Cartoons: Fridge Fun

Post Editors

A young man with a transistor radio slouches in comfy chair in front of a fireplace. Behind him, sitting upright in an identical chair facing the other direction, an older gentleman with a newspaper casts a disparaging look the young man's way.

This is the greatest. My son is a lawyer and so is my daughter-in-law and nephew. They will definitely get a kick out of these.
