The Army Corps Of Engineers Has Released a 2023 Calendar Of Giant Cats Attacking Infrastructure

Back in November of 2021, the government passed the One Trillion Dollar Infrastructure bill. And it looks like it's not a moment too soon. Apparently giant cats are attacking Northwest United States. I mean, of course it's not real. But it is fun.

According to Good News Network "The new 2023 calendar highlighting the achievements of the US Army Corps of Engineers features giant cats superimposed in photos of their engineering successes." More than anything, it's really just cats being cats. Attacking things, lounging around, chewing. Cat stuff. And best of all, they're giving away the calendar for free.

The actual calendar can be downloaded and printed here. Because the Army Corps is a Government Agency, the calendar is in public domain and totally free to download and print. But one note, don't be impatient. Once you click on the link to view the calendar it will take about 2 minutes even on a fast connection.

I'm wondering where in the Infrastructure Bill they snuck in "Giant Cat Calendar". It seems to be an ongoing theme of Government agencies showing a lighter side. Last weekend when "Florida Woman Tries To Bring ‘Emotional Support Boa Constrictor’ Onto Plane In Tampa" happened, we realized that the TSA has an Instagram page that consists of mostly "dad jokes".

TSA Reveals The 10 Weirdest Finds At Airports In 2022

I love watching the TV shows about TSA and seeing all the weird things they find. Border Security and To Catch a Smuggler are my two favorites. I did just see a new show on Hulu called Inside Airport Lost & Found that I'm sure will be interesting as well. I'm always amazed at what people think they can get away with.

I had an interesting experience myself with TSA the other day at the Tucson Airport. My parents got me a collapsible popcorn popper with bags of popcorn for Christmas. I put it in my carry-on and when it went through the scanner, it was flagged. It's happened before when I've forgotten water bottles and they just throw them out. But this time I was pulled aside, and they screened it for explosives. It was wild. Thankfully it was a non-issue, but it makes me wonder if someone tried something nefarious with a similar item.

On the TSA's list of confiscated items in 2022, it's a lot of what you would expect. There's guns, drugs and grenades that were found at different airports across the country, but there were also some very strange items found as well.
