Have you ever run across your Boston ancestor Francis W. Dahl? He did a cartoon in the Herald in the 1940s. Totally different world, but he had the same knack you do for riffing on ordinary stuff and making it feel like life, but more fun. My dad bought a couple of books of his cartoons. They were tucked away with a bunch of other books in the colonial style china cabinet that lived in our half-finished basement bathroom. (Hey, when you move you gotta put things where they fit.) They gave me hours of bathroom reading pleasure — because they were funny, but especially because they let you feel exactly what day-to-day life felt like in that impossibly remote time. May your work aspire to such esteem among the kids of 2050. (Check this link http://books.google.com/books/about/Dahl_s_Boston.html?id=T0CLMKqrD2QC. I could see Page 64 coming from a 1940s Yankee you.) Keep it real, and keep it zany.
