Cartoon Saturday


If you had high hopes for July, I'm sorry.

ICE agents have murdered yet another person, this time in Houston, Texas; hundreds of venomous snakes escaped from flooded breeding farms as severe storms battered parts of southern China; Der Furor capped off his trip to the NATO summit in Ankara, Türkiye, by insulting allies and enemies alike; researchers have declared a "catastrophic mortality event" as 145 gray whales have been found stranded dead on the West Coast, from Mexico to Canada, making 2026 one of the deadliest years on record for the marine mammals; the landmark housing affordability and availability bill became law without Der Furor's signature after he refused to sign it in an attempt to blackmail Congress into passing his voting restriction measure; and in Lebanon, Tennessee, a man was arrested at a Walmart store after employees reported him lying naked on a pallet of dog food.

This week, to help you cope with the slow death of American democracy, a collection of cartoons about wine. 

Funny thing - that's what my doctor said ...


I've been to places like this ...


I get this warning a lot ...


Yes!


Well, heck ...


Sort of like the zodiac, but for wine aficionados ...


I ask this question a lot ...


I usually go with the third option ...


I remember my college years, when Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill was the house wine ...


I've been to wine tastings like this ...


And that's the way we raise a glass to surviving another week! I hope you enjoyed this collection of cartoons about the delights of adult grape juice.

Have a good day and come back tomorrow to end the week on a high note with Mary Chapin Carpenter on Musical Sunday ... more thoughts then.
