   Actually, little key, you had a purpose in life and it has either been forgotten or become obsolete for some reason. Very unlikely you will have another purpose like the one you were created for, but you may be turned into some sort of art or collection by some talented soul. Good luck!

   Just go to Snopes or Politico or simply google “did trump call McCain a loser” and watch the video of the interview where he said it and listen to the words come out of his mouth in the video. I’d paste the URL for you and make it really easy, but GoComics won’t allow it. But, frankly, it’s a no-brainer, whelan, that T did indeed call John McCain, an American military veteran, a loser, denied he was a war hero and that he’s only considered one because he was captured and then states he only likes people who weren’t captured. Have you honestly never seen that? WTF? Get your head out of the sand, dude.

   Just think about that statement and what it says about all the millions of soldiers who not only served, but were captured because they were fighting and serving their country, and also for those who were killed. If T doesn’t like those who were captured, he must think those who got killed were the ultimate losers. And that’s not T’s only incident of insulting American troops. T cheated his way out of even serving, what does he really know about what goes on in battle? His little phony cadet stint in a so-called military school? He knows absolutely nothing. If anything is disgusting, it’s the orange/yellow makeup mask he wears to try to conceal his sick pathetic face. He’s a chump. Period.

   I don’t get this guy Stantis. He took many ridiculous potshots at Kamala in the days leading up to the election. Now he does comics moaning about who won. Make up your mind, buddy. You and others with a public voice contributed to her loss and the orange messiah’s win. Thanks a lot.

   Concealer is a type of makeup that covers blemishes on the face…I think. I’ve never used it. But the gag is that the interrogator isn’t getting any answers out of him because he’s “concealing” the truth. I think. Hope this helps.

   I can relate. Got my Farmer’s Almanac Gardening calendar a couple months ago but won’t fill in the dates (mostly birthdays and anniversaries) until December when I unwrap and get ready to put it on the wall. The doc appts. will come after, though, no doubt.

   Unlike elephants, dogs and cats are domesticated creatures, of which there are billions, again, unlike elephants. While they can survive on their own, most don’t thrive in those conditions and, maybe most importantly, they don’t really live in the close and long-lived family structures that elephants do. That being said, I have come to feel more as their caretakers, not their “owners”. Just doesn’t feel right for me to think that I should own another living being, even a cat or dog, it just doesn’t connote a good vibe for me.

   I watched a segment on a nature show last night that showed a team of bear researchers going into a den in the woods, darting the sow and then taking her cubs out to measure, weigh, take blood and hair samples, collar the sow, etc. The cubs were trembling and crying during the process of being pulled away from their mother. The head female researcher stated that as the mother of a 7-month-old child she felt protective of the cubs while they were handling them. I couldn’t help wonder how in a Twilight Zone-ish scenario she would feel if a team of people/aliens broke into her home, darted and drugged her, took her children out and treated and traumatized them and her (all for the cause of research, of course) the way that mamma bear and cubs were. Just the way my brain works now, I guess, after so many decades of watching this kind of activity.

   Juggling, maybe?

    I think what they really love is being left in nature with their herd family and allowed to live their lives as nature intended. Just because they react or respond to cues to perform tasks or tricks for their human enslavers, doesn’t mean they love it. Yes, I’ve seen programs where the mahouts profess their “love” for their elephants. They take them to the river, they bathe them, give them treats, etc. But imagine you were stolen/ripped away as a baby from your family and raised by strangers, forced to live away from the creatures that you can truly bond with, mate with, spend your life with. Instead you are a captive and forced to live amongst a foreign species. It would be all you know and you would respond to stimuli as you’ve been trained, possibly at the risk of punishment if you didn’t.
