16287 Plum Loco comic of the day

Here's an old cartoon, I did about 7-8 years ago and was purchased by Reader's Digest . . . . So after a about three years went by and never saw print, I inquired curiously about it.  They said that it might have been used in one of their overseas editions, and that I was free to use it.

At first I thought maybe it could be that some politically-correct pinhead thought that with the guy wearing a turban in the cartoon, it might be construed that it was a tie-in to the hot outlawed Danish Mohammed Kurt Westergard cartoon with the guy wearing a turban and had a " Katzenjammer-type round bomb " in his turban.   in otherwords, NO TURBANS.

The guy in THIS cartoon is from INDIA and is probably or COULD be a SIKH or a HINDU for crysakes.  Or maybe it's the minarets. Who knows ? 

INDIA is OUR friend, they don't care!

It would be a hip fashion trend here in the USA . . .  the turban ! 

All we need is a Schwartznegger or a  Travolta, or Brad Pitt or a Tom Cruise to kick it off sporting one on the street . . . .  Hell, I WOULD PROBABLY BUY ONE!

I can see an ad on TV . . . Get your turban in beautiful pastel colors, not 59.95, not 49.95,  not 39.95 not 29.95, but for a limited time only . . . now only 19.95.  Yes, you heard right, only 19.95 ( plus shipping and handling )

And that's not all, wait a minute !

 It gets better, . . . order within the next 30 minutes, and the first 500 callers will get the turban in the color of their choice for only ten dollars and if you do this right now we'll throw in another free turban . . . just pay separate shipping.

Yes, that's right, you get TWO turbans for the low-low price of only TEN DOLLARS ! ( Just pay separate shipping )
