The Elephant in the Room on the phone
J. B. Handelsman has a new slant on the proverbial 'not talking about the elephant in the room' metaphorical idiom! - You can view this fabulous cartoon at CartoonStock [CC121678]; unfortunately my budget cannot handle the sticker price to show it on my website.

"I'M AS MAD AS HELL AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANY MORE!"

Even if you have seen the movie years ago, now is a good time to watch it again. Many of our younger readers may not even know about this movie. The mainstream media space has changed a lot since 1976 and many of you are getting your news from social media instead. But the movie is still very pertinent for our time. Take a look. I think you will agree that this has a very powerful message for us all today. [NOSTALGIA]

Reminder to vote NO on Question 1
Reminder to vote NO on Question 1 on November 4th 2025. Details

It is after 4 am so I need to stop and get some sleep, but I will be back tomorrow (probably on my blog) with more alarming current event information for those of you who miss the old weekly emails. As Bette Davis would say, "fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy [ride]."

p.s. I know this belongs in the blog, but I am rushing to update the site whenever I have a few minutes; I will be moving this kind of material to the blog where it belongs very soon.

There is no Authenticate button yet to see the rest of the site (which is always under construction, i.e.: in complete disarray). If you can find an authenticate button, let me know. Try the "Blog" Button instead.

The astute observer will notice that authentication is not actually conducted yet. This website is almost universally constructed with "HI" but some "AI" is bound to creep in at some point, despite my best efforts (and deliberately on occasion).

Note: "HI" = Human Intelligence; "AI" = Artificial Intelligence. LOL
