Cartoons for grown-ups

Hi friends,

I use this cartoonist's work about his adventures with the protagonist of Tales of Mere Existence, Lev Yilmatz, in the learning frameworks class I teach at UT . In my humble (but incredibly valid) opinion (since you ARE reading my blog), he is quite clever. Your sense of humor should be fairly dry to consume these clips, so you may want to run yourself through the medium heat cycle for 30 minutes just in case.

This clip makes a simple, but powerful point regarding procrastination: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P785j15Tzk

**I should mention that the language in the depression clip gets rather rough. Just pretend it's a a flock of rainbow-colored unicorns instead. :D

Enjoy!
Jaimie
