    You’ve got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
    E-lim-i-nate the negative
    Latch on to the affirmative
    Don’t mess with Mr. In-Between
    You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum
    Bring gloom down to the minimum
    Have faith, or pandemonium
    Liable to walk upon the scene
    not just good advice for most of us but an essential (might one even say “existential”) guide for the new congress to adopt rather than messing with those misters-in-between 

  5. Gee Pam how is your second day of 2023 going?  Quite well thank you – did you say 2023?  Damn I could swear this is a repeat of 2020.  I just massaged toothpaste on my wrist instead of Theragesic.

  6. Patd, love the cartoon. Lotta truth there. 

    Sounds like McCarthy is losing support as speaker. Good, but … if not that prick which prick will it be?  Scalise? Is that any better?  They’re like 2 holes in one ass – no matter which you choose you end up with an asshole.

    Better than the other way around.
    Such brain farts are why I use 2 different delivery devices for my Insulin. The long acting once a day with the handy pen needle, Then my Short acting before each meal, with a syringe. My evening, long acting, insulin shot is equal to the days total of short acting insulin. To make a mistake and take a days worth of short acting insulin, just before I went to bed would probably be fatal.

  9. It is the day after and we have hangover cures for click bait in our news feed.
     
    Actually it is the day after the day after so if you are still suffering you might want to read the “dry January article, but only after you read the dangers of alcohol withdrawal.
    BTW, having employed several bad alcoholics for hard sweaty jobs. It can be a problem for some folks.  Little Tony, we always made sure he had his double duce for breakfast, after the time he almost passed out on me. He got all white and shaky. Happened to have a hot wine cooler, (curtesy of the current girlfriend at the time) rolling around in the truck  I got a glass with some ice and after a couple of drinks he perked right up.

  11. Jack – one of my father’s funny about drinking, he worked with a few who did, “I didn’t know he drank until he showed up sober one morning”.

  12. Jack, ya gotta read “Hair of the Dog”, a hilarious baseball/alcohol short story by Wm Price Fox in SOUTHERN FRIED+6.
