June 9, 2016 & The New Yorker

6-9-16 timberlake

One would think that Mr. Timberlake could command more than six million. His agent must take–what–a quarter pound of that?

On another note…I’ve been doubling down on my New Yorker cartoon submissions. Since that is my cartooning goal I’m putting more time into thinking up and creating drawings I think will have a chance of acceptance. That means less whiteouts.

Of course when their rejections catch up with the pace of my submissions (about a four month lag time) you’ll see a lot more of those cartoons here. 😉

2-16-16 grammys

I did not watch the Grammys last night, just listened a bit as the wife and daughter did. It’s a yearly reminder of how little interest I have in popular music today. Awards shows bring out the worst in me, anyway…

Based on Silento’s transcendent bit of musical mastery, “Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)”.  (Confession: I had never actually heard the song–just little people quoting bits of the lyrics. To research this cartoon I listened to it in its entirety. I can never get those 3 minutes and 23 seconds back again.)

I’m not a Star Wars fanatic by any means but I know enough about that world to Force bad puns.

My tween daughter loves it when I use her slang. So of course I do it as much as possible. In this case, for the uneducated, BAE stands for “Before Anything Else” and is often used to refer to one’s significant other. Cheers…
