Cartoon Saturday

The election is over, the economy is still tanking, unemployment is at 6 1/2 percent, there are still 73 days left in the current administration, and our new president-elect, while a good man, has little practical experience relevant to the magnitude of the tasks he faces.

Cartoon Saturday to the rescue!

In just a few hours, Agnes and I are heading to the airport to fly out to meet our 25th anniversary cruise. We've actually been married 26 years, but who's counting? We had to cut a few corners to afford the cruise...


Among the problems facing President-Elect Obama is the dismal state of our educational system. I'm glad some people are interested in fixing it...

This one's for all the help desk people who have pounded their heads on their desks when people asked them how to find the "Any" key...

Yes, I'm a government contractor. No, this isn't my company. But I know of some that fit the bill...

And although Agnes scoffs when I refer to her as my "trophy wife," at least I'm not literal about it...

As I warned you yesterday, we'll be away for the next two weeks. We may have intermittent internet access and, if so, I may post once or twice...but the real focus of this vacation is the maximum amount of relaxation and banishment of stress. Trips to the bar, the dance floor, and the dining rooms are about as much stress as I want.

And you won't forget me while I'm gone, will you?

Have a good day. More thoughts when we get back.
