Happy Thanksgiving!

Yes, some Vikings are veg heads! Gotta hand it to my buddy Chris Browne (Hagar the Horrible) and his Thanksgiving post on FB. I suspect his banquet table was full of sweet potatoes, cranberries, mashers and pumpkin pie.

If we could only use snowgates to remove . . .

Political Cartoon event this Friday in SF!

I don’t even follow Australian politics, and this stuff is funny

Has Australian PM Julia Gillard been treated any differently by Pickering to the male and other female characters he’s drawn over the years? (click to enlarge)

In 30+ years of cartooning, I’ve never seen a politician, let alone a Prime Minster, react to cartoons and / or questions in such a way that he (or she) would resort to personal abuse and denigration of the satirist at a press conference. Julia Gillard lost it.

The Australian Prime Minister attacked cartoonist Larry Pickering at a media conference, not once but three times, labelling him, his cartoons and relevant revelations and questions about her dodgy past, a ‘misogynist’, ‘sexist’, ‘smear’ campaign. (He’s drawn a relatively few cartoons of Julia nude – but no private part showing). Commentators are now wondering, “Golly, Pickering hasn’t drawn male politicians like that, has he? He must be a misogynist sexist. The cartoons are offensive. He must be a woman hater.”

Really?

And to think Councilor Vernon Brown was upset about my cartoon of him in a swimsuit at Drake Springs Pool.

Guest toon of the day; David Phipps

Thought David’s toon really exhibited what was going on in SF right now. www.phippsville.com

Guest Toon of the Day • David Phipps

David sends me a weekly toon, I thought this one was appropriate since almost everyday I have to see one of these people at the interstate exit on my way to work.

I’m not sure if she died that night, but if she did, she went out in style.

Dan Piraro is one of my favorite cartoonists. Not only are his toons clever, he is a damn good artist and actor/comedian. Dan of course has a local connection, he is in a relationship with Chris Browne’s (Hagar the Horrible) stepdaughter.

His blog is always entertaining, this story about the Brooklyn Hospital is quite entertaining.

Bartcop pretty much sums up HB 1217 (H/T – Helga)

Guest cartoonist; Toothpaste for Dinner

I’ve seen Drew’s stuff before, but did some true trolling of his site today, and laughed my balls off.

Guest cartoonist; David C. Phipps

I met David at a cartoonist luncheon in Sioux Falls last year, he sends out a weekly toon, I found today’s LOL.
