Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for March 29, 2010

Yeah, I suppose so - as long as you count the Board of Directors and the large investors, all of whom wallow in the same slop and feed at the same trough - technically speaking of course.

Can we cue the giant monkey to scale the tower now? Please?

Glass half full? Careful, you’ll poke somebody’s eye out. God, I just sounded like my mom….

Yeah, instead of “good” and “bad,” they have “bad” and “worse” sitting on their shoulders, guiding their consciences.

I believe it’s the demon on the shoulder that’s talking, if I follow that balloon correctly. Wiley?

The Screwpublic Letters? (C. S. Lewis joke)

The last person to ask about it was pummelled unconscience… [sic]

This cartoon also applies to the GOP, of course.

gigundo, bigger than gigantic….hmmmm.i likes it, Wiley. technically speaking was he pushed or did he fall? conscience my patooty.

No cognitive dissonance here.

When amoral gives way to counter-moral. That’s the corporate financial sector, all right.

“But, actually, there is no conscience as such.”

sandrino, it applies to ALL organizations that have gotten too big for their britches… up to and including the GOP, the Demos (short for Demolitionists), and Big Labor. We get enamored of BIG… maybe it has to do with Manifest Destiny…

Hope none of you have looked at exactly how your 401K is invested.

I just had a picture of Jiminy Cricket with little devil horns, and his umbrella ending in a trident flash through my head. …and he wasn’t singing when you wish upon a star

LOL! Good one, Wiley!

A poll puts CEOs at a lower level of public esteem than lawyers. Looks like we’ll have to rewrite a lot of jokes.

A guy in a bar yells “ALL CEO’s ARE IDIOTS! ”

Another guy at the end of the bar responds “Hey, I take offense to that!”

First guy replies “Sorry, are you a CEO?”

Second guys says “No, I’m an idiot!”

yeah, vexatron, when i think of a conscious, Jiminy Cricket always came to mind. in the other comics, isn’t the angel the conscious, and the devil is…?

What do you call a thousand CEO’s at the bottom of the East River?

A start.

Why don’t sharks eat CEO’s?

Professional courtesy.

Why are CEO’s like sperm cells?

Either has a one-in-a-million chance of someday becoming a human being.

Twin men have each twin demons on their shoulders!

Dick Cheney loaning his out?

Radio Tom, I agree with you except for the Big Labor part. There is no big labor anymore. The number of people willing to stand united against the winds of change is falling every year. Since Reagan started breaking up the unions in the eighties, wages have stagnated and even gone down ever since, and not just for union people. While there were unions, employers had to offer a decent wage, or they would lose an employee to the better paying union jobs. With out union wages to have to compete with, they don’t have to pay anybody much of anything. Be careful what you wish for, people..…

Good one mancocapac!
