You have no idea what a relief it is, to stop pretending to be ignorant doofuses: Tom Tomorrow wants you to know how simple it really is, once you give in.

Hat-Tip to the Rhyzome for these next two: First: How do the Taiwanese explain the Tea Party to each other? Well, maybe something like this.

Get a couple of song birds today! "Taming the Cat," directed in 1948 by Connie Rasinski, is a fine example of the Heckle and Jeckle genre: The cat wants a new song bird to feast on; H & J show up, looking for a cozy spot for the winter; and wacky complications ensue. (This must be a Jimmy Durante week!)
p3 Bonus Toon: It's a pretty nasty irony: Oregon state employees bargained away raises 20 years ago in favor of theoretical bumps to their retirement accounts.
