Something Fishy for Friday

If this strip were in color the dead guy would be wearing a red shirt

and he would be assigned to the Security Detail. As anyone knows

who watched the original series, if there were to be a death

 before the opening credits the victim was usually a security officer.

Nicknamed "red shirts" they never lasted more 

than a few minutes, if that long, The running joke was if there was a

 red shirted security officer in the opening sequence that

actor must have pissed off Gene Roddenberry.

Turnabout is Fair Play!

As anyone knows, who knows me, I do not like to hunt.

For survival is one thing, for sport is another.

Unfortunately, My wife and I have made it a habit of living in states

 whose inhabitants not only love hunting of any sort

 but, cock fighting, dog fighting, and other forms 

of fighting as well. These activities are looked at as a great family outing!

 I am surrounded by the 'Good Old Boy" mentality, where the

 measure of one's manhood is reflected by

 the lives you take and the trophy heads hanging on the wall.

Want to be a real sportsman? Go into it

with the same weapons that the object of your hunt uses.

Oh wait a minute, they have no weapons!

They're unarmed and helpless! Silly me!

Sometimes my cartoons reflect my beliefs.

Sometimes they are simply for the punchline.

This one kind of goes for both.

Tender moments

I have been told that sometimes my cartoons border on the tasteless

 and that some are inappropriate for children.

 They especially do not care for this particular cartoon.

 All I can say is...Picky, picky, picky!

I do not draw for children! I draw for me!

Besides, how can this be inappropriate?

Because it deals with eating children?

Ask yourself that same question when you are munching

 that tasty piece of tender veal! 

Point of view my friends!



An Eye Opener

Today I had an experience that surprised me

 and I would like to share it with all of you.

I was searching for a bit of information regarding

 cartoon characters from the Golden Age.

I Googled and waited for the avalanche of information about old time cartoon characters

 most of which I had not read or even heard of.

Imagine my shock when up popped such characters

as Daffy Duck, Bugs Bunny, Archie, and the list of information goes on!

Are they crazy???

Daffy?? Bugs? The Roadrunner and Coyote, Betty and Veronica, Archie! Golden Age???

As I said before, the list goes on, and so would I if it were not so depressing!!

One thing is obvious! Google has a lot of incorrect information!

How do I know? Because these are cartoon characters

 that  I  grew up with and love!

Before you youngsters start sending me emails

or comments that I am not a kid anymore and that Google is right, you

 might want to check for yourself because,

 included in this list of characters were; The Smurfs, Captain Caveman,  He-Man, 

also, C3PO and R2D2,

SEE?? SEE?? 

I hereby demand that Google be known from this point on as,

"The Cyberspace Source of Misinformation"!

Some People Just Have No Shame!

 It seems that everyone wants to keep up with the Joneses.

Even if it is at a snail's pace!

I know it was a lousy punch line!

Someone oughtta slug me!

An Historical Retrospect

Once again, a little known historical

 fact is brought to light!

Another Rerun

Again I/we, am/are experiencing computer poopie!

For the moment I am using my wife's computer to post this.

I will be back as soon as possible.

Thanks for your patience.
