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 *).

What's the Matter With Kids Today?

My kids played terribly Friday, without focus, not the most unusual thing with 14-year old boys. Before today's game I made them stand silently while I led them in a few minutes of guided imagery. Darned if they didn't go out and play beautifully, totally focussed and totally disciplined. I can't whether or not it was the pre-game session that did the trick. What I am sure of is that these kids never experienced anything of the sort before. (Oh, and we won, beating Beverly Hills 6-5.)

good on you, John C. It is an excellent way to corral and help a young person concentrate. Great cartoon by the way!
