I'm enjoying the new anthology of every New Yorker cartoon published through 2004. Some of the commentary reminds me that many great cartoonists used writers. Moreover, it tells me that the identity of these writers is very often known. I wonder if somebody would be so kind as to put together an anthology by writer? We could do a half dozen or so in the book, and see their famous cartoons with well-known cartoonist names attached. Illuminating, I'd think.
I see Sarah has been licking the screen. Kids.
"I'm sorry, I've forgotten your, ah, your..."
"Name?"
"Ah, yes! That's it, thanks! Yes, your name."
(whew!)
