Rabies (1976)

Rabies (1976) December 10, 1976 Today's Golden Oldie is from December 1976. Thirty Five years ago!! In 1976 there was a rabies scare in Jerusalem. Sad to say I was unable to resist going for a joke, using Doobie, Mr. Shuldig's dog, shown misreading the story in the Jerusalem Post. -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

What the ?

What the ? In the digital world in which we all are now forced to live, the old rule "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" is no longer honored. Your thoughts? -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

Good News Bad News (1996)

Good News Bad News (1996) December 02, 1996 Today's Golden Oldie is from December 1996. Fifteen years ago this month. I've always had two weaknesses. One is a love of "Good News, Bad News" jokes and the other is a compulsion to go for a laugh when the situation seems frightening. This King Solomon cartoon about a threat from Syria is an example of both. -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

Have a Happy ...

Have a Happy Hannuka, Chanukah, Chanukkah . . . however you spell it, it stands for our eight-day "Festival of Lights". And it begins tomorrow night! Have a Happy!! Hag Sameah!

TRUE XMAS

Pass it On! Tonight's the "second candle" and we'll be with grandchildren. The plan is to pass on our civilization ( cleverly hidden in "gold foil"-wrapped chocolate Hanukkah coins). Hag Sameah! Happy Holiday -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

20th Century Farewell (1999)

20th Century Farewell (1999) November 28, 1999 Today's Golden Oldie is a Hanukkah cartoon from December 1999. A Farewell to the 20th century. Those of you who get freaky about when the 21st century actually began, please control yourselves, relax, and have a Happy Hanukkah! -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

Segregated Buses?!

Segregated Buses?! The latest furor in Israel is about demands by "Haredim"(falsely identified as "ültra Orthodox"). What they now want is buses segregated by sex. i.e. women to the back of the bus. So I did this cartoon suggesting that they wear blindfolds. Funny, no? "No" says the LSW (Long Suffering Wife). She says it's been done. She says that some Haredi men have been spotted wearing veils!! I pooh-poohed the notion, but did a google image search, just to check. Turns out she was right. Men in Veils? -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

Merry Christmas Cartoons - you`ll love them!!

Christmas Cartoons – Santa Claus Posted: 13 Dec 2011 05:00 AM PST Santa Claus. Fat guy, brings you toys, right? For the most part, especially when you're a kid, thats about all you ned to know. But when you really start digging into Santa, and Santa related stuff, you quickly realize that there's an awful lot of great material for a cartoonist to play with. So, with the holidays approaching, I thought I take a moment and share a stocking full of my favorite Santa Claus cartoons: Ok, Christmas is a stressful time for everyone, but imagine the pressure that Santa is under. Toy productions, elf management, all the travel... I wouldn't be surprised a bit if he's less than jolly come December. This is a take on the old "go to your happy place" thing, and now that I look at it maybe "jolly" would have worked better. Oh well. I'm glad he's getting help. You know, in this age of social media, Santa should have a really easy time keeping his nice and naughty lists in order. If he's smart he's taking advantage of any number of APIs, setting up some sort of algorithm, and kicking back and relaxing while we all fess up online. Easy peasy. This is probably pretty odd to work well in any of my standard markets. In fact, when you think about it a little Ionger, it gets creepy fast. Honestly I didn't intend anything other than a little holiday entrepreneurship, but, um... ewwwww. Ok, moving on. I'd love to think that Santa Claus would be immune to thoughts of marketing or branding, but it's fairly obvious that Christmas is nothing if not commercial, so I guess it make sense that he would worry about his image. But, come on, 'Ho-ho-ho' is a true classic. You don't want to mess with that. Remember New Coke? Ok, that does it for now. Feel free to check out all of my Santa Claus cartoons, and happy holidays everyone!
