Underneath the slide(s) for each entertaining delight that you discover, you will find a clickable link that lets you easily explore a more widespread collection of wonderments (verse, photos, wordplay, song-lyrics etc.) on the topic of your choice. 



b) Today's Offering (Nov 16, 2024):




Authors' Note: The Feed-At-The-Trough Law is a 'rule' of natural law, by which those routinely rewarded have boundless will to please those who feed them; in the political arena, it would normally account for the approval of almost any nominee, but in this case, even that line was crossed.

The detailed story of a flawed appointee for leadership of the US Department of Justice (DOJ), i.e. the Attorney General, is presented at OEDILF here, and at wikipedia
HERE.
