Vegetables, explained
I just really like this gag from Zarahemla Times, so I'm sharing it here as well.

Monday Sketchbook: So this almost happened...
I thought it might be kind of fun for Kerry Jo, as a gung-ho returned missionary, to accidentally do the same thing while watching General Conference. I drew this up on Friday, and thought I'd run it on Sis. Kerry Jo's Mission Blog on Saturday, the day they usually do the Sustaining of Church Officers in General Conference. But for some reason, I didn't get around to coloring it in time so it didn't get posted.
Then the Saturday Afternoon Session of General Conference happened. I decided that I didn't want Kerry Jo associated with that kind of controversy!
I know that there's a reason we ask for opposed votes during the sustainings. There are some folks who have legitimate concerns that need to be brought forward — it even happened in one of my wards one time (and it proved to be a good thing that it did!). But it was handled in a thoughtful and appropriate way. It wasn't a stunt.
I liked what one Twitter user said about the dissenting votes in conference: "It made the act of sustaining our leaders that much more meaningful to me."
So, yeah. This isn't the usual Monday Sketchbook. But I do like the gag, it's just that the timing was wrong!

Another foot or two? Already?
Today's cartoon is based on idea from faithful reader Alice, who submitted it as part of the caption contest from a few weeks ago.
I think most parents have experienced the overnight growth phenomenon. It can be kind of scary!

Monday Sketchbook: The Sunday Sessions
Here are my notes from the Sunday sessions of General Conference. If you'd like, they're available for download through Dropbox.
And don't forget to download the Conference wrap-up packet from Mormon Cartoonist Arie Van De Graaff. Together with my notes they make a perfect combination for an fun, free and informative (not to mention easy) Family Home Evening lesson! Review my notes, then pass out the activity packet!
As always, remember you can download the sessions from lds.org and listen to them at your convenience!

Throw your hand up in the air (all those in favor)
The main sessions of General Conference start tomorrow. There are many ways to watch, listen and participate both online and using traditional media. There's even a webpage on the Church site that gives you tips on how to prepare (but it's not nearly as crafty as what you'll find on Pinterest!). And in case you missed it, the General Women's Session is already archived.
On a related note, lds.net is running a story on "The General Conference Comics Mashup," featuring some of my cartoons as well as some from Mormon Cartoonist Arie Van De Graaff, Jon Clark and (relative) newcomer Scott Hales. Check it out!
