There have been, sadly, a lot of celebrity deaths recently. I guess as my peers get older, like me, they are going to start to go. But hearing about Catherine O'Hara just gutted me. The fact that she remained relevant and funny till the end. The fact that she was only five (!) years older than me.

Dozens (maybe hundreds) of people drove by No Kings Belton and honked or gave a thumbs up. I counted three who gave a negative sign. Small contingent of Trumpers met with shouts of “Shame on you!”

It's Gary Larson's birthday. In honor of that event, here are my two favorite Far Side cartoons:
A group of academics in lab coats sitting in a lecture hall. All but one have ducks in their laps. The academic without a duck has his eyes open in terror. The caption reads "Suddenly, Professor Liebowitz realizes he has come to the seminar without his duck."From inside a house, we see through a window the street where two trucks have collided. One truck is marked "Bob's Assorted Rodents" and the other, "Al's Small, Flightless Birds." Mice and birds are wandering the street as the two truck drivers argue. Inside the house, his entire body pressed against the glass, is a tabby cat wishing desperately he could get out.

Everybody else is posting cat photos. so I thought I'd make my very first post on BlueSky a National Cat Day post: So, say hi to Kali (left) and Magic:
Kali, our calico cat, crouching on the bed. She loves it when we change the sheets.Magic, my black cat, hiding my iPad so I can't go to work and leave her.
