A picture's worth


Lately I am getting more and more into cartoons. After seeing William Steig's exhibit at the Jewish Museum here in NYC, I have been struck by how prevalent cartoons are in our media and how poufound their messages are with just a few words. It's possible taht cartoonists may be the most creative people in our culture, which begs the question "why do they get so little credit?" Here's one I saw recently in Time Magazine that I just love. The artist is Mike Peters.
