To be honest, it’s been a pretty depressing week. President Trump unveiled a tariff policy that baffled everyone except Wall Street investors, who hated it. Attacks on Tesla continued, and more federal judges put their thumbs on the scale on behalf of the Democratic Party. In one bright spot, the Democrats lost three out of four elections but declared victory anyway.
Rather than dwell on depressing news, and because this is the week of the penguins, I will repeat a joke that was told to me by a young woman many years ago:
A guy pulls into a gas station. The attendant pumps his gas and looks into the back seat of the car. He sees a penguin sitting there. The attendant comes around to the driver’s window and says, “Did you know you have a penguin in the back seat of your car?” The driver says No and turns around and looks. He sees the penguin and asks the attendant, “What do you think I should do with him?” The attendant says, “If I were you, I would take him to the zoo.” “Good idea,” the driver says, and drives away.
A couple days later the driver pulls into the same gas station. The attendant pumps his gas and looks in the back seat, and there is the penguin. The attendant comes around to the driver’s side and says, “Hey, that penguin is still in the back seat.” The driver says, “I know.” The attendant says, “I thought you were going to take him to the zoo.”
The driver says: “I did, and we had so much fun, today I’m taking him to the beach.”
With that, this week’s pictures:

Bacon memes? Star Wars? Star Trek? C’mon, guys!
