Yes, I know it's Friday, but tomorrow we are going to be celebrating our family Thanksgiving, and I may not have the time to do the usual Cartoon Saturday post ... or any post, for that matter. Therefore I, Bilbo, Lord of This Tiny Corner of the Worldwide Web, Defender of Sanity, Head-Shaker at Congressional Buffoonery, Lover of Grandchildren and Small, Helpless Animals and Ardent Devourer of Corned Beef and Cabbage*, do hereby declare today to be Cartoon Saturday. Get over it.
In London, police arrested a couple who apparently kept three women in captivity for more than 30 years; at least 26 people were killed in Riga, Latvia, when a shopping mall's roof collapsed; Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has exercised the "nuclear option,"** changing Senate voting rules to help get past repeated Republican blocks of presidential appointees; in Kansas, a huge cargo aircraft landed at the wrong airfield and managed to take off again - on a runway half a mile shorter than it usually needed; and celebrity dumbass Chris Brown was kicked out of rehab for acting violently after he smashed the window of his mother's car during a family session.
This may be the right week to get a jump start on Cartoon Saturday. And since the world is going to the dogs, let's let our theme cartoons for this week feature man's best friend ...
In a high-tech world, even the dogs are technologically adept ...
If you're going to teach your dog to beg, you should do it right ...
That's what Nessa would have done ...
Going to see the Dog Whisperer ...
Perhaps our so-called political debates might be more entertaining and informative if we changed the rules a bit ...
Just checking messages ...
I wonder if he has the right kind of license ...
Moving on to other topics, did you ever wonder how producers find some of the strange people that show up on so-called "reality shows"? ...
Modern art ...
And finally, I think this is probably what's going through President Obama's mind this week ...
Have a good day. More thoughts coming.

** This would be news to the people killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

I feel the pain of the borderline collie! Maybe he's just a cayoodle in his family.
I like that form of modern art. And if dogs blogged, they would bark in print. Great cartoons!
Awesome cartoons!
