Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest
This cartoon will probably keep me out of the children’s literature industry for good – not that I had high hopes of striking gold by spinning morally uplifting stories for tykes. (Image after jump.) But hey, this is the Splendid Marbles Cartoon Caption Contest, and the subject matter, although neither laced with profanity nor oozing [...]
Time to Vote for the Winning Cartoon Caption!
My editorial staff and I have narrowed the list of cartoon caption submissions to five finalists – after another long and arduous fight, of course. (Finalists’ captions listed after jump.) I’m going through editorial staffers like a wealthy celebrity goes through spouses – but it’s well worth the cost in careers and emotions.
The five final [...]
New Year’s Cartoon Caption Contest (Plus last week’s winner)
This is my version of a New Year’s cartoon. It’s almost perfect – if crudeness is the benchmark – but it desperately needs a caption. Please dig deep in the creative recesses of your mind and submit one in the comment section, along with a valid email address, and you could win a $10 cash [...]
It’s Time to Vote for the Best Cartoon Caption!
In the spirit of Christmas, I’ve decided to go with five finalists as opposed to three for the Splendid Marbles Holiday Cartoon Caption Contest. And I must say that it was still extremely difficult to narrow the captions submitted to five, as opposed to only three. (The Finalists are listed after the jump.) I would [...]

Your Chance to Vote on the Final Three Captions
My editorial staff and I whittled down the caption submissions to three. It was a tough slog; antique chairs were smashed to bits, cheap alcohol was consumed with reckless abandon, and several relationships – both professional and personal – were soiled beyond the point where even a rigorous cleansing would be remotely sensible.
But it was [...]

Cro-Magnon Fire Squad
(Cartoon after jump.)I was on the Upper East Side this morning, desperately seeking an affordable place for breakfast – it was a long but ultimately satisfying quest (I found a cheap bagel place on 80th and 3rd Avenue).
