Also, as a personal beef with the New Era for rejecting this, pie in the face gags are always comical. Look at that guy with the spear, he's not escaping that pie what does he think he's doing. That's banana cream in his face and that is funny.Joelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2078555944130693773.post-58109996827660432972009-04-25T14:50:00.000-06:002009-04-25T14:50:00.000-06:00In a vain attempt to determine a solid reason why ...In a vain attempt to determine a solid reason why the New Era would reject your cartoon I actually wasted considerable time researching whether Moses would have ever laid eyes on the Pyramids of Giza, let alone call down curses from heaven within earshot (let alone dodge falling pies) of the edifices. It turns out that Moses (1300 BC) probably did live in the same region of the already constructed pyramids (2500 BC) in what was Memphis and what is now the outskirts of Cairo. So since there is no good historical reason why the New Era would reject your cartoon all I could come up with the unlikely possibility maybe it's just not all that funny.<br /><br />In a somewhat related vein it did get me thinking that toying with the manna-from-heaven concept has potential to be pretty humorous.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01454044084645548171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2078555944130693773.post-87841825375034062152009-04-23T21:39:00.000-06:002009-04-23T21:39:00.000-06:00Depending on the pie I think I could welcome a Pie...Depending on the pie I think I could welcome a Pie curse.Jon Freestonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08887558496666974712noreply@blogger.com
