How does one connect the two greatest writers of the last 50 years? Here's how: Kurt Vonnegut was in Back to School with Rodney Dangerfield, who was in Natural Born Killers with Woody Harrelson, who was in Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor.

“Even though Billy’s train wasn’t moving, its boxcars were kept locked tight. Nobody was to get off until the final destination. To the guards who walked up and down outside, each car became a single organism which ate and drank and excreted through its ventilators. It talked or sometimes yelled through its ventilators, too. In went water and loaves of black-bread and sausage and cheese, and out came shit and piss and language.”
Ok so I find myself reading your comic each week. I really enjoy it. Hope school is going well. I am extremely tired of it that I am leaving for florida for a week on Friday.
