Excellent funnies! I thought the one about “mother’s fearing for the safety of their sons who are participating in robbery: to be sadly all to true in our current society. Frankly, I always feel a certain sigh of relief when someone “takes out the trash” so to speak. We all suffer when today’s mother’s do such a horrifically poor job of bringing up their children properly.
Great post, DCG! I actually couldn’t pick a favorite! But Beaker has always been a favorite Muppet character.

Great funnies! Love all but partial to the one about Public Schools 🙂 since I teach. Nearing my 30 yr-mark, will retire then, & have seen education “morph” fr public education in the 3 R’s, into socio-political agenda today. I have to remember student’s individual pronouns, have to keep secrets fr parents who are begging me for information on why their child has “suddenly” changed into a stranger who fails every class, have to keep secret that there is a “LGBTQ+” lunch time “club” on my campus…..& continuing BS that stresses & shames me as a public school teacher. Plus now, the climate crap. Here in CA, if I don’t follow these edicts, I will not only lose my job, but my retirement pension that I’ve earned through many hard, long years. As it is, I started teaching late, after my kids were older. I am well-past “normal” retirement yrs, with recent health probs, and still working. To my mind, it’s a sort of “extortion” that they put out here in CA to teachers to make us “line up” with their agenda. The minute I retire, I’m outta here for an East Coast conservative, low tax/no tax state….in the wake of so many like me fleeing Mexifornia.
So good and so true.

You are so right about that. This what happens when they take God out of everything it all goes to h_ll in a hand-basket.
