Great essay. I did not know you animated Donald waking up--terrific animation, so much fun business, I totally enjoyed this! I also enjoyed your interview at Walt's Oasis podcast. Thanks for the mention. Great interview--you are so well-spoken, and you have a fascinating history.

Thankfully these days the NCS has come a long way from pageant sashes. The abovementioned Karen Evans is the current President and is doing great things for the Org.

I think the Gannett decision is yet another woeful misjudgement by a myopic room of dusty old morons who just want to double-down on their dwindling subscribership, ensuring the inevitable demise of the newspaper comic strip. It's very sad, but it's the way things have happened. I wish it were different.

I can't quit drawing, either...on my deathbed my hand will probably be the last thing to stop moving.
