11.17.99 ...Some of the most positive feedback I have received came from these two Larry Sabato cartoons. Mr. Sabato called me afterwards and we had an interesting conversation, mostly dealing with how I was going to get hurt if I ever put him in a comic again (he was joking of course, I think...).

12.1.99 ...Super Mario Kart for the Super Nintendo is the best two-player video game ever made. Whenever my band takes breaks we usually end up playing this game, Tetris Attack or Bomberman. I am the "Self Proclaimed King Of The Strays." All that lingo can be attributed to Don Simpson and Jeff Chin. And not too many people know about my dark video game past...(in other words, DO NOT look at the February 1995 Nintendo Power or the March 1995 GamePro).
