I know I just ran a comic the other day about Fox News. (Or rather Foxy News.) But don’t worry. I’m not going to make a habit of this..
Last Kiss will always be more about wacky relationships and absurd lust than topical events and celebrities. (Hmm. If I did a Tiger Woods gag I could have both. No. No. Must resist.)
But every once in awhile I do have an opinion and occasionally it escapes into my work.
And, yes, I have a very, very low opinion of Fox News. But, I have a pretty low opinion of most TV news. I’m a former newspaper reporter. And the only way most underpaid newspaper reporters can get through the day is by telling themselves that TV reporters are overpaid bums who just report headlines, stand in front of car crashes and smile.
Of course, this is an incredibly broad over-generalization. In fact, it’s like something you’d hear on a 24-hour news broadcast…that fills its time with opinions, sensationalism and fluff.
I know…I’m ranting. Sorry. Next week we’re back to just funny. No axes will be ground. No soap boxes will be mounted. In the meantime, if you want a soap box of your own–leave a comment!

I’ll be back to sexy silliness next week, but I’ve been having fun with mother-themed jokes this week. Why? Well, it’s probably because I recently created a zillion Mother’s Day gags for a greeting card manufacturer. So I’ve still got mom gags oozing from my veins.
But it’s also because this hasn’t been an easy year for the Mother Obviously Superior of the Lustig clan. So I’m really grateful that she’s back on her feet–and ready to correct my grammar–again. It’s been awhile. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom!
