Friday Funnies

Can’t explain it, but for some reason I had a dream about watching this cartoon last night. I’ve always been a big Goofy fan, and I still drink water from the Goofy mug I bought nearly 20 years ago. So on this cold, wintry day in DC, Let’s all spend a few minutes laughing at […]

Can’t complain about anything really. But it’s a new basketball season, and with it comes the holiday […]
