My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #923

In The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #923 from the issue of November 25, 2024, we have two bears sitting outdoors with two teddy bears. My submission is shown here. The drawing is by Ali Solomon.

"Nonsense, Ted—they're named for a president."

My Copy of I Love(ish) New York City by Ali Solomon

I did not attend the book launch and signing with Ali Solomon on October 27, 2022 at the Corner Bookstore in Manhattan. Instead, I arranged for a copy of I Love(ish) New York City: Tales of City Life to be signed to me in my absence, and the shop even had it delivered. I'm sure it's better to be there in person at the reception, but we all have to make compromises sometime.

My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #726

I tried not to get carried away with my entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #726 for September 28, 2020. The stinging drawing is by Ali Solomon.

"I told you we should stockpile hydroxychloroquine."

October 12, 2020 Update:  I'm afraid I didn't vote this week—well, I did, just not in the caption contest—but for me it's Encinitas all the way.
