I have been drawing cartoons for many years. The title of my cartoon panels is THE


LITE STUFF. The premise of my cartoons is that America has a predominantly


commercial culture.  My cartoons fit right into this culture.  I use the methods of


commercial advertising to look at everyday objects (stuff) and events from a humorous


(lite) perspective. The humor often comes from the interplay between word and object. 


So here goes.

Dec. 31: HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Dec. 29: The TREEPOD is an

alternative Christmas tree from several years back. While it looked nice, I later learned one shouldn’t put Xmas lights on metal because metal conducts electricity if wires are frayed. So next time I will use a wooden tripod. The photo is by Philip Dattilo.
