A Song for the Season

Jingle Bell

(Sung to the Tune of “Jingle Bells”)

Jingle bell, jingle bell
Only one this year
Oh what a mess
The economy’s in
Trashing our good cheer

Jingle bell, jingle bell
We can’t afford a set
One little bell
Will have to tell
Our Christmas storyette

(Chorus)

Our trusted banker’s greed
To see his profits grow
Our loyal broker’s need
To make a lot of dough

Made us all feel rich
Until the bill came due
It really is a bitch
To see it wasn’t true

OH…

Jingle bell, jingle bell
Sing your little song
We all thought we had it made
But I guess we had it wrong

Merry Christmas All The Same!

I Really Should Be Drawing is in its New Home…

Yes, it is…

After a successful and arduous moving process (You have no idea how heavy all those old posts can be.) we have arrived here at our new home. We brought along most of the stuff left over after our big yard sale, which was not quite as successful as we had hoped. Nobody seems to want a used post. I guess they’re a little suspect, maybe like old shoes and mattresses, which smell funny and always have the potential of giving you a disease or something worse.

So, let the new posting begin!

Enjoy!

The Detroit Three

December 10th, 2008 No Comments   Posted in Cartoons

I was out for a drive the other day in my Toyota convertible when my thoughts turned to the Detroit automakers and their current woes. Businesses and corporations, like everything and everyone, get old and fat. (They don’t get bald, though, for some reason.) They slow down, get complacent, are resistant to change, and eventually people stop listening to their incessant mumbling and reminiscences of their glory days. Time for the old corporation home, perhaps.

They may survive for a while longer, of course, with our help. Here are some of my suggestions to help these old codgers get through another few years of productive life.
