Pathos

Sometimes the funnies aren't that funny. In the world of editorial cartoons, laughter is the farthest thing from the mind of the artist. Sad chuckles, yes, hearty gut laughs, no. Anyway, the three editorial cartoons I read daily, by Toles, Oliphant, and Sargent, all were good today. But not funny. If you enjoy a good sad laugh with a decidedly left tilt from time to time, check out Santa Cruz's own Comic News. And if you prefer your funnies the old fashioned way...okay, not in the newspaper, but the standard titles and contents, even classic Peanuts is included--go to the Comics.com website. Come on, laugh a little.
