   I’ve read, on the Internet (therefore it most likely isn’t true) that Ivanka and Jared are being groomed to be the Orange Oaf’s successors. Oh and one other thing. Perhaps a fellow reader can answer this question for me: Ivan is the Slavic equivalent of the English name “John”; therefore is Ivanka the Slovic equivalent of “Johnetta”? I mean Johnetta does sound sort of hillbilly-ish doesn’t it?

   Hmmm. By “Planet falls to Who…” Are you referencing The Doctor? He will save us. He has before many times. :D

   Well, I believe Elon Musk is working on space travel.

   Rube’s in big trouble. He drew Mickey Mouse, er, to protect myself, I’ll call him, um, Ralph the Mouse. Yeah, that’s the ticket. Ralph the Mouse. Disney will sue anybody that might infringe on their property, no matter how “fringey” the infringement might be.

   During the age of the “underground comics” in the 60’s (think Robert Crumb) an artist that drew a strip named “Mickey Rat” (no longer remember his or her name). He/She got sued by Disney, even tho there was only a slight artistic resemblance between the 2 characters. The infringement was based on the use of the name, “Mickey.”

   Disney may cast itself as family-friendly, but deep down they are ruthless. AKA, that’s why I changed the Mouse’s name in my remarks. I don’t want to get sued for copyright infringement for using Its name without permission. BTW Disney’s original name for Mickey was going to be Mickey, the Irish Mouse. That was too offensive, even for those times.

   Yet another useless tech gadget. I know. T & M made it up. But think of the Alexa gadgets. I’m sure it was inspired by TV science fiction—and is totally useless except for the extreeeeemly lazy.

   Just like Dubya’s Iraq war.

   War is an important part of the ’throwaway" consumer culture. Gotta keep making more military stuff for both sides and watch the $$ flow in.

   Phew! I saw George in the last panel inferring that he may be eliminated from the strip. And then I saw that R.J. and Verne were there as well. George lives!!!!

    You should know better than to insinuate that God lives on a planet named Xeq. Shame on you. He lives on the planet Kolob. Ask any Mormon.
