SANDY

 sandy, weather, hurricane, disaster, natural disaster, East Coast, america kirschen : Dry Bones cartoon.After spending the day watching the news coverage of Sandy, the superstorm, I sketched out this cartoon. The LSW (Long Suffering Wife) looked at it and said that nobody would recognize the cartoon reference to Sandy (Arf Arf) Little orphan Annie's dog. "Wrong!" I said, "and besides, I had fun drawing it."

Meanwhile we both hope that all of our East coast fans and friends are safe.

Election Trash Talk

 obama, ahmadinejad, iran, nukes, elections,media, kirschen : Dry Bones cartoon.The NY Times report:
U.S. Officials Say Iran Has Agreed to Nuclear Talks

WASHINGTON — "The United States and Iran have agreed in principle for the first time to one-on-one negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program, according to Obama administration officials, setting the stage for what could be a last-ditch diplomatic effort to avert a military strike on Iran.

Iranian officials have insisted that the talks wait until after the presidential election, a senior administration official said, telling their American counterparts that they want to know with whom they would be negotiating." -more

The denial as reported by the Daily Mail:

White House denies deal for one-on-one talks with Iran... but says U.S. is prepared to do so
"The White House has denied that it has scheduled one-on-one talks with Iran about its nuclear weapons programme, but it says it is willing to do so. The New York Times reported on Saturday that the United States and Iran had agreed in principal to meet after next month's election to find a diplomatic settlement to Tehran's pursuit of nuclear weapons.

But National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor later insisted no such meeting had been scheduled, though he said the White House was prepared to talk." -more

Kickstarting

 kickstarter, crowd funding, haggadah, passover, kirschen : Dry Bones cartoon.To mark the 40th anniversary of my Dry Bones cartoon I decided to launch a Dry Bones Haggadah project at Kickstarter. We officially launched on October 15th. Within a day and a half one hundred and one backers had provided more than the initial goal of $5,000 that we had requested. I had stayed up, glued to the computer screen watching the numbers go up. Bleary-eyed and excited, I suddenly understood something important. I didn't need a Rothschild to back my project. One hundred and one Rothschilds had used the Internet to find me and my project. The implications are fascinating,

Cuba, Missiles, America, Israel, (1978)

dry bones


October 20, 1978
Dry Bones cartoon: Kirschen, Double Standard, Cuba, missiles, Carter, Israel, Cold War, Russia, Soviet Union, USSR, Saudi Arabia, Eilat, Florida, Bombers
This month is the 50th anniversary of "the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962", a major event in the "Cold War". I drew today's cartoon in October of 1978, during a second but less remembered Cuban Missile crisis. Obviously, the cartoon still seems just as relevant today as it was then.
