Monday Sketchbook: Courage

Today's gag comes from Riley Elwood of the Sherbrooke Ward in Meridian, Idaho.

Turns out he had enough courage to give the talk rather than say no.

Digging up the past

It's amazing what you can dig up and find in your closet when you do family history!

Just for grins, you can see this exact same cartoon on Meridian Magazine this week!

Special Mother's Day doubleheader!

These are sort of variations on a theme. The top one is an adaptation of one that originally appeared in Zarahemla Times. The particular version also is in this week's Meridian Magazine.

I heard from the missionaries in our ward that they can Skype home on Mother's Day. That got me to thinking what they might have done back in Helaman's time...

It probably would have worked just as well (if not better) without the header.

Either way, get off the computer and go tell your mom that you love her! Happy Mother's Day!

Not-so-smooth sailing

Man, I HATE those sidewalk potholes!

By the way, in case you missed the logo on the side, my cartoons now also run in Meridian Magazine on Fridays. You can also see the work of fellow cartoonist Arie Van De Graaff on Tuesdays. What a deal!

If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear

There's one in every ward!

Do something more

Zach is pretty good about getting up in the morning, so his companions won't likely need to resort to anything like this. I had a few companions, however...in fact, I had a hard time coming up with a name for the slumbering elder because I didn't want to implicate anyone.
