Edit: looks like Putin's canning his military leaders.  WP article, may be behind a paywall but I was able to read it for some reason.

Another careless cigarette smoking incident, no doubt.

Salty! In the blue - "Head Office of DCNC of Ukraine in Kiyv" In the red - "Is the Kremlin burning? Telephone 101, we also want to see it"

Apparently, nobody told the Russians to avoid the "honeypot".

What made Putin the schmuck he is?

Just wait for winter, the Russians said. We're used to fighting in winter...

It don't work that way. You retire early, you get a lot less money. Plus, you won't be on Medicaid until 65, so you're going to have to pay for insurance out of pocket (say about $900/mo). It would only work if you have a lot saved in retirement funds, which are currently being depleted in this market (but it's a paper loss).

Yes, whatever you do don't buy into the market while the stock prices are depressed. Wait until they're really high again.

Maybe Putin will start seeing Nazis everywhere, including in his own cabinet, and go the "Ramos Clemente" route.

The problem is that Trump didn't come out of nowhere and isn't globally popular. I can only think of one person that comes close to those factors and I'm hoping I'm way off the mark.

https://www.gocomics.com/nonsequitur/2022/09/30 Back story - Wiley once had a wide distribution in a number of newspapers. He mistakenly put "F*ck Trump" in the margin of a panel of one of his comics and forgot to remove it before sending it in (I think it was around the holidays & he had a bunch of family in-house). Whoever was supposed to proof his stuff missed it and it even made it into some papers. It's been years since then and he's still not in print in many places.

Or maybe he's about to witness the opening of the Ark.

As a weatherman used to say down there - "JAPDIP".

Here's Keith to help...

Who's playing dumb? I'm merely saying that if you excise the entire musical portion, change the lyrics and just tack on a different refrain or some extra flourish, you aren't sampling. Hendrix "Star Spangled Banner", not sampling. Vanilla Ice excising the baseline riff from "Under Pressure", sampling (and annoying). Even further back than the 60s. there's the whole composer's doing "Variations on a theme by [some other composer]" thing. Which is similar to a Jazz musician riffing on some previously recorded song. I still haven't picked out where The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony" is sampling ""Last Time" by the Rolling Stones. But it isn't one of my favorite Stones songs anyway.
