If you hoped that 2020 would be better than 2019, your hopes are not off to a very promising start ...
In a relatively measured act of revenge for the US assassination of IRGC commander Qasem Soleimani, Iran launched a barrage of guided missiles against two American facilities in Iraq, causing damage but no American casualties - apparently by design; a magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck the island of Puerto Rico, which has still not yet recovered from the damage caused by Hurricane Maria in 2017; Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, revealed they intend "to step back as 'senior' members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent" - an announcement that apparently blindsided Queen Elizabeth and the rest of the royal family; intelligence briefings provided after the fact to members of Congress to justify the assassination of Qasem Soleimane were angrily denounced as simplistic and ineffective - even by staunch Republicans; and in Washington, Der Furor announced a massive rollback of environmental regulations he denounced as "dysfunctional."
There's a lot of controversy lately about wealth inequality in the country ... it's not going away (in fact, under Der Furor it's gotten worse), so we might as well run some cartoons about it ...
How the 1% fights fires ...
One has to wonder what Jesus would have made of the so-called "prosperity Gospel" ...
If you're rich enough, you can buy your way out of just about anything ...
Do you suppose this is how Eric Trump built his model railroads? ...
If you're rich, you don't eat lunch at a taco truck ... you go to a taco limo ...
Bedtime prayers of the wealthy ...
"Run-for-office rich" ... a good way to describe those who serve in a Congress full of millionaires ...
We can only hope ...
You know you're rich when you can hire someone to do your playing for you ...
The sort of discussion that probably occurs in the Congressional GOP lounge ...
That's it for another week. If you can, hunker down for the weekend with a few cases of adult beverages and prepare for what's coming.
Have a good day and a great weekend and come back tomorrow, when we'll make a call to The King. More thoughts then.

Sadly, none of these were very funny; accurate maybe, but not funny.

I was going to comment what John said.
The little kid with the train made me laugh. Delightfully absurd!
I can count on you to find the best cartoons!
I like priority boarding for those characters!
Write down a list of all the reasons why you have chosen homeschooling for your kids. Start off with a list of the pros and cons of public schools in your area. Next, write down how you're going to overcome those cons and include the pros in your own classroom. Subsequently, create milestones and goals you want your kids to reach as you teach them. Create a timeline for those goals so you can be sure they're attained.

Do not forget to stretch before and after you receive a massage. A massage will be more efficient if your muscles are already warm and you will have more energy after your massage if you take a few minutes to stretch your muscles. Besides, stretching is an efficient way to relieve muscle pain.
