Clappy's Cartoonless Political Cartoon: <Today's feature is somewhat based upon an idea that the pencil-less cartoonist stole from Polvo.> ============================================================ Instructions: Draw inside your head, using exaggerated cartoonist features, a sketch of an oversized presidential leather desk chair, pushed up close to a fancy wooden desk. Standing on the seat of the swivel chair is a child sized president wearing disheveled suit and sneakers that makes himself look a sort of like a boy in the later hours of his communion or bar mitzvah party. A sling shot is seen hanging from his back pocket and various toy soldiers and plastic army men are scattered on the desk and on the antique presidential persian rug. In the center of the desk stands a new computer with an opened cardboard Dell brand box laying on the floor next to it. The child sized president is seen leaning hard to one side as he attempts to pull tight the string that is attached to a tin can. The stretched string leads to an opened doorway. The Caption Reads: Uncle Dick! Uncle Dick! Red Alert! I repeat, Red Alert! You had better come over here immediately! I think we have a security breach! Today I opened up an America Online account in attempt to see what our fellow Americans do in this internet thing. I clicked a few buttons. Then some man's voice welcomed me. He then told me I had mail. So I got up and ran outside to the mailbox on the front lawn and sure enough there was mail in it!!! How did he know?! Do you think this might be a good case for the Dept. Of Homeland Security to work on?! They could test the envelopes or something! <Located at the bottom corner of this cartoonless cartoon is a sloppy signature that reads: CLAPPY 8/29/02 The Tennessee Herald or some other fictitious newspaper> ============================================================
