Cartoon Tuesday: Racing Down a Road to Nowhere?
I'm guessing the speeding metaphor in this cartoon from Gary Varvel of the Indianapolis Star (click through for Pelosi's quote) is not intended to critique spending stimulus dollars on highway expansion. But if you stick House Appropriations Chair David Obey in the driver's seat, it makes for a rather pointed comment on the reckless approach to transportation policy exhibited by some Congressional leaders.

Cartoon Tuesday: Priority
Click through for the conclusion to this week's toon, which comes to us from Rick Smith of Shaker Heights, Ohio. Smith's strip, Yehuda Moon, is a serialized saga with daily entries going back to January. I'm still making my way through the storyline, but having biked the greenways of Lorain County, I had a soft spot for this installment.

Cartoon Tuesday: Cycling = Healthy, Pt. 2
Here's another installment in the "cycling is good for you" series, this time from New York insurer Emblem Health. In this animated ad, a Brooklyn bike commuter pedals across a bridge toward Manhattan, explaining that cycling affords him the same freedom he enjoys from his health care coverage. And to further identify with the target demo, there's even a little modal conflict at the end.
