When I started my career, I wanted to be a newspaper strip cartoonist. I tried a few times, but never could break in. I later fell in love with making animation, but I always wondered "what if..?"

If I was a newspaper cartoonist today, I would be going through my Kubler Ross options, wondering if there was a Career AfterLife when newspapers are disappearing so quickly.
