Just a note of thanks for reading this here blog. As of this month, I have been doing it for 19 years. Yeah, since February 2007. I can't believe it. I looked at the data today and there are just over 8,000 entries. (This is number 8,002.) Millions of people have clicked on it since 2007. Crazy!
In that time, I've enjoyed it and gotten a lot of help along the way from friends. Much thanks to them. I have moved from NYC (There I am at the subway stop (above), taking cartoons into the city back in the day.) to New England. I have had some good times and a couple of tragedies. I am happy that the cartooning community is still a friendly, welcoming group.
My Dad, a daily reader until he passed away in January 2025, would email me some thoughts and correct typos that he had seen. A career college professor, he would advise "eternal vigilance" against those typos. Now I'm on my own.
I will continue to post for now, but real life calls me away for a day or two now. I'll be back, and I hope you'll stop by again as well.

Congratulations, Mike (albeit a day late).
I love what you're doing here.
Congratulations...Your blog is an island of sanity and positivity in an ever madding world.
Congratulations, Mike! This is one of the best blogs in the world. I haven’t visited in a long time and was pleasantly surprised you’re still researching and writing. It’s a little haven of sanity and love for comics people. I hope you get to feeling better soon. -Ted

Congratulations. Year after year you have been the source for gag cartoons and cartoonists long forgotten, always interesting and entertaining.
Greetings from old England and congrats on your blog, Mike and its longevity. Think I’ve been a regular visitor since it’s inception, but not so much as I’d like in the last 3 or 4 years due to pressing family matters, but whenever I do stop by it’s always an informative and enlightening read on the world of cartooning. More power to your ink pen!
Simply a blog with integrity, wit and a love of cartooning.
