Boomer’s Sunday

It’s time once again, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, for Boomer’s Sunday, where I sort through the weekly offering of ‘toons and pick the best. Toons are provided by Boomer and AW1 Scott, with many others contributing.
Disclaimer: These toons are meant to amuse, entertain and inform, pretty much in that order. While I cull what I can, they are not specifically fact-checked, so expect a certain amount of artistic license.

Zero points for guessing the winner.

Non-issue around here.

Absent: 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback 😉

This is just sad.

Yes. Yes you are.

Not too old, just never saw the point. If you’re in a fair fight your tactics suck.

Thanks, Jim

  1. not sure which was funnier– the elephant scrogging the donkey or the renamed dwarves lmao

    1. I’m workin’ on it, I’m workin’ on it.
      But still gotta pay the mortgage, buy groceries, and drive to work.

    2. Ammo accumulation has benchmarks of success measured as a function of how a count is increasingly achieved, in order ascending:
      -hand-count
      -boxes
      -can(s)
      -cans and buckets <– I know a guy…
      -cubic yard(s) <–who’s too close to this.
      -tonnage

      Did you know two cases (500 rounds) of 2 3/4″ shotshells will fit in a Homer bucket with enough room for some other loose stuff you have no idea from whence it came, along with a little desiccant that you can purchase a ‘gallon’ (7 lbs) of off of amazon?

      One of these days I’ll have enough, sure as shit ain’t today and tomorrow isn’t looking good either!

  2. The bacon. I took an informal vote of my family, and I’m on my way to the store to get some of each. Okay, a lot of each for this week’s menu.

    Bacon laid in a basket weave instead of bread to go with the plethora of tomatoes from the garden.

    Bacon laid realclose so they cook together to form a bacon-tortilla for Ceasar chicken, Club, Buffalo Chicken, Avocado Cheddar and every-other-type of “wraps”.

    Bacon – thick cut – sprinkled with brown sugar and baked into Bacon Candy. For crumbles for hot fudge sundaes and Bacon-Maple-Pecan cookies.

    Bacon wrapped pineapple spears (sprinkled with Tajin) to go with the bacon wrapped shrimp on the grill. And the bacon wrapped pork chops on the grill.

    Open to recipe suggestions…

    1. OAM, add a touch (or more, depending on your taste) of cayenne or crushed red pepper to the bacon candy

    2. A jalapeno hollowed out, filled with cream cheese, wrapped in bacon, and grilled.
      We call them jalapeno poppers.

    3. Remembered another –
      Potato salad with dill and bacon and chives.

      Given the forecast, I think this one is happening for sure this week.

  3. Real sign I saw at our local Cracker Barrel. Things that make you say “Hmmmmmm”

  4. We have been an absent liege, so in order to keep you rabble in our stead our benevolent-self will cast a tasty morsel of a meme at your feet and thou shalt enjoy… or else:

      1. A Royal threadjack? I believe that’s a TAH first.

        Must foment a revolution against this tyranny.

  5. “Study Shows Kids Who Are Homeschooled Could Miss Out On Opportunity To Be A Gay Communist”

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  6. Green Beans and Bacon
    You’ll need:
    2 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
    Kosher salt
    1/2 pound bacon, roughly chopped
    1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
    Juice of 1/2 lemon
    Freshly ground pepper
    You’ll do:

    1. Toss green beans into boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the beans and shock in a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Pat dry.
    2. Cook bacon until crisp. Drain. Leave 2 tablespoons bacon fat in the pan. Add the onion and saute until soft and translucent. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and saute for about a minute. Add the green green beans and the pecans and cook until heated through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Return the bacon to the pan, add lemon juice and toss. Season with salt and pepper.
    1. AW1Ed-this is sorta my Thanksgiving staple everyone hates on-Green Bean Casserole. For that I’ll the red pepper flakes, onions and pecans, substitute those fried onion things, add cream of mushroom soup and Worcestershire and bake it. Yes, bacon in that casserole thing means everyone gobbles it up and not just on Turkey day.

      1. Tried to avoid the whole casserole thing here- childhood trauma.*grin*

        The trick is to not overcook the green beans- al dente all the way.

        Serve with boiled new potatoes- two sides at once.

        1. And I was thinking of your recipe with some fried, quartered potatoes…two sides, one pan! Potatoes fried in the bacon fat, of course.

  7. I have to give Pedo Joe credit, it didn’t seem possible that he could find a dumber spokesjerk than Wacky Psaki, but he did it!!
