It's a wonderful time for political satirists and cartoonists! Quebec's giving Americans a run for their money this week, but I still have to say the first one is my favorite.
This is going to surprise you...


...in two ways.


First, I like a Canadian cartoon, the Star Trek one..


...and I like a second one, the fatwa on maple syrup, too for a tie this week for my favorite cartoon. They both made LOL. :)


Thanks, John, for the laughs and see you later on the gridiron. :)

Canada's stance on Iran is confusing - but that is for the Iranian People to Decide.


Clinton's speech was huge in many ways - I liked watching him.
One point he said:"when asked the Republicans about which loop holes in the tax code they will plug, they say, 'see me after the election'


The camera cuts to some people who are visibly "shocked" !


Come on, are you living under a rock or doing this to get on TV ?


Quebec - Oh boy ! Here we go again !


Pinocchio - My favourite.

I liked that first one too, Paula. And yes, the Quebec election provided plenty of fodder for Canadian cartoonists this week.

Hey Dufus! A nice cross-section here, I salute your partisan spread. Still, the ones about the GOP made me laugh, especially The Good, The Bad and The Ugly! Indigo

I knew I'd finally get you. I think I may have acclimatized you to Canadian issues. Now all you have to do is move here.
nonamedufus said…
Yeah, Jaffer, I think Clinton faired much better than Clint and his empty chair.

A provincial election in Canada and 2 political conventions in the States made for some pretty great material for editorial cartoonists on both sides of the border, Indigo.

totally, hilarious!!
nonamedufus said…
It was an excellent week, Meleah.
Lauren said…
Yep, that accurately sums things up. LOL! Funny stuff.
nonamedufus said…
Oh, it was a pretty whacky week, Lauren
Nicky said…
I love the woman choosing Michelle or Ann instead. Nice way to recap the week, Dufus.
nonamedufus said…
Thanks, Nicky. Nice to see you talking to me again.
Nicky said…
I never stopped talking to you, silly man! It's just that you couldn't hear me over all the noise at the airport... oh, wait, never mind.

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav...
