Cartoon of a boy scolding his talented dog. The caption reads, “Skippy! Bad dog! There is no hacking in this house!”
I’ve come to the conclusion a dog’s main talent is hacking. My dog is a good hacker. She isn’t a computer hacker, but she is a very vocal hacker nonetheless.
When I heard Illustration Friday’s word was “talent, I thought of my talented dog.
Cartoon of two girls walking away from a snowman. One says, “I can’t believe he’s giving me the cold shoulder!”
Those snowmen can be stuck-up, or can they? Maybe they’re a little introverted. Come on, girls! Give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he’s imagining a day on the beach, or perhaps he’s trying to figure out how to survive spring. At any rate, you won’t realize how much you miss him until he’s gone in March.
Cartoon of of two children staring at a snowman. One says, “One month, you’re king of the mountain. The next month, you’re a puddle.”
Winter is quickly fading away around here. All the snow people have met a disastrous end thanks to some warm temps and little reinforcing snow. Seasons remind us that change is around the corner no matter how young or old you are.
It also reminds us there are cycles in life. If you don’t like the way things are going, wait and they’ll change. On the other hand, if you’re king of the mountain, don’t get too comfortable up there. Things are bound to change sooner or later!
Cartoon of a man yelling from a room. He says, “I can’t get the laptop to work with the projector. Get Timmy in the preschool class!”
Yes, I’ve been there. When in doubt, find a kid that’s grown up with the technology. They may be precocious, but they sure know their stuff!
I drew this cartoon for K! Magazine.
Cartoon of a boy yelling, “Math, reading, writing…all this homework is ruining my childhood!”
I imagine I’ll be yelling something similar when I do my income taxes. Why can’t we all just leave our work, go out and play? Because it’s February, that’s why. Have you seen how cold it is out there? Might as well buckle down and get the work done!
