The Death of Conversation … by Smart Phone

Captain Rick : What happened to the times when people actually talked to each other? It seems like everyone has their head stuck in their smart phone. They can’t drive, walk, work, eat or even relax without one planted in front of their face. I present a few comics to demonstrate the ‘The Death of Conversation … by Smart Phone’.

What should we do with people who rely on gov’t handouts … but are too lazy to work?

Captain Rick: What should we do with people who rely on government handouts, but are too lazy to work? This cartoon sums it up perfectly. Kick them out of Congress.

It is no secret that the majority in the U.S. Congress are very lazy and accomplish basically nothing of any benefit for the people in exchange for a very wealthy salary and benefits. I read today that the current US Congress is even more ‘do nothing’ than the record ‘do nothing Congress’ during the President Truman days in the 1940s. Perhaps Obama will go on record with Truman as being the two most ‘do nothing’ presidents (both Democrats) in the past 100 years. I should clarify that…Truman did achieve great destruction overseas. He gave the approval to drop the nuclear bombs on Japan. I have to agree with the cartoon…’Kick them out of Congress’. But then…we are still left with a ‘do nothing’ president…except for his countless ‘executive actions’ which serve his personal agenda at the expense of escalating the US National Debt.

Obamacare … in the eye of the Cartoonists

Captain Rick: Obamacare will likely become one of the biggest socialistic welfare programs in U.S. history. It will help to financially destroy America. For now, lets have some laughs, compliments of some great cartoonists.

Political Humor … With the absence of Common Sense in DC+ … we can use more

Captain Rick: The leaders of our world seem to lack common sense in dealing with the many serious problems that face our world … so I think the best remedy is some political humor.

2013 … in the eye of the Cartoonists … NSA …Gun Control … Obamacare

Captain Rick: 2013 started off with a bang, with gun control at the top of every liberal’s wish list. One scandal after another dominated the headlines over the course of the year, including the NSA Snowden Leak. The Obamacare rollout was the straw that broke the camel’s back — even the President’s supporters turned their backs on him, causing his ratings to drop to new lows.

Captain Rick’s ‘SMILE’ … Flickr taught me how to greet people in every language

Captain Rick: Each day when I am on Flickr tending to my photos and photo groups, I am greeted by the Flickr team in a different language, when my mouse hoovers over my icon. Over the past many months I think I have received a greeting in every language spoken in every country on earth. It has been very educational.

Today I received a new greeting in a language I readily recognized. It is spoken by many of my friends that I meet on my daily morning walks. I congratulate the Flickr team for the huge smile that emerged upon my face when they greeted me with this today…

As a Flickr pioneer (paying member since January 2007), I appreciate the Flickr team for their great support and refinement over the years, especially the recent, totally new, awesome look and feel of Flickr. Your diligent efforts have propelled Flickr to become the most respected, quality home for photographic sharing.

Humor Break: Republicans & Democrats … Man in a boat & Woman in a hot air balloon

Captain Rick: A couple in a hot air balloon realized they were lost. They spotted a couple in a boat below and lowered their altitude so they could shout to each other. The following conversation took place …

Lady in balloon: “Excuse me, can you help us? I promised a some friends we would meet them an hour ago, but we don’t know where we are at.

Man in boat: The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, “You’re in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a water elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and
100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.”

Lady in balloon: She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be a Republican.”

Man in boat: “I am. How did you know?”

Lady in balloon: “Well, everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”

Man in boat: The man smiled and responded, “You must be a Democrat.”

Lady in balloon: “I am. How did you know?”

Man in boat: “Well, you don’t know where you are or where you’re going. You’ve risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your  problem. You’re in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it’s my fault.”

Fiscal Cliff Cartoon Break: the Sequester

Captain Rick: Its time to take a breather from America’s fiscal calamities to enjoy a Fiscal Cliff…Sequester  “Cartoon Break”.

I welcome your comments, likes and shares!

FISCAL CLIFF: Cartoon Break

Captain Rick: While the Fiscal Cliff is a very important event that will descend upon the U.S. and effect most Americans on January 1, 2013, I urge everyone to take a break from all of the hype presented on TV, radio and the internet to enjoy a little “Fiscal Cliff” humor.

As I mentioned in Captain Rick’s Fiscal Cliff Course 101: Lesson 3, the “Fiscal Cliff” could have been better labeled the “Fiscal Slope” to better economic times. Stay tuned for my continuing report as I “break it all down”. You can view Captain Rick’s FISCAL CLIFF Course 101 here: https://atridim.wordpress.com/category/fiscal-cliff-course-101/

Special thanks to my friend Ken of California for bringing these great works of art to my attention so I can share them with everyone. I hope you can make out the authors and will visit their websites. They deserve our thanks.
