   I thought it was Astro from the Jetsons.

   Okay – that made me laugh out loud. Nice one.

   I keep reminding myself that we’re taking the necessary baby steps — 9 years to get a man from orbiting earth to have people walking on the moon doesn’t provide a lot of learning time, and really moving into space — walking on other planets, much less getting beyond the solar system — does require some really deep knowledge that we just didn’t have in 1969. I was 18 when we landed on the moon; it’s taken us 50+ years but it looks like we’ll be going back, and with a much better chance for staying there this time. I hope I’m still alive to see it.

   The DEMOCRATS are masters of cover-ups, mail-in ballots and throwing the election day process into weeks long post-election chaos???? Maybe you’re right, though, in one respect – the Republicans are masters of 11=MONTHS-long cover-ups and post-election-day chaos. You might want to see a doctor about those hallucinations of yours.

   While I have a different vote for my all-time best Bloom County strips, this one was really, really great — and I’d forgotten about it. Thanks for posting the URL and making my day!

   I also liked Barry Manilow. He wasn’t The Beatles, the Stones, the Who or Pink Floyd but he didn’t try to be. Not every song has to be rock ‘n’ roll, soul, or R & B; some are just fun to sing along to, and I enjoyed singing along to Manilow’s songs the way I enjoyed singing along to Bette Midler. Still do. (As I do The Beatles, the Stones, Pink Floyd, …)

   A LONG time ago Discovery Channel had a commercial where you saw some guy watching a bathtub of water, then a woman in a kitchen standing back looking at a sink of sudsy water and dirty dishes, then a couple of kids standing staring at a swimming pool… there may have been more. After all the vignettes you saw the Discovery logo and a voice said just “Shark week’s back…” It was only the second year they were doing a shark week. Funniest commercial I ever saw up until “he’s got money coming out of his wahzoo” during one of the Super Bowls.

    “An acquaintance who worked on several Dem campaigns”… You imply that your acquaintance was therefore privy to some sort of insider top-level Democrat secret policy… because the person worked on several campaigns. Really???? Chances are your acquaintance never even talked directly with a candidate.
