    Shark er Shart Week on Discovery

     

    8 9 13 Bearman Cartoons Shark Week Shart Week

    I have to be honest with today’s cartoon.  I have never been into Shark Week on Discovery Channel.  Sure I have watched some of the programs but after a while they all seem the same.  Yet the ratings each year are great so they keep rolling it in year after year.

    For those who don’t understand what a “Shart” is (as many of my wife’s friends seem not to), it is not quite a shit and not quit a fart..thus shart.  It has also been described as a “wet fart”.    Now in real life if I came across a shark, I would probably full blown crap myself.

    How about you.  Anyone into Shark Week?  Any animal you are more afraid of than others?

  • Coffee, Tea or Depends

    I worked on this editorial cartoon before I read that they are pulling back on the regulations but it still is a harsh reminder of how the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) can have a knee jerk reaction.

    After the failed terror attempt on a Northwest Flight last week the following regulations went into effect for international flights:

  • Limiting international passengers to a single carry-on bag
  • Second-round security checks, including manual pat downs and body searches
  • On certain flights, disabling the map showing the plane’s progress and location
  • Prohibiting passengers from having blankets or pillows in their laps for the last hour of the flight
  • Requiring passengers to remain seated for the last hour of the flight

    • Now I have no problem with any of those things to promote security EXCEPT for the last one.  It is at the point in  the flight that they say I can’t get up for the bathroom, that I tend to always have to go.  There were domestic flights that I took after 9/11 that they told us we would not be able to get up during the flight (less than 2 hours) so we had better go to the bathroom before boarding.  Of course that was after I chugged a bottle of water.

    When those of us with weak bladders and spastic colons are hindered in our ability to go when needed, then and only then have the terrorists really won.

  • WTF: Caganer Pooping Christmas Statue

    I have been to Spain. I have been to Spain at Christmas.  Unlike the crappy manger scenes that Americans make that is limited to the manger only, in Spain they make a scene of the entire town with the manger being only a part of it.

    And while in America, you can barely get people to notice when a manger scene is erected, in Spain they line up for a half mile in some places just to see it.  I guess I didn’t look close enough to notice the Caganer.  Here is one of Queen Elizabeth.

    Yes hidden in Spanish scenes is a pooping statue.  It started in Catalonia but has since moved to other areas.  Somehow it symbolizes equality because in the end it doesn’t matter how famous you are, everyone poops.

    One company creates many varieties poking fun at various icons and celebrities. There is even a Barack Obama with the words “Yes we Can” on it. Check out the video.

    Oh and scroll down. One more day to vote in the Editorial Cartoon Caption Contest. Winner announced on Thursday.
