Cartoon Saturday

This month just petulantly refuses to get any better ... 

Former First Lady Rosalyn Carter passed away at age 96; two people were killed and a Border Patrol agent wounded when a car crashed and exploded on the Rainbow Bridge crossing between the U.S. and Canada; 24 hostages being held by Hamas in Gaza - thirteen Israelis, ten Thai, and one Filipina, all women and children - were released on Friday in exchange for Palestinians held in Israeli jails; in South Korea, a 23-year-old true-crime fan has been sentenced to life in prison after murdering a random person "out of curiosity;" and a Catholic health-care system operating hospitals in Illinois and Wisconsin has announced it is removing crucifixes from its facilities to prevent them from being used by angry patients and visitors to attack staff members ... gives new meaning to the term "being cross," doesn't it? 

A wall will keep out some aliens, but for others you need a roof. A really good roof ... 

Alien barbers have their own style ...

The admission, ET-style ...

I think I'd prefer to be abducted by these ones ...

The aliens aren't always as advanced as we thought ...

I'm not sure the insurance company will buy it, either ...

This will be a more frequent reaction as next November approaches ...

Sometimes, we humans make it too easy ...

The aliens visit ancient Rome ...

Uh, oh ... wrong approach to first contact ...

An even more wrong approach to first contact ...

And that's it for our last Cartoon Saturday for November ... I hope you enjoyed it.

Have a good day and enjoy the first weekend of the traditional holiday season. See you tomorrow for Musical Sunday, featuring a timely tune from Grace Jones. More thoughts then.
