Looking for a cartoonist to work with me

I think I have some great ideas for cartoons but can't draw at all.

Looking for someone who has great technique for expressing situations in comic format and who might value a collaborative effort.

Solumbra Medical Devices

In preparation for a SCUBA diving trip to Indonesia, I bought myself a big staw hat.... quite a nice one with a nice shape to it, as straw hats go.

This is not just any hat. This is a medical device! Part of a line of "30+ SPF Sun Protective Clothing.

No wonder it costs $57.95 plus tax.

You may have noticed it's been awhile since I last posted here.

It took Solumbra to shake me from my almost year long hybernation....

You see, when I buy something, I enjoy reading about my purchase to find out how smart I am to have picked what it is that I picked.

This hat has a label that touts this hat's protective ability versus other things I always thought gave me total sun protection... like a polo shirt for example. Turns out this hat is 4x better.

Anyway, all was well until I read the following under the Headline CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND USE.

Let me quote here, " Solubra clothing should protect you from acute sun-induced skin damage, but it cannot reverse the damage already done to your skin from overexposure."

You just can't make this shit up!!

Are their lawyers really worried that someone thinks they are buying a "magic" hat.

Lady Bug, Lady Bug, Fly away home

This morning my soon to be 4 year old daughter proudly brought me some examples of her art work. ..... a page filled with Lady Bugs. I was quite impressed and told her so.

" Katy" I said, "That is wonderful work. I would have expected it from a six year old but not a girl your age."

Katy looked at me proudly as my wife looked up and pointed to herself indicating that she, not Katy, did the drawings.

Somehow, she missed the humor and I decided post rather than laugh.

Thank Heaven for little girls

Thank heaven for little girls for little girls get bigger every day!
Thank heaven for little girls they grow up in the most delightful way!
Those little eyes so helpless and appealing one day will flash and send you crashin'
thru the ceilin'
Thank heaven for little girls thank heaven for them all, no
matter where no matter who
for without them, what would little boys do?
Thank heaven... thank heaven...Thank heaven for little girls!

His heavy French accent, his melodic voice and his charm made Maurice Chevalier the prototype of the galant French monsieur in the American cinema of the thirties.

Harsh Tactics?

David Sheffer, a senior State Department human rights official in the Clinton
administration who teaches law at George Washington University, said the
procedure of shackling prisoners to the floor in a state of undress while
playing loud music - the Guantánamo sources said it included the bands Limp
Bizkit and Rage Against the Machine, and the rapper Eminem - and lights clearly
constituted torture. "I don't think there's any question that treatment of that
character satisfies the severe pain and suffering requirement, be it physical or
mental, that is provided for in the Convention Against Torture,'' Mr. Sheffer
said.
Kill the lights and many teens would consider this a good date.

Apple vs. Microsoft

I know feelings run deep here but I had no idea how deep.

I just received an e-mail from one of my friends in the Apple Camp passing along two not very flattering clips of Steve Ballmer addressing the Microsoft troops.

But the way they then edited them together into a fantasy IPOD ad is wonderful to behold.

Enjoy all three.....
