How’s the Facebook IPO working for you?

That's nothing. My internet startup lost that much the first week.

Unlike some New Yorker cartoonists (surprise!) and many more non-New Yorker cartoonists, including syndicated guys, I don’t buy gags. For better or for worse, I write all my own.

However, in this case a major computer company exec wanted to write about internet startups….before most of us knew anything about Silicon Valley. (at least half the country still didn’t have a computer then!) So I tweaked it a little, and who knew, it still makes a perfect point today.

Here’s how to buy this or any Business cartoon for powerpoint, advertising, newsletters, blogs, textbooks, etc.

I’ve been obsessing about the Tsarnaev bombers, and how very wrong the info was, apparently, all supplied by the Boston PD. Lots of questions.

Meanwhile, I have a good cartoon about First Dates up now at Psych Central, and one on how I forget things at Psychology Today.  New cartoon right here on Monday.

How to organize your night life.

Man tries to organize his life with tv guide and franklin planner

In case you wondered….men don’t use DayRunners. /sexist but could be funny

Yeah, I know this phone is a little old, but lots of businesses still use obsolete equipment. And you should see how I draw TVs- the older the better, yum.

When a good friend showed me her Franklin Planner, and explained how it worked, I almost fell in love. It would make me a better person! I don’t hear much about them anymore…are they still a must-have? She swears by it, but she also gets the latest iPhones, so…maybe she’s more of a follower? :) I’ve always been fascinated by them, regardless.

And I still read TV Guide every day, online.
