I’m in an internet cafe somewhere in New York City where there’ a lot of Japanese restaurants. Cool!! I’m in town for some very special neatness that will be revealed to you all soon enough. But in the meantime, let us hope and pray that the Yankees go down in flames (but not without a fight…Gotta tire out Cleveland for the series with the Red Sox)

*AIN’T IT A PLEASURE TO BE BOSTON SPORTS FAN RIGHT NOW?
Sox. Patriots. Heck..the Celtics?!! I got friends back east complaining because their kids are growing up spoiled with all these good teams now. Whaddaya expect? Boston fans gotta complain about something.

*YES, YES, Y’ALL AND YA DON’T STOP (SPX THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND..)
I expect to see many faces at the wondrous SPX 2007 at the North Bethesda Marriott Hotel this weekend. I always enjoy SPX because there ain’t a lotta distractions to take away from the event. It’s just creators and comix fans. I always have a good time at it. Look for me right next to my Cartoonist with Attitude Brethren and Sistren near one of the doors and against the wall..

And come see our CWA slideshow at the Barnes and Noble in Bethesda this thursday at 7pm.

*WILL I BE HOSTING THE IGNATZ THIS YEAR?
Some of you may recall that I was a last minute replacement as host of the Ignatz awards that take place at SPX. After making fun of most of the audience and special honored guest Harvey Pekar, I made the winners and presenters drink shots of tequila and left the stage in a drunken stupor. Why haven’t they asked me to host again?

*WEST HOLLYWOOD BOOKFAIR WRAP-UP…
Thanks to all who came by to say hello at the WHBF. It was a swell time and a good opportunity to meet my L.A. readers. I also got to hang out with some really cool local cartoonists, Christian and Llyn. Of course, I am spacing on their last names now so I can’t link to them at the moment.

*HAVE YOU READ MY COMICS JOURNAL INTERVIEW YET?
Pretty snazzy!! Thank you Andrew Farago for the inquiries. This ish of the Journal is one of the neatest I’ve seen in a while. I just wish they used a bit more of my recent K Chronicles. A lot of the strips were taken from my first book, Dances with Sheep.

Ciao!!
