Speaking of which, here's our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke for Sunday: =========================================== THE DEAD SEAGULL A father was at the beach with his children when the 5-year-old son ran up to him, grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore where a seagull lay dead in the sand. "Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked. "He died and went to Heaven," the father replied. The boy thought a moment, and then said, "Did God throw him back down?"

BREAKING: Rudy Giuliani in 'Critical Condition' "We do ask that you join us in prayer for America's Mayor Rudy Giuliani." That's what Giuliani's spokesperson Ted Goodman posted on social media on Sunday evening. The former New York City mayor is apparently in a Florida hospital where he is in "critical but stable condition." "Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he's fighting with that same level of strength as we speak," Goodman added, though he didn't touch on the details of exactly why Giuliani is in the hospital in the first place.

What Do You Think Happened After This English Teen Converted to Islam? [...] the Oxford Mail recently ran an article about a young English lad from Oxfordshire who "converted to Islam as a teenager." That must mean that he converted within the last three years, as we're told that he is sixteen now. Judging on the basis of what we're told about Islam and "Islamophobia," one might have expected this story to be all about how Islam transformed this young fellow's life, and led him to feel better, act better, and live better. One might have expected to read happy quotations from the boy's parents, all about, say, how he had fallen in with a rough crowd, and there are just so many temptations facing young people these days, but then he discovered the Qur'an, and since then, has been quiet, studious, courteous, and serious about bettering himself and making something of himself in this cruel world. The whole story might have been another establishment media attempt to reassure Britons who are jittery about their country's present and downright fearful about its future.

Friday morn, just after midnight, there occurred a hailstorm that lasted about 15 minutes. I had never been through a storm that severe, and didn't know what it was at first. Cat T-B. was aysheep-terrified. Not even during house window-replacement was she like this. Of course, during the latter, she could (and did) hide under beds. I had to stroke and brush her, and otherwise act unconcerned myself (don't know if cats can perceive that). Cat T-B. has never reacted to even the severest thunderstorms, so this was different. How do you calm yours in these situations?

Thrilling Saturday non-ES report, see man: Finally -- restful overnight zzz, unbelievable man. No early awakening from pain or texts or calls, no and no and no man. Spectacular weather, polar opposite of Friday man. Breakfast was one-Many'rd of the Sam's chicken salad, ingest we man. Had just finished second ES when Mama T-B. called, aysheep senior she man man. The idiot help had again spilled her water on her bed, idiots man. They further threw out her styrofoam water cups, idiots man. They also failed to adjust her pillow properly, idiots man. It was time for shift-change and the idiots were eager to leave, man. Helpless Mama T-B. faces this every single day, outrageous man. This place is not for the completely bedridden, no man. We visited right away to get new water cups & lids, readily found in kitchen man. Caddied weekly pills, caddy we man. Went through usual supply-level reaffirmation & reorganizing of linens, do this every visit we man. Unsuccessfully tried not to yell when Mama T-B. yelled, sigh man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. & Mini-B. will visit Sunday to fix the phone cord damaged by the idiots, sigh man. After hourlong visit, finished Two Guys Week grocerying, grocery we man. Serviced demanding miu, Where Were You Daddy miu man. Lunch/din-din was 2 half-sandwiches + pickle slice donated by Mama T-B., ingest we man. A restful (!!?) siesta was then taken, zzz we man. Din-din was one-Many'th of the Sam's chicken salad, ingest half of the remainder we man. New Garmin GPS unit arrived, Amazon Prime man. ChatGPT very helpful in updating/programming process, helpful fake man man man. This is a Garmin Many, replacing a Garmin Many man.

No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. No plans for Sunday other than our LL & to dish the warsher, domestic we man. And that was/is our thrilling Saturday, report we man.

Keep the top one out of the chocolate pudding, LS ma'am!

You're sounding like me, now.

Or, Dispirited?

The first leads to the second, and the second reinforces the first.

Three of the legacy airlines are capping fees to enable, uh, Spiritless passengers to rebook. Remember that Pocahontas is 1/1,592,038,771% Navajo Indian, so = her people. Should've let JetBlue or Frontier buy them. Ah, hindsight. Bureau of Indian Affairs!
