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.

The Mind of the Beholder

Dr. Toni Grant, the pioneering Los Angeles radio psychologist for a number of years, once said about watching pornographic video that for the first five minutes you don't want to do anything but have sex, and after five minutes you never want to have sex again. You'll notice that in the upper right hand corner of this blog there's a small advertisement. Presumably every time a visitor to this site clicks on one of those ads I get got some fractional amount of money. The ads are magically keyed to the content of my commentary. If I write about going on vacation, say, next day there will be an ad for Caribbean getaways. Having mentioned sex twice above, I hate to think what tomorrow's ad will be for.

I'm pleased to mention that Michael Levine has been publishing some of my more editorial cartoons in his e-mailed news digest, which goes out daily to several hundred thousand "movers and shakers." Subscription is free at www.lbnelert.com.

Once again I would you like to point out that young Jeremy seems to have the magical ability to grow or shrink in size and age from cartoon to cartoon, to say nothing of panel to panel. Place a ruler against the kid’s head on the left and notice the growth by the right. What is his mother feeding him?

Tsk tsk, prof, you should understand this one. It's called body language. In the first panel Jeremy is slouching. In the second he's straightened up.

John, my deepest apologies. At my advanced age it is difficult to see the constriction of the abdominal muscles on Jeremy’s tummy. A colleage of mine who owns a state-of-the-art SECM (Scanning ElectroChemical Microscope) blew up the image and assures me that Jeremy is no longer slouching.

Rats, went to the ads but no porn, only political cartoons (grin).
Jeremy is definitely going to give his mother a heart attack. Love the look of innocence on his face as he raises the hair on his poor mother's head. Another great Jeremy cartoon, John C.
