I still haven't been out much. Just busy with a lot of work.

[pcottraux]

If you consider drawing cartoons work, then me too.

[tuliptree76]

Mine has been schoolwork.

[pcottraux]

Ewwww....I remember that stuff. Yuck.

[writer33]

Nice cartoon, pcottraux.

[DollyCali]

ok PC.. cute stuff again. Love the HS things. When I taught HS my students were never as creative in their classroom boredom... just love letters , graffiti etc

[tuliptree76]

I better get some sleep. Good night!

[pcottraux]

Goodnight, tulip. See you Friday I guess.

[pcottraux]

Thank you.

I always make it a point to inform people that the full archives of ALL the FReeptoons I've drawn are on my home page, down at the bottom.

[pcottraux]

You taught HS once? Oh dear. In further toons I will be lampooning teachers. But not to worry: I'm sure you were one of the cool teacher's I would have liked.

The evil teacher in my strip is actually more based on my 6th grade Middle School Teacher. I get chills up my spine just thinking about her.

[pcottraux]

Time to work on the next one, I guess. It never ends *sigh*. Good thing I enjoy doing it.

[Rocky]

Belafonte is a waste of time. If he were conservative, the press wouldn't waste any ink on him.

[pcottraux]

Nope, sure wouldn't. Although if he were conservative, he would make us look as ridiculous as he does the left, so maybe things are fine the way they are.

[Anselma]

Great caricatures of both Chavez and Belafonte! Enjoyed the toon very much. Also your rejoinder (inflated CD price ... ego ... forehead... LOL!!!!!!!)

We can add Old Harry to the short list of airhead Hollywood types who like to poop on the hard-working middle class- we "bourgeoisie".

I appreciate seeing the D'r cartoon evolution. Very interesting peek into the festering swamps of the Teenage Guy's mind. Harumph. (Like my mind wasn't festering in the Dark Ages ...) ;>)

[pcottraux]

Oh, yes, my mind was a festering swamp at that age, as well. In fact, I would still consider my mind to be a wetlands at least, if not a festering swamp.

I enjoyed giving Belafonte his comeuppance in the last panel. "That's the way they do it in Venezuela"...in other words, Hugo gets all the money as a dictator for everyone else's hard work. And ol' Harry gets wasted by the system he is defending. Of course he defends communism/dictators; he doesn't have to live under their rule.

[Irish_Thatcherite]

And this was a woman? Man, Ireland has slack rules about those kinds of things!

LOL!!

[DollyCali]

Finally catching up on some pings PC... I taught Jr/Sr Hi & college.. Think I was pretty well liked & I liked the teaching.. but did not like all the other el crappo associated with teaching..(school boards, parents trying to control classrooms, and many other things.)

I taught for about 10 years before I went into business..

thanks again for sharing your work with us!

[pcottraux]

You're welcome. These Dink cartoons will be going on for a long time...I drew a lot of them!

[Rca2000]

Oh, boy!! That "gym" looks about as comfortable and inviting as Auschwitz did!!(Good job)!!

And as for Belafonte, I remember his daughter crying on Oprah or something about people thinking she was a rich person, (and Oprah did not thnik SHE was rich either)and that she did NOT consider herself as a rich person(remember, in Demoncrats eyes only CONSERVATIVES are rich-- people like Soros and Streisand and Oprah and Belafonte, with their untold millions are just "average, struggling lost souls, out there".
