This week's Cartoon Caption Contest




Barack Obama appeared on 'The Late Show with David Letterman' earlier last week, and delivered his second top ten list. Now is your chance to take your game to the next level and do a better job than the paid writers on the Late Show staff (just no strikes please).

Come up with a pointed caption for this cartoon and post it in the comments link here. Keep it clean (this is a family website) and keep it brief (brevity is the soul of wit). When you post, include your name and the name of the city where you live. If you wish to remain anonymous from others, simply email your caption idea to me at rob.tornoe@politicker.com. Your deadline is noon Friday.

We'll post the winner's name and caption here Saturday morning, along with several runner-ups. If you send us your name and address, we'll mail the winning writer a color print of the cartoon with the caption, signed by Rob Tornoe. Please allow at least 4 weeks for delivery.

If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to email me at rob.tornoe@politicker.com.

Good luck, and have fun! Place your caption suggestion here.

First sketch with my new toy



Just finished playing around with my new toy from work, my Wacom Cintiq. It's like a normal Wacom tablet, the only difference being you can actually draw on the screen!!!


I'm too lazy right now to go upstairs to grab my camera, so this is a picture of how it works. Once I get it all set up properly in my studio, I'll take a picture.
