Borgmanpalooza
Faithful bloggers, forgive my wandering attention these days. I hope you checked out the multitude of features on yesterday's www.enquirer.com website celebrating my 30th anniversary here at the paper. They constitute one humongous blog entry, in a way, and illustrate the fact that I work with some great talents. If you didn't see Glenn Hartong's video/podcast, check it out. A new frontier!
I'm spending way too much time answering emails and accepting over-generous accolades. Looking forward to resuming my hobbit-hole routines in the next days.
Thanks, everyone, for welcoming me into your morning each day for these three decades.

Post a Comment*Congrats on thirty. It's a terrific section in the paper and the online extras are great. All around it's an excellent read.
It occured to me while looking at the contest gallery that probably many of the entrants had never drawn an editorial cartoon before. I think it's only fair to them--and fun for the rest of us--if you show us one of your first attempts. Not your first Enquirer piece which is in your book, but something when you were just starting out in college or before.
Just a side note, I share a number of your favorite cartoons, but was dumbstruck when I saw Red & Rover on the list. Every time I read the strip I wonder where the entertainment is in cutsey nostalgia expressed through irrelevant characters using awkward language? I think Dennis the Menace is one panel too many, but why take away any edge he has--add an inconsequential dog and cliche brother--then give him two or three additional frames to remind us of the good ol' days? Sorry for the rant, I'm just wondering what I'm missing.
you're drawing today was very poor, and it looked like it was done by a three year old.
Is it a good idea to charge
someone with childishness
while employing the grammar
of the very young?
