Cartoon Saturday

And another yucky week swirls down the drain of history ...

The US Navy destroyer John S. McCain collided with a civilian tanker in the Pacific in the fourth naval mishap since February; in a freewheeling speech to a crowd of supporters in Phoenix, Donald Trump lashed out at critics and threatened to shut down the government if Congress does not provide funds for his border wall ... the one he said he'd make Mexico pay for; at least eight people are missing after a landslide in Switzerland, after 500 people were killed and more than 600 remain missing after a huge landslide in the African nation of Sierra Leone; and Hurricane Harvey landed on the Texas gulf coast as a Category 4 hurricane, although since downgraded to a Category 2 storm, it is expected to stall over the region and dump as much as 40 inches of rain on the already-devastated area.

My father used to say at the end of a bad day or week that if it had been a fish, he'd have thrown it back. It's been a bad week, so how about some cartoons featuring fish? ...

Good question ...

Stan's in trouble ...

The first step to solving the problem is to recognize that it exists ...

Most of us can relate to this one ...

Fish evolution 1 ...

Fish evolution 2 ...

 

Some fishermen's wives are very practical ...

A long-overdue appliance for the up-to-date fisherman ...

And we finish with a great pun ...

So ends another fishy week ... I hope I've helped you get over it.

We appear to be into a period of nice weather here in NoVa, so I'm looking forward to a nice weekend working in the yard ... #deathtocrabgrass. 

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow.
