In cartooning news, Kurt Westergaard, the cartoonist who drew the Muhammad with turban bomb cartoon in 2005, has died at the age of 86, despite various assassination attempts.
And that cartoon has and will cause untold harm to innocent people from the mental zealots.

I don't normally follow this thread closely as it is maudlin.
I was sorry to hear about Una Stubbs and also Jackie Mason.
But I am totally distraught about this news of Nanci Griffith who was one of the most beautiful people ever to have walked this earth.
Thanks Nanci for all of the tenderness and the life observations and the values and the memories.
