State of the Union


My favorite editorial cartoons are those that combine two current events.  Here I mixed Obama's triumphant State of the Union message last night with the image of the darling Haiti boy who was pulled from the rubble after a week. 

HAUNTING ME: Was it a mistake to use a 10 day old image? Have people forgotten? Do I watch way more 24 hr news than the average person and not everybody saw this boy?

Love your comments! Karyl

24 HR. News Monster



Hardest thing about doing current events cartoons is the events become dated right after you finish the drawing.  For instance: I had to change the titles on the "food" this AM. Haiti was always on the top - being the first story we will abandon.  The second food I had was JUICY BOOK O POLITICAL GOSSIP.  The third was LOVE-CHILD DNA. And the fourth was TIGER SPOTTED.  I better post this before another news story along.
Thanks for your comments!

Final PLAN B ... for now


Video: See Beany and her young stud muffin Jack skate.

Yes fiends, this is the last installment of PLAN B... for now!
What's going to happen with Beany and her young crush?
Well there's lot's more to that story!
But as of Friday I'm going to begin posting (on GoComics.com)  Beany's
PLAN B backstory because there are so many new PLAN B subscribers.
Let me know if you want off the Email list - no hard feelings.

Thank you for your many comments and Emails of encouragment. ( MORE)
Now - in answer to the questions Is Jack, Jack? And is Beany me?
Well, yes and no. Jack and I DID meet at a roller skating rink and yes,
that's us skating in the video. Another fiftish woman skater friend said
that "the spinning guy," kept watching me.  I happened to be wearing
a little plaid skating skirt. I later found out a "Catholic schoolgirl on skates,"
was Jack's greatest sexual fantasy. I decided he was too young, but still kept
watching him too, and eventually I got over it.
Stay tuned

Hi friends,
Thought I'd take another occasional crack at topical subjects, so here's the first one I've done in a year!
