Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for April 25, 2022

Took a second … then Bahahahaha!

Also useful for board games and playing cards.

It didn’t take long for Agent 99 to get smart.

make that even sound-proof … yes …. the perfect place i wanna be

Nice Painting on the wall behind her.

Makes perfect sense.

Great idea. If only…….

It’s not so much that the cats will steal a puzzle piece but, they just knock everything off the table. That’s the worst thing.

I definitely need one of those.

Good one Mark!

Now we see the cat try to leap from the top of the curtains to one of those big air holes at the top of it.

Dueseldorf!

do they have something similar to that?

My wife uses one of those green roll up things. You can buy them in any Arts and Crafts store. She’s never lost a piece!

Control invented the Cones of Silence back in the 60’s

LOL! True

reminds me of the “Cone of Silence” on the old tv show “Get Smart”

I need one of those!

Love it! You must have cats, too. Thanks for the laugh. Great way to start a day.

Haven’t figured out yet how you get in and out of it?

This reminds me of a sitcom In the later half of the 1960s about an inept spy named Maxwell Smart that used a similar device, but for a different reason. Every time Mr Smart and his boss were having a secret conference in the bosses office, a clear plastic box called the “Cone of Silence” would descend from the celling and cover their heads to prevent others from hearing the conversation. https://youtu.be/g1eUIK9CihA

I want one for when I am reading.

Can the cat stretch enough to cover all the air holes, or will he need to bring in some friends?

Anybody who has a cat, will understand this immediately.

Looked like a giant snow globe at first to me.

“Sorry about that, Chief.”

People are making references to the Cone of Silence from “Get Smart”. I prefer the Angry Dome from “Futurama”:
