The Lite Stuff
by
Mark Doeffinger
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.
Feb. 14: Happy Valentine’s Day!

Feb. 17: With Watson’s victory on Jeopardy, artificial intelligence is in the air.
Feb. 18: Although J.D. Salinger, author of Catcher in the Rye, appeared on the cover of Time Magazine in 1961, he later became a recluse from the media until his death in January of this year.
