Thursday is (sometimes) Rejection Day!
Well, I have only my own size 6 bee-hind to blame. I didn’t turn in a batch this week because I wrapped it up a little before my car came to bring me to the airport at 3:45am Tuesday morning, and the fax machine went on strike. “Change toner,” it glibly sneered at me from its LCD display.
(“Damn you, fax machine!”)
I finally found the toner (where I’d put it so it would be “easy to find,”) but by then it was too late, as the car had arrived. The machine needs to be fed one page at a time, or else it gets all constipated. I considered leaving it to fend for itself, but images of a paper blockage, a short circuit, and flames bursting… it was too much. I decided to save it all for next week. Now I have the weekend off! (Technically. I will probably still do more cartoons anyway.)
But here’s one cartoon (above) I sent in last week even though batch day was cancelled. Extra-credit, anyone? Inspired by you-know-who, and this article. There is some debate as to whether he actually said “perch” or “large mouth bass,” as in this transcript. Some say he lied. (The President? Lie?) There is also some debate as to whether people may have gone back and corrected “perch” to “large-mouth bass” in said transcript after he apparently took it back and said it was a bass. The matter is currently under investigation.
My cartoon features a perch, thank you!
