Today is Portugal Day! Or as the Portuguese so pithily phrase it—Dia de Portugal, de Camões e das Comunidades Portuguesas. Just a heads-up in case you’re wondering about all the parades clogging your Main Streets and thoroughfares today. And hey, my mom is happy about it. 😊 🇵🇹

Overheard—Conductor on LIRR train: “Keep your Fred Flintstones off the seats. No bare feet. It’s morning time. Let’s aim for a little class.”
With The Late Show with Stephen Colbert wrapping up last night, and as a big fan, here's a Sally Forth strip from 2017 when the Forth family visited the Colberts - or at least their front lawn...
My Amélie action figures. Because sometimes you just need some freakin’ whimsy in your life or Lego set.
I hope this scooter blares the “Wonder Woman” TV theme every single time. Of course, that means the rider will be doing Mach 3 in about ten seconds.
About to see “Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope: Journal of the Wills: Chewy’s Day Out” on the big screen, because someone’s gotta support this movie.
