i'm an idiot. i've been carrying around a return letter all week! it's got stamps and everything. it's gotten to the point where i almost feel i have to redo the letter to make it more substantial. you should enjoy your obscurity for the brief amount of time it will continue to exist. seriously, if you want to do anything under the radar, you better do it fast.
Hey Buddy! Listened to the Channels CD recently and got hit by a super powerful wave of nostalgia about NYU, Stack & Stack, and such. Time for my semi-annual "How the fuck is Rob?" messages. Rob, you motherfucker, how the fuck are you? I miss ya buddy. I am on spring break for the next week and a half. I am doing good. Still in grad school, etc. We need to hang sometime in the somewhat near future. KeEp It REEeEAaaaLlLl! -Dante
your weekly has changed a lot, yet you're still calling them comics. any ideas? i like the new one. like the cheezits one, extremely flat. perfect. any plans on the horizon for print?
Hey, Shorty. It's your birthday. I am acknowledging that its your birthday. Look back in horror like its your birthday. Because we ain't getting younger, we just keep getting older and older and older until the ice cold hand of the reaper clasps us around the throat like Hulk Hogan and choke slams us into the grave to be forgotten, and rot.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!! I miss and love ya buddy. -geoff
Oh it's alright I guess. I kicked off my arrival with a textbook case of poison Ivy and a trip to the hospital once it reached infection. The poison drove me a little crazy which indirectly led me to shaving my head with a size 1 clipper. Momentary relief came afterwards and then promptly left.
i am sharing some of your work with my kids. i hope that's ok. and i'm telling them that even though your famous now, you were once a humble day student.
Well obviously I think your comics are pretty rad. I especially liked the Pocahontas one.
