This one is from a couple of weeks ago. I timed it for the week after Jeter retired. Interestingly enough, It drew an angry reader phone call. Apparently, these diseases are nothing to joke about. It seems the caller never whistled past a graveyard.

Fine, just fine.
I find myself drawing a lot of traffic camera cartoons lately. These three all ran in different papers within the same week.
Power Struggle
PSEG has started installing high-voltage cables on 85-foot poles in East Hampton and Port Washington to shore up the reliability of the grid for peak summer demand. Residents, predictably, are not pleased.
Tweet cop
The original version of a gag I rather liked. It’s also a sort of proof of concept for another idea knocking around the ether.

I won all three places in the “Visual Media: Cartoons” category.
The two black and white cartoons ran in the Long Island Business News.
The color one ran in Newsday.

The Sandy beach blues
Beach repair after the hurricane is an issue in these parts. They’re finding buried cars and trying to figure what to do about a changed landscape. The local beach association has been too busy infighting to get their act together. I don’t see how “my” beach will be open for business by the summer.
Against the wind
And now, some Sandy inspired work. These were done by battery and flashlight power, at first. Then, thanks to Norwegian hospitality and my first-ever cartoonist’s bug-out kit, I worked from my in-laws dining room table. It’s amazing what you can fit into a blue bag that’s bigger on the inside.
Despite the hurricane, I made deadline. I don’t know whether I should be proud or fitted for a white jacket.
Maybe she needs a clothespin.
