Let's laugh a little

Click to enlarge the image to see the colorful cats
Do you think Clawdia would recognize her best buddy from down the hall?  It's Sharon in a new mask, Clawdia.  See?  And look at the colorful kitties on her mask.  Ehh, Clawdia isn't interested if no petting ensues, and petting is currently unavailable, even through Zoom.

Word of the Day
en·sue / inˈso͞o, enˈso͞o / verb = happen or occur afterward or as a result.  Example:  "Clawdia wants to be loved, so petting should ensue with every encounter with friends."
Uninstall 2020?

We could give it a try, but I imagine most people just want to move on to something better.  We don't want to live through this period again.

More TED Talks

I have shared the idea of TED Talks by Noah and Abraham, as suggested by Joanna Harader.  Here are two of her other imagined talks.  What do you think Esther would say to us?  Or Balaam with his donkey?  Here are the titles and the gist of what they might tell us.

Balaam and His Ass, a 1626 painting by Rembrandt
Balaam (Numbers 22:21-35)
Don’t Beat Your Donkey
If someone trustworthy is trying to prevent you from doing something, maybe you should listen to them instead of pitching a ridiculous fit.
Esther Denouncing Haman, an 1888 painting by Ernest Normand
Esther (Esther 4:14)
Who Knows?  Perhaps You Have Been Put in Your Position for Such a Time as This
Which stinks for you because this is a terrible time and why should God make you be someone who has to deal with all of this mess?

  1. The cat mask is fun. We just bought a few masks, but they are boring in comparison.
