Green Finger
Posted by: | CommentsThis cartoon was drawn in 2004 by my nephew, Matt Carey. Matt passed away last week. He was 30 years old. He leaves behind a beautiful baby daughter, Ellie, wife, Kimberly, and stepdaughter, Whitney.
While at the University of Kentucky Matt drew cartoons for the student newspaper, the Kentucky Kernel. He was a good cartoonist and hoped to make a living at his craft but held a real job as a hedge.

Mrs. Murdoch slapped silly her husband’s Parliament pie assailant yesterday. No word on whether the guy smuggled the fully assembled shaving creme concoction in his pants or if he assembled it on site. In any case he managed to achieve the impossible – not by outsmarting security – but by turning Murdoch into a victim, for a moment.
David Cameron is now calling for more media regulation. Here’s an LA Times editorial.
