Hopefully, everyone knows who that is in the right hand side of the last panel, so I dont have to tell anyone (it should be obvious
can anyone guess?).
And now for two Dinklemeyers tonight, the second one being the most emotional of them all:
Here, I have just introduced the talking pig, and wanted establish some of the rules around him (subtitle included there). Hes a guy who acts smart and intellectual, but is not nearly as smart as he thinks he is. I couldnt myself explain why only Freddy could hear the pig talk, so I just decided that thats just how cartoons are.
But now for the emotional part. That Dinklemeyer cartoon was drawn on September 10, 2001. The next day, I didnt draw a usual Dinklemeyer, just this small tribute:
This drawing is a little crude, but in school that day, I drew it as I watched the events unfold on the classrooms TV. It also marks the first time I signed one of the cartoons.
Hey Victoria.
Hi there, how are you doing?
Not bad, not bad. I'm getting along.
How'zabout you?
I had a cold, but I'm getting better, thanks.
Ew, that's terrible.
I haven't been really good and sick in years. I know I'm long overdue. When it finally hits again, it's going to HIT.
I had no idea who that was, so I thought I'd read through the whole thread first before posting. I would have never guessed it was Jack Klugman.
BTW, I just got online tonight, what's all this about a Rush credibility thread?
Well, I wouldn't say it's dumb blonde, just that Jack Klugman is not a huge celebrity that's in the news a lot. A caricature of him is not going to be as recognizable as Al Sharpton, for random example.
Yes, that is Ren Hoek on the left. I grew up on Ren & Stimpy...explains a lot.
The Rush credibility thread is a vanity someone posted questioning whether Rush Limbaugh is losing credibility. I have sort of a joke that after every FReeptoon I post, someone posts a thread that sucks all my precious views ("precious" said sort of like Gollum from LOTR).
Archives, yes?
Where have all the ping people gone?
I wonder if I can get a hundred more views before the night's over?
Looks like my chances are not good.
I'm still here. you still up?
Oh, of course. I'm a late-night guy. RockinRight and I are chewing the fat on the singles thread.
Loved your cartoons!
It's like 0130 there in North Carolina. Is that where you're at? It's 2230 here on the left coast.
Thanks!
Yeah, that's my locale. And it's exactly 1:30. 2230...is that military time? 10:30? My Grandmother and Aunt live on the left coast.
Sorry, yeah, 2230 = 10:30pm. I get that military speak from hubby. Have fun in the singles thread. Hope you meet someone pretty and nice, if that's yer goal.
