Okay, I think we've Septembered enough ... can we just move on?
NATO scrambled fighter jets earlier this week in reaction to Russian attack drones that violated Polish airspace; right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, a vocal supporter of gun rights, was murdered during an appearance at a rally in Utah; Israel attacked the headquarters of Hamas in Qatar, an important American ally in the Middle East, in an attempt to kill the groups leaders ... Israeli president Isaac Herzog excused the attack by saying the attack was necessary to "remove some of the people if they are not willing to get a deal," leading Der Furor to ask Defense War Secretary Pete Hegseth if this approach could be used on Congressional Democrats; and in Arizona, a man with a history of filing fake documents was released from prison 20 years early after forging an order showing that a judge had approved his release.
This week, since Mike gets so many positive comments on his "Thursday Trees" posts, I thought I might bask in his reflected glory with a collection of cartoons about - trees!
I've heard that Gloria Gaynor loves trees ...
Nope, not a typo ...
When maple trees donate, nobody asks their sap type ...
Rodger's wife is in for a surprise ...
Tree puns, anyone?
If squirrels tickle, woodpeckers must be the acupuncturists of the arboreal world ...
How we view trees ...
No comment necessary ...
Looking at the bright side ...
Visiting the old homestead ...
I think that's enough ... I should quit while I'm ahead and not make an ash of myself. Maple I'll try this theme again later, if that's oak-ay with you. In the meantime, I'll leave Mike at the elm of the ship of trees.
Have a good day and a great weekend and come back tomorrow, when Poetry Sunday celebrates outdoor plumbing. More thoughts coming.

Nice collection. Most of them I've never seen. I have seen the "How we view trees" and "Gloria Gaynor loves trees". Gloria is a thinker.
These are wonderful! Hadn't seen most. The sap donations and squirrels tickle made laugh. Know and love How we view trees. I think it's Sergio Argones (spell?) and was in Mad magazine.
Good stuff - I never thought there would be so many cartoons about trees :)
