It’s a painful groggy day here in the CatBox.  The way I feel, I may Republicating before I finish writing this.  Yesterday WWWendy’s shower exacerbated my back pain severely.  They finally increased my methadone dose from 12 to 15 mg, but I’ve had only two doses at that level, not enough make a difference so far.  Please pray that both my Republication and pain stabilize at acceptable levels.

  1. Cartoon: The R’s would love that! 
    BFTP: Good song. 
    I’m sad to read that. I sure hope that your pain lessens and that your med(s) stabilizes your pain. Hope that you have a restful day, and that you can nap. Take good care, and Thanks, Tom.

On January 13th, Kevin McCarthy said on the floor of the House that “the President bears responsibility and he does”. ~ Anon ~ 

    • TJI #1 – Oh. but they do – they worry that mass shootings will result in their guns being taken away. They just aren’t worried enough to to anthing about it except have tantrums.
      TJI #2 – Jeff still has a way with words.
      TJI #4 – But probably not if it doesn’t.
      TJI #5 – I seem to remember being taught growing up that it’s dangerous to lie because if you can’t keep your stories straight, you will get caught. But now they’ve learned you can change your story blatantly and still not get caught – at least not so’s you’d notice.

    • TJI#1: Heartless rotten R’s. Like to ignore and act like they’re blind when it comes to to gun violence.
      TJI#2: I’m all for just being able to see the two idiots taking the oath.
      TJI#3: I hope they get him soon and prosecute him to the fullest.
      TJI#4: Definitely get it passed. It’s an absolute MUST.
      TJI#5: Amazes me the way these bas*ards quickly change their stories. He and others will pay for their evil sins. 

  2. ‘Toon: Well, with no ‘lectricity the R’s would not have Faux News to spend their mental manure, for one thing.
    BFP: “Get out my life!” Words for AOC to proclaim to MTG!

  3. TJI#1: It’s hard to believe there is still a GOP, period.
    TJI#2: I would raise both hands, but then I could not type this.
    TJI#3: I do hope the ass is squirming, bigly!
    TJI#4: No doubt.  Now is the time to pass it!
    TJI#5: McCarthy and TOT can both go to hell.

  4. I was afraid the shower would be painful. I do pray that the methadone kicks in for you, and that you can Republicate and rest.

    If you are interested in getting instruction in exactly how elegantly itis possible to say “fuck you,” in 14 pages or less (and with charts and graphs), I recommend this model.

    Cartoon – Greed and stupidity are so often at war. Apparently it never occurred to them they would be ablt tp privatize it and steal more with it … until they did.

    Blast – My, there are a lot of covers of that. I think it was the Supremes version I was familiar with.

  5. Cartoon: Sick of these rotten R’s and their games.
    BFTP: Never heard this by the Box Tops. I too remember the Supremes singing it. Good song. 
    Too bad your shower caused you so much back pain. Hopefully the higher methadone dosage will start working faster to ease the pain.
    Extra prayers being sent your way, Tom.
    Hope you feel better soon. Take care. Thanks Tom
