  1. Animals photobombing the cameras always make me laugh. Some of those wilderness pictures just look so relaxing.

  2. Holy Guacamole - that bus falling apart - I bet she is glad she did not get on. I wonder how many people were hurt? Lincoln just creeps me out - like a ghost. I love the lampshade cat, the gull close up and the cartoon about Dick - how funny is that?

  3. Ricko: I aim to please -- and I get these from a wide range of sources.

    Mary K: And those animals have no idea how funny they are, or how their image is being spread around the net.....

    Lady M: Absolutely terrible construction and/or maintenance on that bus, for that to happen. Must have been a hell of a shock inside.

    I noticed that the Lincoln animation doesn't quite look natural. These things never do, somehow.

    The "Dick" comic panel -- it's funny how the passage of just a few decades gives something a completely new meaning. I wonder what innocuous present-day items will evoke giggles in 2070.

  4. I know the vegetable (technically a fruit, but who wants my expert opinion?) is most likely a cucumber, but I'm reminded of Tim Curry singing "the zucchini song."
