On the cover of the New Yorker magazine ( which I can't show here ) I just received today has a drawing of two lesbians holding hands in wedding gowns walking over a bridge leading into New York City probably on their way to get officially married now that it is legal to do so in the Big Apple . . . two same-sex couples to wed, finally. The drawing on the cover is smartly executed, sophisticated and perfect at this time . . . and as usual, a nice rendering by the regular cover artist Barry Blitt . . looks like pen and ink and water color in a very loose and free style. I like Barry's work.
This particular cartoon of mine shown here would've been a perfect addition inside, especially in this particular issue . . . it IS in good taste and I think it's funny . . . I think I'll send it in the next batch . . . sooner or later, the staff at the New Yorker will be so excited that they will no longer be able to stiff my material any more . . . ask anyone, this cartoon belongs in the magazine. Go ahead, ask anyone !
Someone take my bluff. What possible reason could they say . . . besides something like: " Sorry, your stuff is not quite right for The New Yorker, blah, blah, etc. " . . . What are you, nuts ?

I never thought it would this much of a high to get rejected and rejected and rejected and rejected . . . from The New Yorker . . . You wait, I'llk show the bastards. I've PAID my dues . . . I'm pissed off and I'm not gonna take it any more . . . I feel like that guy in the TV commercial . . . " IT'S MY MONEY AND I WANT IT NOW ! "
