Another great week, eh?.
Der Furor scored yet another charm on his indictment bracelet when several new counts were added to the indictment on mishandling of classified information; Congress adjourned for its summer recess without action on funding the government, making a government shutdown likely in the fall; two behavioral science researchers admitted that the data they presented in a study on honesty was fabricated; controversial singer Sinead O'Connor died at the age of 56; and in Lincoln County, Montana, two men settled an argument over priority at a boat landing by the traditional American method of murder-suicide.
This week, let's put together a collection of cartoons about the most widely-admired Swedish export since the fabled Bikini Team ... Ikea.
Only Lego blocks would be worse ...
Where the UFOs are really from ...
Not quite a self-made man ...
If you've tried to decipher some Ikea instructions, you know how accurate this is ...
Follow instructions carefully ...
All the king's horses and men and a set of Ikea instructions ...
The job test ...
Traditional Swedish workmanship ...
But will his insurance cover that wrench? ...
Ikea chemistry ...
And we come to the end of another month of Cartoon Saturdays - a month when we surely needed the fun. I hope you enjoyed my little attempt to lighten up the otherwise dreary news drumbeat.
Have a good day and a great weekend. Come back tomorrow for Poetry Sunday ... if you wake up in time. More thoughts then.

The original put together furniture was by Sauder. I still have a few pieces. And I still haven't been to IKEA even though we have one now
