’m praying Nov. 3 will change that. 
    TVU: 358 new cases, up to 54,941.Deaths holds at 870. This week will determines if we are going to have to face shut down again.
    Religious Agony: Oh my, the Broncos didn’t do too well, maybe next week they’ll do better.
    BFTP: Big fan of Neil Young.  
    Good luck tomorrow. Hope your visit with your Oncologist goes very well. 
    Sorry to hear that you’re still suffering with Republicosis. Hope you get to feeling better. 
    Take care. Thanks TomCat

  7. Sorry to hear about your continuing Republicosis; looks like you’re allergic to the die or something, TomCat. I hope it doesn’t bother you tomorrow. I’m also hoping for a good outcome from the oncologist as hard as I can.

    2:43 Either the tipi or the English castle is fake.

    Cartoon: Only for those standing behind them.

    TVU: If it weren’t for the bright red and yellow, this map would look pretty bleak.

    BFTP: Love Neill’s music, can’t stand his voice. A problematic combination.

  8. Thanks and Hugs! 26
