Cartoon Saturday


Excuse me while I look for the reset button on this week ... 

Hunter Biden's trial on felony charges of weapon possession as a drug user continued in Delaware as his father - the President - refused to intervene or comment on the proceedings*; Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas updated his financial disclosure report, disclosing - among other things - a 2019 trip to Bali paid for by a GOP megadonor, while other justices reported sizable income from a wide variety of sources; Boeing scored a long-hoped-for win when its Starliner spacecraft successfully launched from Cape Kennedy and docked at the International Space Station; President Biden and European leaders visited the beaches of Normandy in France to honor the 80th anniversary of the Operation Overlord landings during World War II; and in (where else?) Florida, a woman was arrested after calling the local sheriff's office to report herself for trying to steal a car from a dealership so she “could do it legally” ... she told responding deputies she was being trained to steal a car in a "game of Black Ops," but had called the police to make her carjacking "legal."

It's another random cartoon week ... I promise to go back to themed cartoons next week.

We lead off with two looks at medieval warfare; first, a cautionary tale about properly training your troops to use new weapons ...


And second, the importance of actually reading the instructions ...


Well, we've tried everything else ...


Me, too! ...


You can overthink things ...


It's a very well-kept secret ...


When the FBI gets around to searching the garage at Mar-a-Lago ...


Mine are, too ...
 

As I might have guessed ...


First contact will probably look like this ...


Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday comes to June.

* Strangely, Republicans who have howled loudly and nonstop about Biden's alleged ruthless legal persecution of Der Furor have ignored the President's hands-off approach to the trial of his own son ... hmmm ...

    Good ones! Random cartoons are always fun. I especially like the early battering ram, alone with my demons and the evolution ones. Thanks!
