This one goes out mostly to the legions of editorial cartoonists who have penned cartoons to infer that the continued existence of snow is an ironic sign that climate change is a hoax. People may have their quibbles with global warming and its dour prognosis, but pointing to snow as exhibit A in the discussion says more about you than it does about global warming. Also if you really want to use my (free) awesome debunking tool, I suggest you laminate it or something.

Dipping my toe into the realm of formulaic today. But man does this feel accurate. For the record, I personally was always bored by reliability and Toyotas. Except for maybe the Supra. But evidently, because it was interesting, they stopped making that one. A stuck gas pedal is definitely not boring, however.

Uncharacteristic for this blog, I know, but a word of advice, based on personal experience: If your gas pedal sticks don’t turn off the ignition, as your steering column will lock, creating all sorts of unintended excitement. Best to pop the car into neutral (both with manual or auto) and safely coast to a halt on the side of the road. Then turn off the ignition and call your lawyer.

I have noticed that the comments section is quieted by a state cartoon. So of course, I felt compelled to draw another.
This is a systemic and vexing problem in NY State Government, and the absolute root of Albany’s inability to change its self-serving profligacy. Even if we “threw all the bums out,” the political architecture, the lobbyists and the influence peddling would remain, and therefore so would the problem.

Weird. I’ve had a lot of electrical cords sitting in my sketchbook this week.
