It's the cat in the hat, here to teach some tricks, make a mess, and leave like a shadow. So a typical ninja.

Happy #DrSeussDay! I finally got around to making some more Seussavengers mashup parodies! Say hello to Twin One and Twin Two! I was originally going to mash Wanda and Pietro with Sally and Conrad (the kids from Cat in the Hat) but those characters didn't have as noticeable a presence. Also once I connected the Cosmic Cube to the crate the Things come from it all clicked! More Seussavengers to come! Stay tuned! #DrSeuss #ThingOneandThingTwo #CatInTheHat #DrSeussBirthday #Marvel #Avengers #Wanda #ScarletWitch #Quicksilver #Seussavengers #MashUp #Parody #MCU #illustration #illustrator #art #artist #fanart #artwork https://www.instagram.com/p/CpToSXdDc9G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Santa Rosa Shih Tzu Puppy believe in giving back to the community. Today, we participated in "National Read Across America" at Harper's school, Harrison Elementary, in Prince George County. It was my honor to read The Giving Tree to Mrs.Kunkel's 1st Grade Class. Afterward each child was given a gift of an Apple to either enjoy or to give to someone else.🍎 I taught for several decades and I am so proud that parents trusted me with the education of their children and I am equally proud that our Santa Rosa Shih Tzu Puppy Families trust us with caring for their puppy or in some cases, puppies, plural. I love the Shih Tzu breed and am so happy that we can assist in adding these little bundles of love to families all up and down the East Coast. 🐾😊 Santa Rosa Shih Tzu Puppy™️🐾 where growing healthy, well socialized Puppies is what we do.🐾 Next Litter expected soon!🐾 Wiggle, Waggle🐾 Puppy Love, Cynthia & Christopher @Santarosashihtzupuppy_beefarm ™️🐾 Note: Each year, National Read Across America Day is celebrated on March 2nd, the birthday of Dr. Seuss.

UNCLE SAM-I-AM: Happy B-Day Dr. Seuss!

Theodor Seuss Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, born #OTD, 1904.

Geisel's "Private Snafu" in "RUMORS", WW2 training film, NARA ID 35828. NARA Gif here.

From WW2 malaria awareness campaign, illustrated by Theodor Geisel, National Archives at Atlanta, NARA ID 784001.

WW2 War Bonds poster by Theodor Geisel, NARA ID 515479.

Many WW2 soldiers were young, newly-enlisted men with minimal formal education. To both impart info and improve morale, the Army Motion Picture Unit – headed by Hollywood director Frank Capra – created nearly two dozen "Private Snafu" training films that featured a bumbling new recruit who routinely breaks rules (SNAFU = Situation Normal All Fouled Up). Many "Private Snafu" shorts were written by Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel, voiced by Mel Blanc (infamous voice of Bugs Bunny), directed by animation legends Chuck Jones and Friz Freleng, and produced by Warner Bros. Studios.

RUMORS Military Training Film

Dr. Seuss's unique and imaginative style is evident in this "Rumors" training film. Pvt. Snafu chats with another soldier in the bathroom about "nice bombing weather."

It was a bright sunny day, air fresh and clean Not a rumor was stirring, except... in the latrine!

The rumor spreads rapidly, taking the form of hot air.

The hot air is blowing. A rumor is flowing!

The hot air fills giant balloons that then go through the "rumor mill" and become animated flying sausages that swarm the training camp, leading to the base shutdown/quarantine for "RUMOR-ITIS."

Balloon juice - it's phony, but it makes nice baloney! That's right. Exaggerate it. Stretch it. Multiply it. Now shoot off your face, And baloney is flying all over the place!

Even worse, Private Snafu ends up straitjacketed in a psych ward's padded cell #13, where he is tormented by Napoleon Baloney (Bolognaparte?). Lesson learned...
