If the Halloween season isn't frightening enough, there's still the news ...
Hurricane Milton roared across central Florida this week, wreaking more havoc on a state already reeling from the destructive effects of Hurricane Helene and the governorship of Ron DeSantis; war continued to rage in the Middle East, with Israel and Hizballah forces continued to battle in Lebanon; the Oklahoma State Superintendent directed the purchase of tens of thousands of bibles for the state's public schools, and the specifications for the contracted bibles matched only the "God Bless the USA Bible ... the only bible endorsed by [Der Furor]" ... which are printed in China; and in the latest case of rampant illegal immigration, a Chinese woman has been arrested in Vermont for attempting to smuggle 29 eastern box turtles, a protected species, across a Vermont lake into Canada by kayak.
For our second Halloween-themed Cartoon Saturday, we visit (after sundown, of course) with everyone's favorite bloodsucker not employed by a collection agency or your local loan shark - Dracula ...
Somebody's in trouble ...
When doctors face off against vampires ...
Even the undead keep up with the times ...
Who's more frightened? ...
Practicing defensive eating ...
I guess the old coffin wasn't comfortable enough ...
We may need to update our definition of what constitutes a monster for a new era ...
Okay, vampire boomer ...
Dracula's dog ...
What was the ... dead ... giveaway? ...
And that's it for our Cartoon Saturday visit to Transylvania, and other parts. Hope you enjoyed it!
Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday takes its own first look at Halloween. See you then.
