Since I’ve determined that the Magic 8 Ball is a useful paranormal detection device – at least for cartoon purposes – I have been missing mine something fierce. In a moment of insanity, I sold it at a garage sale. (DUMB, DUMB, DUMB!!!! ARRRGGHHHH! Image of head banging against wall.)

As luck would have it, the toy store below me happens to sell them! While I haven’t gotten around to purchasing a new one yet, I’ve at least begun to entertain the idea.

This has led me to a renewed inclusion of the aforesaid device in Entities-R-Us cartoons once again. It’s one of those things that is far too funny to miss out on even with the prospect of over-use.

So, look forward to some more 8-Ball humor. And, if you’re ever in Rhinebeck, check out Land Of Oz toy store for your supply of Magic 8 Balls, mood rings and Uncle Wiggley games. AND, they also sell my children’s horse book, Can I Ride, in the handmade and signed version.

Will I write more 8-Ball cartoons? Yes, Definitely!
