text: Growing up in Montreal, you always went to the Aislin cartoon first, then read Ted Blackman in Sports.  That's just the was it was.  While I have many, many recollections of his cartoons, the one that will never leave me is his rendition of the Quebec Separatist.  Picture a man with long, stringy hair, buck naked, and his body completely pretzelled so that his face is fully immersed in his behind.  Absolutely classic.  He always hit the mark.
