About Me
-
- Name:B.K. Marcus
- Location:Charlottesville, Virginia, United States
B.K. Marcus is an amateur political economist with no formal education in the subject. He is a house husband, a faculty spouse, a dilettante, and a layabout. Once upon a time, he made a fair living as a web developer. If you accuse him of being descended from entrenched Establishment Keynesians, he will deny it!

Random Quotes
"It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a 'dismal science.' But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance."
-- Murray Rothbard

One of my favorite games is to tell punch lines only and to let my comrades imagine the joke.
This single panel doesn't even need a back story to be funny.
In our postmodern world, the "un-joke" or "un-riddle" has many unexplored possibilities. "I met a man who said he hadn't had a bite in days, so I gave him some money for food." "What has four wheels, a handle, and a spinning blade? A lawn mower, for one." This panel could be a graphic postmodern "un-joke", an "un-cartoon" wherein the very juxtaposition of the words "zombies" and "lawyers" touches our funny bone simply because it evokes a lifetime of lawyer jokes.
