Wonderfully Weird

Cidu Bill on Jul 18th 2009

You know, sometimes you come across a comic that doesn’t exactly make you laugh but is just too bizarre not to love:

I’m Just Wondering…

Cidu Bill on Jul 18th 2009

State workers in Pennsylvania are getting empty pay envelopes for July — not because the state’s run out of money, like California, but because the Legislature hasn’t managed to agree on a 2009-2010 budget and therefore the funds aren’t available.

I’m curious whether they somehow found the money to air condition the State Capitol building; because I’m thinking 303 legislators, no windows, mid-July, suddenly getting the job done is going to seem a lot more urgent to them.

And That’s The Way It Was

Cidu Bill on Jul 18th 2009

Just wondering… Will there be any editorial cartoons about Walter Cronkite’s passing that don’t include the phrase “And that’s the way it was”?

(Note to non-geezers: Cronkite’s sign-off was “And that’s the way it is”)
