Today, Donald Trump gave a speech in which he spoke in clear, grammatical, complete sentences and presented sound, coherent arguments in favor of his thoroughly-researched, well-developed, and bilaterally-supported policies. April Fool!
Welcome to April.
There aren't many things that look sillier than a poor, hapless dog wearing an Elizabethan collar ... talk about adding insult to injury. This week's collection of cartoons looks at dogs suffering the indignity of wearing those ugly and embarrassing collars ...
Dogs are good at putting the best face on things ...
And they can also be pretty sarcastic ...
Reception is even better when their leash is being held by a woman with a head full of curlers ...
More looking on the bright side ...
And even more ...
I'll bet you didn't know just how far back the use of the Elizabethan Collar on pets can be traced ...
Oops ...
Well, someone had to be last in his class at veterinary school ...
Perhaps he's working under contract to NASA ... oh, wait ... not that Pluto ...
Elizabethan Collars as a device for managing social interactions. Who'd have thought it? ...
And there we have it - the first cartoon collection for the new month of April. Don't thank me ... you need something to take your mind off the sad circus that's sitting where our government used to be.
Have a good day, and come back tomorrow for music by Baccara. More thoughts then.

* It's a good thing that we have plenty of money to spend on infrastructure repair and improvement, rather than on silly things like, say, border walls.
He may be hearing from Pluto if Mickey Mouse is his neighbor!
ReplyDeleteA question: Why does Goofy wear clothes and walk bipedally, while Pluto is naked and walks on all fours?
Love "Sorry, forgot about the cone"! Another fine week. Thanks Bilbo.
ReplyDeleteeViL pOp TaRt - It's because Pluto is a pet, being Mickey Mouse"s dog. Goofy talks, wears clothes and walks upright because he's an anthropomorphic character.
You managed to fin great cartoons about dog cones. Well played!
