The gapingvoid #Sandy Cartoons

#sandy. Wow. I’m stun­ned. It’s been quite an event­ful 24 hours, to say the least. My pra­yers go out to everybody.

I drew these three car­toons this mor­ning, and pos­ted them on Ins­ta­gram [user­name: @gapingvoid]. Though they won’t dry out the land any quic­ker, I hope they’ll make some­body suf­fe­ring through this first-hand feel bet­ter for  a little while, at least.

[P.S. As you know, New York City and I have this very intense long-distance love affair– I used to live there, so I’m par­ti­cu­larly upset about what hap­pe­ned to my old West Village neigh­borhood. I visit fre­quently, though not NEARLY often enough. Boo.]

Time to be strong…

His work acknowledges the absurdity of workaday life, while also encouraging employees to respond with passion, creativity, and non-conformity...   MacLeod’s work is undeniably an improvement over the office schlock of yore. At its best, it’s more honest, and more cognizant of the entrepreneurial psyche, while still retaining some idealism.

Last year my State of the College address was 76 slides loaded with data. This year it was 14 cartoons that were substantially more memorable.

In moments of indecision I glance at the wall [to Hugh's work] for guidance.
