Ruh-oh

I think in cartoons sometimes. It helps me. For instance..this new thing about dogs being able to detect cancer. Such a horrible disease it is. There is nothing humorous about cancer. However, for some reason I have this image of the Jetsons' dog Astro discovering someone's cancer and saying "ruh-oh", which is exactly what he said when there was any sort of trouble. Of course, trouble for Astro usually meant something ridiculous like being hit by a meteorite. From what I've seen of the suffering caused by cancer, being hit by a meteorite may be preferable. I have so much admiration for the brave souls that have battled this disease (my mother was a cancer survivor). As for myself, I hope I will never deplete my stockpile of cartoons. I know I will need them to diffuse the fear.
