Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for November 07, 2024

If the mere prospect of Project 2025 didn’t scare the bejesus out of you, get set for the reality of it!

Huh??

Was that Danae? If so, she’s been off the good list for a long, long time.

So everyone is evil?

wonder how long – if ever- the comments sections on political cartoons will be think never!

This “Fire in the hole” and the (common oral and always-relevant scriptural) universal flood story might be linked as “Strap in Tight” contemporary commentary editorial/cautionary notes?

(PS: I did find our V.P.’s gracious and grace-full call to keep faith/trust, hope, and “keep working hard” address yesterday a fine and fitting finishing touch.)

Will someone explain this one for me?

Really?

Sure The Count gnows ‘em. He’s The Count’s uncle.

Went to the library…lady had a new book…“smallest book in the world”, she says…

“Great Political Speeches of donald (duck) trump”

Wonder if trump will realize, 21 January, he’s redundant. If he was worried about poisoning in the past…

“Fire in the hole” is an expression indicating that an explosive detonation in a confined space is imminent. It originated from American miners, who needed to warn their fellows that a charge had been set. Mining regulations required it be said three times [ “The shot firer must give a loud, verbal warning such as ‘fire in the hole’ at least three times before blasting”] to ensure everyone had time to hear it and clear the area.

The military later adopting this same phrase for similar explosive warnings, in particular relating to grenades or bomb squads. NASA has used the term to describe the staging of a multistage rocket vehicle by igniting the upper stage simultaneously with the ejection of the lower stage, without a usual delay of several seconds.

In ordinary everyday life, it is a catchphrase for “Watch out!” or “Heads up.”

In war, knowing your enemy’s plan can help you win the war.

Caught Danae’s attention.

I wuz just tinkin’…

Many countries have had Prime Ministers or Presidents who were found to be criminals, thieves mostly.

The United States is the first to elect a convicted rapist to the Presidency. trump, making history, the hard way.

When I get a little down, I find solace in music, listen to Harry Chapin’s “Circle”, see if it helps you.

We’ve been thru worse than this schmuck, be strong.

OOs XXs Redd

is he even going to make it 4 years. i don’t think so!

Alas, we have all misjudged Donald Trump, myself included. I had always thought of him as a lazy, incompetent, bigoted pervert unfit to moderate a game of Dungeons and Dragons.

He is, in fact, the greatest con artist in American history.

The worst president in our history, according to historians, was just re-elected. America is not going to be “great again” because it is FUBAR.

Yeah, I’ll pass thank you …. ;-)

Save these comments and reread them in two years. The stupidity will astound you.

President Biden was talking today about a “smooth transition of power”. Are there Democrats who wanted to do an “Alamo” ?

(I also considered Masada as an example, but I thought that might be too obscure. And maybe too Jewish.)

All the altruistic people have not disappeared. Checks and balances are still in place. Good people of both parties will try to hold the line. Do not despair, but prepare.

Happy little explosions.

How did Danae get her hands on that much explosives?
