Comic: Reboot button

Cartoon of kids and a dog. Boy says, “He won’t do any tricks. Where’s the reboot button?
I found the reboot technique for our dog. It's called a treat. Our puppy changes her behavior immediately if she hears the crinkle of a treat bag. It works for husbands too.

Comic: Revising Dad's History

Cartoon of a man behind a boy at a PC. Man says, “Mom told me you used the web to prove I really didn’t walk seven miles uphill both ways to school every day.”
Webcomic: The Family Blog

Cartoon of a boy at a computer. Boy says to Mom, "I'm writing a blog. Does your family or Dad's have the most sordid details?"
There are no sordid details in my blog... at least none I'm aware of. It seems safe to talk about yourself as opposed to loved ones. If that doesn't work, make a cartoon out of them and distort the details enough so no one recognizes themselves.
I drew this in Adobe Illustrator CS2
Webcomic: Political favors

Cartoon of a press conference. A reporter says, “Senator! Any truth to the rumor you exchanged political favors for RAM?”
This is an illustration I did back in 1996 for the sixth edition of the "New Rider's Internet Yellow Pages."

Cartoon: Retirement Plan

Cartoon of a couple at a computer. The man says, “At our current savings rate, we should be able to retire in three hundred and twenty-seven years.”
I have a much better retirement plan. I close my eyes and toss the prospectus in the round file. Who needs to worry yourself with all that red ink?

Cartoon: Steam Powered PC

Cartoon of two men next to an Victorian-looking computer. One says, “There’s a good chance your computer isn't environmentally friendly.”
I picture this computer belonging to Charles Dickens at one time. I can just see him typing out, "Please, sir, I want some more." Of course, Charles would have been thinking about more RAM when he thought of that.

Cartoon: Recycling Education
Cartoon of two children and an old computer at a bust stop. The caption reads, "Melanie's dad found a unique way to recycle his old computer.When I drew this cartoon, I thought the PC looked somewhat modern. Is that a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" floppy drive? Where's the SCSI cable? What do you mean it's wireless?

Cartoon of a couple at a romantic dinner. The man says, “The question remains: can a Mac person and a Windows Person get along in marital bliss?”

Cartoon: Video Game Aliens

Cartoon of guy and space alien. Guy says, "“Look! You can’t be an alien! You don’t look like the aliens on any of my video games!”
I wonder if a space alien would be appalled if it saw how it was depicted in the media. I wonder if they would like "Sector 9?"
