Memorial Day isn’t until tomorrow, but a few of these posts definitely have a Memorial Day feel about them — and I’m not talking about posting pictures of Obama eating ice cream. Thanks to Caped Crusader for all his help. The ones you think are less funny or meaningful are

I haven’t been keeping track, but it’s entirely possible that this is the biggest and best illustrated edition I’ve ever published. Many thanks to Caped Crusader, Earl Aagaard, Wolf Howling, and EFK (you know who you are) for their stellar contributions to his post:

I’m starting to dig out from under the mountains of legal and domestic detritus that’s enveloped me of late, so I have a bit of time to write again. The only problem is that I don’t know what to write. Usually I latch onto what is, to me at least, a

Since I (thankfully) seem to be back in business, Caped Crusader feels comfortable again sending me visual gems. Here’s the latest batch:

I’m still going through my emails and finding fabulous treasures. Let’s so how many I can fit into this post: Revolutions always eat their own Assuming one survives a revolution, one of the most enjoyable spectacles is seeing the second generation of revolutionaries turn on the first. Just today, there are

This is my catch-up day, so prepare to be deluged. I’m happy to report that a large part of this deluge will be posters and cartoons addressing matters both mighty and silly. As always, while a get a handful of images from my other readers (Sadie, Wolf Howling, Earl, and others who

No, you’re not imagining it. Yes, I have been AWOL. The legal work has finally tapered off, but other things have filled the vacuum, taking up both my time and energy. Some of them are very nice things but, much as I love you all, I can’t share them here.

Caped Crusader sent me a very sweet email asking if he’d been overwhelming me with posters because he’d noticed I hadn’t published pictures from his last few emails. He’s right that I was overwhelmed, but it wasn’t he doing the overwhelming. I simply got so bogged down in the demands

Not a bad day, but a busy one. Legal work in the morning, followed immediately by taking my mother to an appointment, followed immediately by a lunch that I’ll tell you about, followed immediately by taking my son to the barber, which activity will be followed immediately by joining some
