This man brought a smile to my face so often I should sue him for causing my wrinkles.

My favorite cartoonist!

The one I like the best is with the kid trying to open the door of the School for the Gifted. He is pulling, but the door says, “Push.” I can’t find it now, but I think I have seen it on a coffee mug.

I also like the one where the puppy is being lectured by his parents for being rude to their guests when he refused to sniff butts.

Thanks. I had the push/pull part backwards in my memory. Love that one — so true.

You caught me. The shoe fits perfectly. There are tales that are told. I just laugh.

I love his humor! I used to have the monthly paper pad that you ripped off one day at a time to reveal the next joke. Nice to discover the online version. Thanks!

Two favorites:

Pair of spiders with a web across the bottom of a slide.
The one says "If this works we'll eat like kings".


Another one shows flys driving a minivan with the placard, "Maggots On Board"
