I’m not really into cute cartoons but I liked this idea I wrote last Friday. And after today’s Middle East cartoon, I thought it’d be cool to go with something a little lighter even though it’s on a very divisive issue. Damn, even when I go light, I stick to the hard subjects.
I wasn’t sure about this cartoon so I bounced it off three ladies. The first loved it and thinks it’s even better than my previous 1864 cartoon. The second just gave me a thumbs-up emoji. The third, a proofer, wrote, “Ok, I think I get it. Cactus didn’t want to have a baby cactus but was forced to. The snake is just the straight man. If I’m right it’s all correct.” I told her she killed it for me.
Anyway, the last time I drew a desert cartoon, I included lots of Easter eggs with one of them being a guy on a horse…in a desert. A lot of people didn’t get that one and made the wrong guesses. So, I’m giving those readers a second chance. Remember, it’s a guy…on a horse…in a desert…and he’s singing. I’m not helping you anymore.
Music note: I listened to The Pixies.

Not trying to be obtuse, but why is there a NY on the guy’s guitar. The band that wrote “Horse with No Name” was America. And I only remember 3 songs by that group: ‘Horse with No Name”, “Tinman” and “Ventura Freeway” (which is in LA). I Googled them and they have a bunch of other hits, but no reference to New York.
Great Toon, I just have questions on your Easter Egg…And yes, I know you don’t want to comment on it anymore. 🙂

Tim, just an FYI – NY is for Neil Young, not New York. And it’s ‘Ventura Highway’, not ‘Freeway’. :)

Yes! I used to get Neil Young’s ‘Heart of Gold’ mixed up with that song all the time before I played guitar. Both songs are good and easy to play.
Also, I didn’t know the song was called “Ventura Highway”. That song’s good too, just harder to play.
Finally, I never knew that Neil Young did a cover of ‘Horse with No Name’. I know all his stuff up to “Rust Never Sleeps”, (except for “Tonight’s the Night”). I haven’t listened to him much after that.
Thank you and Clay both for the clarifications by the way! 🙂

I just did some research and you are correct. Now, NY did cover it but it’s not his song. See that? I can learn. Thank you. But hey, you got it correctly.

Abortion SHOULD be prickly for men, unless you believe that women get pregnant on their own. EVERY involves a man. There are no virgin births anymore.

I’m wondering more about the black hole the rat is about to dive into. I presume it is a worm hole that comes out under Trump’s chair at the trial. Here’s hoping it bites his ass!

The black hole is pizza rat’s nose, so it will be quite the task for him to crawl into it!
