In light of all the action that's going on in the world today, I do believe that sometimes, we need to stop and smell the roses. I bring to you enough cartoons that will really have you "LMAO", so to speak.

So, check it out. It's fun and funny.

Have a great time.

Thank you for a very valuable tip!

I love satire. Ever since I first saw MAD comics (and later magazine) when I was 12, in 1953, I have loved satire.

If you are into the forum, you might like to look up my many postings. Your comments are welcome.

Thank you again!

Mike McLean

Oh dear, I have this failing.

From a classic WB cartoon, as the little fellow takes a sip from the little bottle of Jeikle and Hyde juice.

LISTEN YOU! IF YOU WANT ME TO GET DOWN TO YOUR LEVEL, i CAN! i HAVE OFTEN THOUGHT OF YOUR obsession WITH CAPS1 GET OFF MY BACK, YOU SILLY LITTLE SMALL utter jerk1 Naaaa!

How are you, Stu? You are my friend.

I saw a total nasty person on "Blind Date."

I saw myself. Now I am on a new program. There is nothing wrong with being nice.

You live near me. Let's have lunch. Larry is a really wonderful fellow. You should meet him. He plays bass.

Lets "do" lunch!

Sincerely,

Mike McLean (now reformed from addiction to being a miserable crabby-poo)

Nursing old wounds.

It is your option.

I maintain that I am crabby no longer about how popular music opinions, typed in caps, are below me.

Take my word, or lick your wounds.

I meant what I said. I have risen above my old attitude.

If it makes you feel any better, I am drunk right now. The difference is that I am not taking my hang-ups out on you.

My new attitude is that I want to "make up" with all those poor folks that I roughed up, with my self-centered manner, on the forum.

Actually, I have seen several examples on "blind date" of persons who develope bad attitudes about being abusive toward folks that don't seem to suit them.

I have been through a big email exchange with "Mr. Magic" His name is Raymon Richardson. He is my friend. I have discovered that he is a fine and wonderful person.

There is no question that finding decency is a constant problem that we humans need to worry about. Crocadiles rip antilopes from the water like bubble gum, but they pick up their young in their mouths and transport them to safe places.

Decency.

I am back on the forum. I don't know what I am going to do with that fact, but I am sure that I will be no more Mr.Hyde.

I really am not a person who has much rapport with this forum. I am sure that you know what I mean.

I am very lonely. I "had and affair" with the forum. The forum is huge, and I have little interest in the discussion.

I am sorry that I was offensive. I wish you all well. There is nothing wrong at all with being totally obsessed with beat based music, to the point that you never consider the possibility that elegant music could be ...........

No more of this sort of expression.

I looked over the latest postings tonight. I have nothing in common with almost all of them.

Love,

Mike McLean
