Poll Position

Dear Readers of Rumcar News

Has anybody managed to decipher the cartoon? It is rather cryptic. One person at least should be able to.

The secret is to start from right to left.

Have fun

I don't get it...

I understand it, but I dont see the connection between the drawing copying itself, but once I understand I'm sure its funny :)

Dear Readers

A big clue
The figure is Alfred Hichcock, and could be mistaken for Alan Hichcock.    The image has many clues to Alfred Hichcock films like the raven and the bathroom, but what is the car? or the significance of the saying?

It has been an interesting experiment and I promise I will not try another cryptic cartoon on you guys again.
