I was wondering when they’d get around to this… And it’s as accurate as anything you’ll see in the media…

Tell me again how long it is until we’re all doomed…

And she would know; she’s been there often…what?…oh…

Well, if Kamala and Joe both say so…

I hear the Post Office is issuing a new stamp.  You have to use millions of them to mail a letter, so I guess it’s kind of inflationary…

Now I understand that movie…

I hear the NSA has some pretty fancy computers…

Thanks for clearing that up…

And that…

And that…

And especially that…

A lot like Kool-Aid Man…

I couldn’t agree more…

Finally, the photo from my FOIA request is in…

Separated at birth?

Great moments in criminal justice policy…

The passage of time…

Bill particularly doesn’t have a problem with that…

Great moments in flight…

Uh, isn’t snow just frozen water, and isn’t water odorless?

How many times can one woman die for us?  She’s selfless!

That right there is a clear 8th Amendment violation…

Yeah, but that’s only because Republicans cause hurricanes, and climate change, and Trump, and…

Unsung heroes of sanitation…

And Florida, and the rest of Flyover Country…

And the next hurricane?

This, gentle readers, is a true hero…

And in the just because it’s cute, and tear jerking, category for this week…

Awwwwwwwww…

If you haven’t already, consider buying a copy of License To Kill. If you’re interested in how the police get it wrong, there is no better primer.

If you get the book directly through the publisher, I’ll make a few cents more than if you get it at Amazon. It’s $17.99 at either source, and Amazon has a $4.99 Kindle edition.  Positive comments on Amazon about LTK would be great too.  Go here to comment.

And now, more humor from Richard Lederer’s classic book The Revenge Of Anguished English, which is a collection of accidentally funny things people have written.  This week, more student science writing bloopers:

“Clouds are high-flying fogs.  I am not sure how clouds get formed.  But the clouds know how to do it, and that is the important thing. Clouds keep circling the earth around and around.  And around.  There is not much else to do.”

“Humidity is the experience of looking for air and finding water.  We keep track of the humidity in the air so we won’t drown when we breathe.”

“A hurricane is a breeze of a bigly size.”

“The water is like the air, only pushier.”

“Iron was first smelled in 1759.”

“A molecule is so small it can’t be seen by the naked observer.”

“A fossil is an extinct animal.  The older it is, the more extinct it gets.”

“Heredity means that if your grandfather didn’t have any children, then your father probably wouldn’t have any, and neither would you, probably.”

These days we need humor more than ever.  I’ll see you next Sunday, and I hope, every other day too!
