Thomas Kinkade Village

Here in Shelbyville TN, there is a very slight chance that we will receive snow for the holidays. However, my Thomas Kinkade village is having a white Christmas!

Merry Christmas

The Home Stretch

You're in the home stretch kids. You have been good all year. Parents and you know who are making their final list......SO DON'T BLOW IT NOW!!!!

The things we have to do as a parent for a grade.

I have a cartoon in the the back burner where a kid comes home form school and the parent says: "How much homework do I have to do tonight?" This being said teachers also come up with special assignments for parents to ponder! Her is one where we, we meaning me, had to make a robot out of recyclable material. I hope I get an "A"!

Family Homework....Disguise the Turkey

Fast Pass

A few years ago the family went to Disney World during the busiest time of the year: Christmas. The lines were murder and the Fast Pass was like the amusement park Holy Grail!

Just A Quick sketch Of The Under Dog

On second thought, I guess Nader is the real under dog!

Happy Halloween

Here is a cartoon that is very near and dear to my heart. This was the first cartoon I ever published. This clever little color cartoon was used in the Sept/Oct 2006 issue of Children's Ministry Magazine. Enjoy and have a safe and happy Halloween!

The Power of the Net

I have had people and organizations from virtually all over the world use my cartoon. Because of the www, I have gotten exposure for my cartoons globally. Just today I received an email from a church in Gloucester Great Britain who wanted to use Faith KARtoons on their site. Where is Gloucester???? Lets go see! It's cool to get email across the pond and throughout the world.

Taxes

Not cartoon related but here is an interesting tax proposal chart for each candidate. Based on this chart, ask yourself two questions.

• Do you believe in a Socialist society?
• Who creates jobs?

Cartoon in the Sep. 19th issue of Medical Economics

Congress Head in the Sand

On Oct. 4th there was a letter to the Editor of the Rocky Mountain News that goes well with the following cartoon. Check it out here.

I sign up dead people!

You got to hand it to the geniuses at Acorn: registering dead people, under age kids, Mickey Mouse and alive people multiple times. Our tax dollars hard a work to corrupt the voting process.

Give me a break!

Severance Package

Squirrel Cartoons For What ails ya!

With all the problems from Wall Street to gas prices, for me Squirrel gags just make it seem everything is right in the world!

Paul Newman Bart & Homer Spoof

It sadden me to hear about the passing of a Hollywood icon: Paul Newman. I know he was in a number of great movies over the span of his career. However, one of the most memorable film for me is "Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid". Who can forget the Ledge scene! A few years back, "The Simpsons" created a spoof of the this scene. A classic cartoon parody. RIP Paul.

The Grand Canyon

Couldn't you hear a kid echo this through the grand canyon?

Cartoons in Medical Economics

Here are a couple of cartoons recently purchased by Medical Economics.

I can imagine WebMD drives some doctors nuts! A patient comes in the office, and they have already diagnosed their illness. On the other hand, this tool may keep more doctors on their toes.

There is no giving 110% here. ME usually sends a copy of the magazine when published. I will let everyone know what issue.

You know little girls everywhere are doing it!

Football Cartoons

It's that time again. The Football season is upon us. Here are some football cartoons & illustration from season present and past.

Bag Surcharge

Obama Hood

Political Friendship on the Campaign Trail

Ever wonder how many times a week a politician hears, from an advisor, the phrase “I think it would be in your best interest to isolate yourself from….” With the presidential candidates, this notion seems more prevalent as the election draws near.
First, due to weeks of negative press we have Senator Obama distancing himself from the reverend Jeremiah Wright. After being a mentor, spiritual advisor and having a long term relationship spanning decades, the Senator from the state of Illinois discards the reverend like a new off-shore drilling proposal.
Then recently there was the Senator McCain and Phil Gramm fiasco. Mr. Gramm called the American people a bunch of whiners and indicated the nation was in a mental recession. The proof is on youtube.com. So after a lengthy friendship and even having the former Senator hold the position of Economics advisor in the McCain camp, Gramm is dropped like a bipartisan global warming bill.
We often see how loosely the term friendship is thrown around in Washington and on the campaign trail. And is anyone actually buying the new found friendship of Barack and Hillary. Just weeks earlier the two were in an all out war for the Democratic nomination, but now are best buds, comrades, and like two peas in a pod. No agenda here…right?
Remember back in the first grade on the playground when there was an argument between two friends. One would say to another “If you don’t do what I say then you’re not my friend anymore!” Isn’t this about the depth of some political friendships today? The kids on the playground usually had their differences resolved and friendship intact, before the teacher yelled at the class to line up and go back to the classroom. I’m afraid this is not always the case on the political playground. But then again, when you’re seven, the agenda isn’t as clear!

The Fuel Crisis Is Solved!

To Drill Or Not To Drill?

To drill or not to drill? I guess that is the question. Should Congress end the quarter century ban on off-shore drilling? Is it time to start relying more on domestic oil sources? How high do fuel prices really need to soar? As in most political dilemmas, the old catch 22 is at play.
