My favorite cartoon

I saw this strip here and nearly fell out of my chair. It's funny because it's been my constant refrain for more than a year.

I love letters to the editor

Especially this one from the Los Angeles Times. Re where Davis receives political contributions: What difference does it make where a prostitute conducts business; the intent is the same anywhere. Ed Pollack Apple Valley That one's funny. This one is simply too true -- and representative of how a great number of Californians feel. So, […]

Another reason not to like Canadians

A group of Brits had a yearlong Internet survey asking people to submit funny jokes and rank them. They also asked people their country of origin and various other statistically important things. The survey's over now, so you can't participate. But the results are in. The #1 joke in Canada just goes to show you […]

I like this one: Inexplicably Single Men vs. the Stuck-up Women Who Think They're too Good. A class-action suit against the female […]

Blog news

I'll catch up on posting tonight, but here's a short and funny note mentioned in a book I'm reading that I thought some of you might like. You can be honest; you can be intelligent; or you can be liberal. Or any two of those, but not all three. When I read that I laughed […]

"I love all of you men, but you women even more. I appreciate every one of you, especially the ladies. You are good-looking, God bless you." -- Sen. Strom Thurmond, on his 99th birthday after being lauded by Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle. Priceless.
