Good News, Bad News

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife). Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 2004. It is crazy that this is from 21 years ago. But now, it is even true in America also, not just Europe and not just against the Jews anymore., but against Western Civilization also.

Thank you so much to all of you who have donated!
The Holidays and a New Year are rapidly approaching. I am so very thankful for so much!

The Smiling Optimist

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife). Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 2015 called, "The Smiling Optimist". Yaakov was always the optimist and I was always the pessimist. I thought of it as being a realist. But it is time for some optimism for our future. But I always thought that Shuldig's smile here was a bit uncertain. Yaakov had a knack for giving so much expression with just a small line or wiggle in the line.

Europe is Lost

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife). Here is another Dry Bones cartoon from 2014. Europe is lost.

I used to argue with Yaakov to not draw ugly characters because people would not want to share them, but he did as he saw and wanted. As we move into the Holiday season, I keep hearing about European Christmas markets that are vandalized and terrorized. I am sad over the situation. This cartoon was from 11 years ago, and is even more true today. You are welcome to share, even if it is not a cute or pretty image.

The once Proud Nations of Europe

Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife). Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 2014. It is sad that this is true today, even more, and that now serious antisemitism has become part of the mix. In Ireland the Dublin City Council is re-naming the park that is named after a native son of Ireland and a hero of World War 2 against the Germans, and the 6th President of Israel, Chaim Herzog to be re-named "free Palestine" Park.

Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow, Nov. 27th

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife) Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 1996. Thanksgiving is almost the one major, family get together type holiday in America that the Jews can fully participate in, and we are very Thankful and happy about that.

 Happy Thanksgiving for tomorrow November 27th.  I have much to be thankful for. And I hope to be able to keep alive some of the Dry Bones spirit to keep up Yaakov's desire to help the Jewish People survive and thrive.


and ... here is a second cartoon for the holiday from 2013. This year, the 2 holidays do not exactly fall together but, here in Israel, all the bakeries are already selling "Sufganiot", (jelly doughnuts), the Israeli and Sephardic version of "Latkes". They both use a lot of oil to cook, which is maybe why they are traditional Hannukah foods.


Update: The orthopedic doctor says that my rib is probably broken, but that there is no point in wasting time to do an x-ray since there is nothing to be done but wait for time to heal. But I am actually feeling much better, so maybe it is just a bruise. I gave a very successful art lesson and lecture yesterday, and am doing another, now to be weekly lesson, to a smaller group today.

By the way, you are always welcome to do a right click save on any of the cartoons and share with friends, as long as it is not for commercial purposes.

Hoping that "The Good" Guys Win!

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie, by Sali the LSW. (Long Suffering Wife) Here is a Dry Bones cartoon from 2003. We are hoping that the "good guys" win!

I have not yet been able to get an x-ray to see if my rib is indeed broken, but that should happen today. Also, I am feeling much better, so maybe it is just a muscle sprain. I am supposed to give an art lesson and lecture to about 15 international diplomatic women tomorrow, and the venue is outdoors, but covered. The weather forecast, after many days of a major heat wave, is predicting thunder storms. So, it might be a very unusual and interesting experience. The whole adventure is a new and a bit daunting thing for me. But I am taking peoples advice to stay busy in the first year after Yaakov's passing. It has been 7 months now. Also, I finally succeeded in getting my spelling checker to work. Hooray! I am very computer challenged. But I have the excuse that I am old. 😊
