Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons.... John Crowther's Cartoon Odyssey

I think of it as The Fool's Journey. I've been asked who the "fool" is. It's me, but in the classical sense of the court jester. Only the fool was allowed to tell the king of his follies. All cartoons are available as prints or originals, framed or unframed, through my website or e-mail. For mugs, t-shirts, and other products visit my gift shop at www.zazzle.com/jcrowtherart* (be sure to include the *).

A Little Workplace Humor IV


It occurs to me with something of a shock that perhaps the "middle" in middle class really means average, falling somewhere in between those who are actually good at what they do and those who are totally clueless. We've created a mass of middling capable people in corporate life, government, engineering, medicine, and the entertainment industry who really excel at only one thing, making their inept bosses think they're better at their jobs than they in fact are. That's mildly amusing when the worst damage they can do is greenlight the Hummer, mess up bridge construction, and start wars we shouldn't be fighting, but when they make dumb movies like Balls of Fury it's time to worry about the future of mankind.

We have one of those off-ramps, on-ramps on Hwy. 94. A real heart in mouth deal. Being a devout coward, I try to avoid it at rush hour. Makes for a very exciting (or something)five minutes trying to get into the correct lane for one's purpose.
