Anyone else wondering what Jerry Holbert is up to these days?







Some of the best-executed punchlines in political cartooning, that's what :allears:

Also the governor of Massachusetts, Deval Patrick, has declined to run for reelection (so he can run for national office in 2016 :pray:). Holbert still wants you to know he doesn't like him.

No I am not going to let that go.

They probably hijacked that jet if they're going straight to Texas, since JFK is the only airport in North America with scheduled direct service from Kiev, and that sure as hell isn't in Texas.

(Muir does appear to have oilified a Ukraine International Airlines jet there, though; I'll give him that.)

Also isn't literally the only reason the duck got hired was because it is a duck and thus a "minority", and it proceeded to sit around complaining about how everybody else aren't pulling themselves up by their bootstraps.

Successful people being hypocritical about the support and assistance they received on their way up? What is the world coming to?

I'm pretty sure what Sanrio was trying to get across was that all the characters from Hello Kitty are actually normal humans living their lives, but are drawn as animals for the sake of whimsy and cuteness.

Instead stupid people interpret this as "IT'S A FREAKISH PERSON WHO LOOKS LIKE A CAT"

Yeah, someone posted this on Facebook like it was some incredible revelation and I didn't even know how to respond. I guess everyone has some quota of excitement and mystery in their lives that has to be filled with something, and if there's nothing else going on it's going to be whether Hello Kitty is a cat or not.

What would be an appropriate diminutive of Vladimir?

I was more amused to discover that she's a Londoner, thanks to Japan going through an Anglophilic phase in the 70s/80s (see also Sylvanian Families).

Volodya, as a shorthand for the old-timey Volodimir (sibling to the gothic Waldemar), Vova for a friendier one, Vovochka if you think Putin is a child, Vovan if you are feeling thuggy.
