The Seventies...continuing...

OK, Ok, it's been a whle since I addressed this blog, I'm sorry.

I've been trying to keep it real,  and locate pertinent information to make it so.

That's a job in itself.

This chapter is about...Love, from the 70's

I know , I know, Love?

 Boring, time to move on...

I felt the same way, then I found a large batch of cartoons addressing love, so I said

Buck up and just write it, so, either close your eyes, or read on, I might just do the same

So here it is 

Love.

The Webster's dictionary justified my chapter with the following...in no particular order

love (luv) a noun. An intense and warm feeling for one another. To like, or desire enthusiastically, A zero score in Tennis, ,Need I say more.  

 The first ones called, "Take off your Glasses"Next is something I called "Ah Love...." 

".. and finally "Out the Window"

  

Sure they are cynical.I was depressed, and my cartoons were my therapy. It was a hard time.  Susan liked strays of all kinds, the house always had some new entity in the fold for a while.

 A new dog, cat or person was in our home, or life. someone said ,of me, that I would give you the shirt off my back, but first I'd have to draw it .  That was pretty true, below you will see an example of , just that. 

The funny part about this shirt is that I created myself, in 1971, as Young old John, white beard and all. Suzy and I had an unusual relationship, I had no where to go, we enjoyed each others company I guess, but we stayed together because where would we go. That would soon change.

To be continued,, Soon I hope, sorry about the delay.  Time passes too quickly.
