I saw his Sandra Fluke cartoon awhile ago and wow. Not witty, not subtle, not artful. Just ugly vitriol and even then, the lowest hanging fruit. It makes me sad that this guy is a working cartoonist. If he posted his cartoons on fliers at a grocery store, he wouldn't be allowed back. I don’t have much to say except you’re right. I saw his Sandra Fluke cartoon awhile ago and wow.

In fact right now he's engaged in an internal struggle: "If I don't reply to Neal's post I'll look weak. If I do reply I'll look like a chubby loser with too much time on my hands." True to his character he will do nothing save for sitting silently, squinting, gnashing his teeth, stewing in his own fat. Perhaps sitting on his hands. Perhaps with one hand in his ass crack. Hopefully Gary's son disowns his father after he finds out his dad is a talentless hack -- a gluttonous one at that. (P.S. Hey Gary! Sale on pork rinds, aisle 3.) Gary is most definitely “a fat”.

There isn't any time for cut-and-dried monotony. There exists time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time!

Neither of you know how much I do for charity, or who I've lost or who I know that's been affected by tragedy or loss. So you can't fairly assess my inability to empathize with those affected by Hurricane Irene or any other disaster. Secondly, I really couldn't care less what Neal thinks of my cartoon. I happened across his attempt at satirizing me purely by accident. I never knew he or his work existed, as I am sure most people don't either. Max, to your point of what he was criticizing -- he stated his opinion that I'm a terrible cartoonist, or something to that effect. So it's obvious he's taking a more general swipe than you think. The bottom line is, it doesn't matter to me what a non-professional thinks of my work. I don't need anyone's approval. If I did, I'd get it from the many editors that publish my editorial cartoons, or the papers that run my syndicated feature worldwide. Neal is obviously suffering from extreme jealousy over his inability to break into the profession. That's understandable. There are many wannabes out there, who can render okay, but lack the originality, humor, or analysis to make a living at it. In fact, I feel sorry for Neal. He may be a nice guy in person, and if I saw him on his street corner, I'm sure I'd give him spare change. Regarding the Irene cartoon. I never said there wasn't personal loss. And my cartoon does nothing to diminish the lives lost. But it can't be denied by any objective viewer of the national news coverage leading up to the storm, that its impact was greatly exaggerated. Again, that's not to say there wasn't tragedy, it's just that the storm never hit with the impact which was forecast of it. That's a fact. Okay, I've had my say. Nealy can get giddy and dissect and respond to this message. I'm glad I gave meaning to Neal's uneventful life by commenting on his lonely blog. He'll have to seek affirmation elsewhere from here on. I won't be back to view it. It was a slow day and I had 10 minutes to kill while waiting for my son to take nap. So if you want to debate further, email me, because I won't catch a reply here.

Well, la di da. You know who else just won a big award? Chris Brown. And last time I checked, his music sucked and he was a woman-beater. Awards do not always mean that one is talented or a good person. In fact, a bridge planned for Toronto that was never built won an award recently. You don't even have to exist to get awards sometimes! Ooooh, awards! Well, la di da. You know who else just won a big award? Chris Brown.
