Cartoon Saturday

The hits just keep on coming ...

Nine people were murdered in a Charleston, South Carolina, church by a man who shot them while they attended a bible study class; The earthquake that rocked Nepal in April of this year was so powerful that it moved Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, about three centimeters to the southeast*; in California, six people were killed and seven seriously injured when a fourth-floor apartment balcony collapsed during a birthday party; tropical storm Bill brought torrential rain and wind to the Texas Gulf Coast, proving that Governor Rick Perry is not the only source of high wind in the area; and in New England, two prison escapees - both extremely dangerous convicted murderers - remained on the loose two weeks after they broke out of the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, New York.

This week, in honor of the end of Season Five of the smash hit show Game of Thrones, our selection of theme cartoons features knights and dragons ...

Do you suppose there was an SPCD in Westeros? ...

Dragons recycle, too ...

And they worry about schedules ...

Dragon puns ...

High-tech dragons ...

I wonder if King Arthur worried about things like this ...

When warrior knights go shopping ...

Knights have to listen to their mothers, too ...

Okay, enough about knights and dragons and such ... we have room for two more cartoons this week. This one reminds me of Agnes and I ...

You can gain atomic weight by absorbing too many of the latter ...

And that's it for another edition of Cartoon Saturday. 

Come back tomorrow for Poetry Sunday. More thoughts then.

* The government of China noted the movement and claimed exclusive sovereignty over Mount Everest since it was now part of the Spratley Islands.
