A collage cartoon created in the 1980s by my late husband.

"LET'S HAVE A WAR!"

"If we kill Bugs, and a few people in the process, I promise you the economy will improve to my advantage!"

My dinner party ideal would have Steve Buscemi and Armin Shimerman there. They're both famous for being genuinely well-liked but with wicked senses of humor.

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

I thawed some dark-meat turkey and delicious homemade gravy from last Thanksgiving for tonight's supper.

That means that, tomorrow night, we will be having leftover leftovers.

And we will be happy.

(I'm glad I bought that chest freezer awhile back.)

If "Sinners" had been made 20 years ago, the Buddy Guy role could have gone to Hubert Sumlin. That would have been a real wang dang doodle. (No offense to the great Buddy Guy.)

(Hubert Sumlin in June 2004. Yes, that is Levon Helm behind him.)

I know, this decision will be appealed. But I think it's another sign that most courts have had enough, and can sense that the public finally can see when Trump is clearly overstepping his bounds.

It's always a bit weird when you (someone who rarely visits Reddit) note an interesting detail in a film that came out nine months ago, and it turns out that no one has mentioned it, so you do, and the "likes" start piling on.

A kitchen tip: If you save an empty 'Campbell's Chunky' can and an empty 'Campbell's Condensed' can, the latter will nest snugly over the former. I remove the labels and clean them up, then use the smaller can as a grease catcher. The larger can serves as the lid.

Usually, 24 hours after a snowfall, we can see plenty of critter prints.

Not this time, though. The ice layer on the top makes it still look untouched.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

Some here were irate that an early NYTimes headline merely noted that someone had been shot (no actor noted). Breaking news is like that, though; responsible press goes with only what can be confirmed by at least two independent sources.

The reporting changes as more becomes known. This is current:

On 1/30.26 theaters playing “Melania” will double as detention centers. ICE agents will escort detainees to local showings, then assist them in writing positive IMDB reviews.

Rest in peace, 'Uncle' Floyd Vivino, a true original as a musician and comedian.

My late husband and I enjoyed The Uncle Floyd Show. Some time after my husband's death in 1998, I found the Internet and learned that Floyd was still very active with public appearances. That in turn led me to ...(1/2)
