Ouch!! That's embarrassing. Don't tell anyone. I just didn't know...and made an assumption...and after all this time...
Thank you...hey, I didn't see you on the singles thread tonight.
I needed you to protect me from ozarkgirl.
Thanks. Did you see my last Toon? Chirac was the target. In case you didn't:

Does no-one feel the slightest twinge of guilt encouraging this?
Absolutely!
I'm honored.

Wonderful cartoon- and great style. Love your sharkie. And your MSM remark!
And yes, I think cartooning is indeed an art. I think it lies in a crevice between literature and classical art, because I view classical art- before the "modernists"- as being more articulate, more expositive and less introspective than the modernes. Oh, I know, I'll get a lot of flak on that remark.
In my view, 3 major changes made modern art, and in particular, abstract art, less communicative: the invention of the camera, the effective disappearance of the "patron", and Guttenburg's press.
And I'm not being elitist, here. Quite the opposite.
Great political cartooning is articulate and populist, I think. That's a powerful combo. Add to that the Net, and it's combustible.
Keep doin what yer doin, PCot- you have great talent.
Thanks a lot.
And I haven't forgotten about you, those ideas you sent me. I'm trying to work them into my schedule as we speak.
