Yeah, there are fat cats, but not flat cats…..

There’s a simple reason I disbelieve 99.9% of all conspiracy theories.

About a dozen people knew who ‘Deep Throat’ was, and that story leaked less than 50 years after the fact.

No way millions of pilots, astronauts, map makers, etc could keep this a secret

Not flat? Is Columbus been seen anywhere lately?

At last – a fool proof answer to the flater earthers claims! :)

Makes sense.

Old joke.

But how do you know it’s not banana shaped?

I have never met anyone who claimed to be a flat earther. Or a banana earther for that matter. I suspect that some of them are just pulling our legs.

Maybe it’s the cat god who pushes the sun god daily across the sky only to knock him over the edge.

No more actual words have been spoken. Katie knocks everything off the edge.

Watching a large ship come over the horizon is absolute proof the earth is round.

There is math to go along with that but it causes a problem this time of year:

Pi R ^2 is false during the holidays. . .wait for it. . . . . Cornbread are square, pie are round.

Lots of truth to that.

The earth is not round, it’s spherical. (Nearly spherical.)

Ain’t it the truth… Ain’t it the truth…

Around 200 BC Eratosthenes calculated the Earth’s circumference. He was about 50 miles off. I think maybe he knew the earth was spherical.

Cats are still not believing this “gravity” thing. They will keep experimenting.

I just can’t understand the flat earthers. A flat earth has too many problems to be explained away, like the cat thing, whereas the Newtonian theory of gravity is simple as pie.

My cats don’t do that… in fact one of them will jump up on my nightstand which is covered with all kinds of stuff, and walk around when there is room for one of his feet, and not disturb a single thing!

But the strip did make me LOL!

If someone can show me a picture of the edge, we can talk, otherwise…(expletives deleted)

I lived in Dubuque for a few years in the 90s. I don’t miss it. I remember a billboard reminding people that epileptic seizures weren’t caused by demonic possession.

pondering: if the star of bethlehem rose in the east, and the wise guys followed the star from the orient, they did 20,000 or so miles in 24 hours. unless they took a short-cut under the flat earth.

Got that right!

I live in Dubuque!

Shoe’s not wrong.
