3721pt Caption: Women working out at gym. One says, But as it turns out, LA (Los Angeles) is the perfect place to have ADD!

So I guess the remedy if you have Attention Deficit Disorder is to move to Beverly Hills.  Yes, it’s true, we’re kind of scatter-brained here. :)

Check out my new cartoon in Psychology Today on older woman, younger man!

They just changed the subject to Stay.  I guess this means you should stay where you are, and not move to LA.

If you are a gag writer (gagwriter) and have written for magazine cartoonists, please leave a comment or email me: pen dot drawing (the dot is a period) at gmail.com.

I gotta say, if gag writers want to,you know,  actually get some more work, they might try getting a website or a blog, or going on Facebook or twitter. Looking online for 45 minutes, I could find only one gagwriter with a  website, and the article about a guy has no email, no site, etc.

Thanks.
