DEATH IN A SAD LITTLE CIRCLE

Okay, so maybe I fixate on this one stupid cartoon, but study last Sunday's offering below:





I realize that not all cartoons have to be funny, but doesn't this seem like the lonely ramblings of a desperate old man, bitter and estranged from his children, realizing the tragic futility of his existence as death whispers in his ear a little more loudly, a little more clearly with each passing day?

On the plus side, the Marmaduke cartoon that ran just below it was a real hoot.
