It’s Saturday, which means I’ve been pedaling my cyber-bike around the digital neighborhood all morning to deliver another cartoon newsletter to your virtual sidewalk.
I have a hard time differentiating between Lee Morgan and Feddie Hubbard. I have tons of both and love the post/hard bop they were such a big part of. You, sir, besides being a world-class arteest, have an impeccable taste in music.
Unless I’m very familiar with a particular recording, I probably couldn’t tell them apart. I have this vague impression that Morgan sounds “happier” than Hubbard, but that’s not exactly quantifiable, and is possibly influenced by a recording I heard that was reputed to be Hubbard berating an audience in Europe.
None took offense but one replied and said "it made him chuckle and also weep." I assume he may know of some "lazy" preachers. Still, it is a great comic. Keep up the great work.
You're wonderfully written news-note, promptly tossed to my digital sidewalk (and not on my cyber roof) is a welcome, and delightful respite from the other "intelligence" that clogs the virtual street and seems to be getting more artificial by the quarky second ... Thank you!

Thanks, Jerry.

"Man of the Sloth" was my favorite for the week. Since several of my relatives are pastors, I shared it with them all.
Thanks, Tim! I hope none of your relatives took offense.

I was having a Smokey Stover moment.

My pleasure, Gunnar! Thanks for the comment!
Your introductory sentence gave me a vivid mind movie! Well written, as I'm inbetween newpaper delivery and online data. Must be the new chair pad.
