Mental health misery
Despite appeals from mental health experts for urgent funding increases and the promises of the Labor Government to increase funding for Mental Health services, K.Rudd's government bypasses the mentally ill and passes the booty baton to elite athletes.

Waiting Zone; Cougar prey
Mildura Rural City Council implemented a Safety Waiting Zone in a bid to curb night violence. Night revellers can await a Taxi in a kerb side waiting zone monitored by security cameras. Meanwhile Tony Abbott had decreed that young women should protect their virginity...
These events coincided with the launch of the TV show "Cougar Town".
Young men in the "Waiting Zone" could become easy prey for Cougars ;)Go to contact page to commission the artist for your cartoons.

Another Sh!t Storm!
Not long after the Global Financial Crisis hit (Also.Krudd.As: a Global Sh!t Storm) and not long after K.Rudd had served a Sh!t Storm upon a RAAF hostess because she had served KRudd what he deemed to be crud, another Sh!t Storm loomed as the true cause of the explosion on SIEV* 36 seemed to be going up in smoke. Conspiracy theories of a cover-up were rife.

Paki Police get runs...
A tour bus transporting the Sri-Lankan cricket team and two Australian Umpires was attacked by terrorists in Pakistan. Rather than attempting to repel or fight the terrorists, the escorting Pakistan guard Police fled in fear, leaving the cricketers and umpires to face the terrorists on their own.
One Paki Policeman even played dead to avoid being shot at.Go to contact page to commission the artist for your cartoons.

A fork in the road
When Ben Cousins sought a new club to revive his AFL career, after being banished from the West Coast Eagles, it seemed surprising that Collingwood showed early interest in recruiting him. President Eddie McGuire had recently proclaimed the Collingwood club would not tolerate player delinquency since an incident in which player Heath Shaw had smashed his car whilst driving under the influence of alcohol. McGuire publically labelled Shaw's passenger friend (anonymous at that point) a "scaley mate" for allowing "a high profile footballer" to drive after he'd been drinking alcohol... Rather embarrassingly McGuire later discovered that Shaw's "scaley mate" was Collingwood team-mate Alan Didak.
