Hopefully, everyone knows who that is in the right hand side of the last panel, so I don’t have to tell anyone (it should be obvious…can anyone guess?).

And now for two Dinklemeyers tonight, the second one being the most emotional of them all:

Here, I have just introduced the talking pig, and wanted establish some of the rules around him (subtitle included there). He’s a guy who acts smart and intellectual, but is not nearly as smart as he thinks he is. I couldn’t myself explain why only Freddy could hear the pig talk, so I just decided that “that’s just how cartoons are.”

But now for the emotional part. That Dinklemeyer cartoon was drawn on September 10, 2001. The next day, I didn’t draw a usual Dinklemeyer, just this small tribute:

This drawing is a little crude, but in school that day, I drew it as I watched the events unfold on the classroom’s TV. It also marks the first time I signed one of the cartoons.

Ew, that's terrible.

I haven't been really good and sick in years. I know I'm long overdue. When it finally hits again, it's going to HIT.

Wow. I had no idea my cartoons had that much power.

I had no idea who that was, so I thought I'd read through the whole thread first before posting. I would have never guessed it was Jack Klugman.

Well, I did the best I could. Some are not as obvious as others. You do know who the guy on the left is, don't you?

Now that I look back, yeah, that looks just like Jack Klugman...my mind couldn't make the connection. (Dumb Blond Syndrome). I think that's Ren on the left, right?

BTW, I just got online tonight, what's all this about a Rush credibility thread?

Well, I wouldn't say it's dumb blonde, just that Jack Klugman is not a huge celebrity that's in the news a lot. A caricature of him is not going to be as recognizable as Al Sharpton, for random example.

Yes, that is Ren Hoek on the left. I grew up on Ren & Stimpy...explains a lot.

The Rush credibility thread is a vanity someone posted questioning whether Rush Limbaugh is losing credibility. I have sort of a joke that after every FReeptoon I post, someone posts a thread that sucks all my precious views ("precious" said sort of like Gollum from LOTR).

I wonder if I can get a hundred more views before the night's over?

It's like 0130 there in North Carolina. Is that where you're at? It's 2230 here on the left coast.

Yeah, that's my locale. And it's exactly 1:30. 2230...is that military time? 10:30? My Grandmother and Aunt live on the left coast.

Sorry, yeah, 2230 = 10:30pm. I get that military speak from hubby. Have fun in the singles thread. Hope you meet someone pretty and nice, if that's yer goal.
