Phone Fun
Do you ever have days when you just feel uninspired? Me too. In fact, yesterday was one of them. So today, instead of the post I had planned, I’m rerunning one of my favorites, this time from five years ago. “Mr. Anderson, this is the Traffic Department calling. We are calling about a claim regarding […]
Only In Canada
I came across this sign while walking through the truckers’ protest in downtown Ottawa. I had to look twice to make sure I understood. As far as I can tell, someone is trying to sell a snowbank on the side of the road. Can that really be the case? I doubt there were any takers. […]
Friday At Last!
I was sitting down to edit today’s post about the ongoing trucker protest in Ottawa when my fingers rebelled. “Enough of this,” they screamed. “Why can’t we be funny on Friday?” Who am I to argue with my fingers? Hopefully today’s cartoons actually are funny.
Saturday Smiles
I have written quite a bit about the ongoing truckers’ protest in Ottawa this week, but I’m letting it percolate for a bit before sharing it. Part of my problem is that I sympathize with the residents of Centretown who are tired of the noise and traffic jam and just want their lives back. Understandably, […]

The groundhog options are limited, and the same no matter which groundhog you follow and in which country he or she resides. If the groundhog sees […]
Already?
It is the first day of February, or, if you prefer, the 10,321st day of COVID. At least it seems that way. That being the case, let’s just go for a couple of chuckles today and save the deep stuff for another day. I must admit, I think that one daily. I’m sure it is […]
Your Monday Smile
Let us all hope this isn’t a permanent re-arrnaging, and that the new “normal” when it arrives won’t look tooo different from the old one.
2021 In Review: Welcome To Monday
A perennial favorite since I first posted it in November 2017, this graphic was the second most popular post of 2021. Looking at the date, when it first appeared, I suspect I opted for a graphic-only post because I was on an international flight that day and didn’t have time to write anything more. (Does […]
