Saturday, apparently, was National Cartoonists day. My good friend, Rick McKee, is the editorial cartoonist for The Augusta Chronicle, and so to bust his chops I told him that would celebrate the day by standing silently until someone put a pithy caption beneath me.
Here’s the thing, though. You don’t want to mock a cartoonist. Because, you know, they can draw things.
Here’s Rick’s response:

ReplyDeleteIt's a rare gift to be ribbed so niftily by a good friend. He could at least have given you a little more hair, though.
ReplyDeleteLol, well played Sir...

ReplyDeleteAs the kids like to say (do they still?):
ReplyDeleteOh, snap!
