Blast #194

                                                      Playing a New 'Toon

             If you read the Blast with any regularity, you know that I am a doodler who occasionally creates a cartoon or two to express my thoughts.  While riding the Metro-North back from New York City last night (we went in to see the revival of John Guare's brilliant Six Degrees of Separation with our fabulous friends, Lillian and John Lissauer --- great production of a terrific play!) I got an idea about creating an ongoing political cartoon strip entitled The Toddler and, while this may not reach the levels of Doonesbury, it might, at the very least, allow me to express myself in a medium other than prose.  So, here's the first installment of The Toddler, entitled Play Date.  I hope the pictures are worth at least a few hundred words.
