Let's get started quick, before the House Republicans try to sue us ...
A Mexican police helicopter crossed into Arizona on Friday and fired two shots near US border agents in what Mexican authorities later claimed was a mistake; an outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in West Africa is said by the World Health Organization to be "out of control;" House Speaker John Boehner (R, OH) announced plans to sue President Obama, finally finding something that all Republicans could agree on; the Supreme Court struck down a Massachusetts law which established "no-protest" buffer zones around health clinics that perform abortions, deciding that the protection of protesters' free speech was more important than protecting clinic patients from vicious and hateful - and often violent - harassment; and in Brazil, the US national soccer team advanced to the next round of World Cup competition despite losing to Germany and earning the scorn of anti-soccer gadfly Ann Coulter.
Aren't you glad you can read the cartoons instead of taking Valium to escape the lunacy?
This week's selection of theme cartoons looks at the insect world ...
I wonder if their medical insurance covers eye exams ...
And corrective lenses if they're indicated ...
Standard questions at an insect interview ...
Sometimes they enjoy a little ... light ... reading ...
Even insect parents need to be mindful of what their children are watching on TV ...
I hear they don't allow these types of insects in the Bible Belt ...
Okay, so much for our look at the insect world ... now let's turn to other subjects, like this dreaded conversational opening ...
Have you been watching the World Cup games? Perhaps you have one of those stupid foam fan toys ...
Looks like you got the right number ...
And finally for this week, it's getting harder all the time to tell the difference ...
Congratulations! You have survived another week and can enjoy the weekend ... something I plan to do as soon as I get the lawn mowed, the garden weeded, the chores done, etc, etc.
Monday will come soon enough.
Have a good day and a great weekend. Come back tomorrow for Poetry Sunday.

Great bug cartoons, perhaps in anticipation of encountering garden pests. Don't stay out in the hot sun long: that's for mad dogs and Englishmen.
That's anger management support I can live with!
Leave it to Playbulb to have a lurid cover.
At least the soccer foam toys are silent unlike those vuvushubatuba thingies.
Those vuvuzelas are a blight on stadia.
I didn't know pollination could be a R-rated concept. :)
I enjoyed the buggy cartoons. As for Playbulb, would a fly or june bug say "Thanks for the Mammaries"?
