Cartoon Saturday


Boy, am I glad this month is almost over ...

Former Chancellor Rishi Sunak was sworn in as Britain's third Prime Minister in seven weeks; Elon Musk finally consummated his purchase of Twitter and celebrated by firing most of the senior staff; the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was attacked and severely beaten during a break-in at the couple's San Francisco home; monuments in four Polish cities commemorating the Soviet army's liberation of Poland after World War Two have been demolished in accordance with a law prohibiting the promotion of totalitarianism; and police in Pakistan have arrested six donkeys for aiding in the theft of timber by Pakistani criminal gangs.

Today is the last Saturday of October, and our final Cartoon Saturday salute to Halloween for 2022. For this last collection, let's look at witches for a spell*, eh? ...

It's hard for a young witch to find a starter house nowadays ...


Grant money is tight, for sure ...


Socially responsible potion-making ...


When casting spells, the right wand is important ...


She also wanted to know if the Girl Scout Cookies were made with real Girl Scouts ...


Everybody's gotta start someplace ...


Slightly guilty ...


The problems of being a gingerbread homeowner ...


Delivering an appropriate and accurate eulogy ...


Given the skyrocketing price of appliances nowadays, you've got to be sure your purchase has the right features ...


And that wraps up the final Cartoon salute to Halloween for this year ... I hope all you witches, warlocks, zombies, ghosts, vampires, mummies, and other creatures of the night enjoyed it.

Have a good day and a great weekend, and come back tomorrow for Poetry Sunday, when we feature my all-time favorite eerie Halloween poem. More thoughts then.

I've got some of those hex wrenches. I'll have to try them out.

Ha Ha, "How many kids are in that kid's meal?" I might try asking that if I shopped at one of those places.
