Description of Pictures: Richard Thompson & Keith Knight:
Richard Thompson -- Cul De Sac Golden Treasury (Andrews McMeel, $16.99), and
Keith Knight -- The Knight Life (Grand Central, $17.99).
In conjunction with the Small Press Expo (September 11-12 at the Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center), we’re delighted to host two artists who excel at contemplating the minutiae of everyday life and making it hilarious. Thompson’s strip is focused on a loveable family in a suburban development, while Knight’s is told through the eyes of a city dweller.
The speakers were introduced by Mike Giarratano, events manager for Politics and Prose.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

23. RTKK2_100909_027.JPG: The Oregonian October 19, 1998 Keith Knight xxx Dear Mr. Knight; Thank you for sending samples of "The K Chronicles." I found them interesting. IN A FAMILY NEWSPAPER? ARE YOU NUTS? We've gone a long way since we first put Matt Groening's "Life in Hell" in The Oregonian, but I do not think we have gone as far as "The K Chronicles." Well, maybe we have, but I think a lot of the readers haven't, so the result is the same: Thanks, but not right now. It is fun, though, and I would love to have a comic that makes people talk. "The K Chronicles" would certainly do that. Again, thanks. Sincerely, Richard C. Johnson

86. RTKK2_100909_253.JPG: Dialog Something something Something else Blah blah Punchline TK here First we draw a "rough sketch" for the editor to inspect. Editors are inattentive & credulous, so we can keep the sketch pretty basic. Note: "TK" means "to come", as in "the punchline is to come later." This buys you time to think up a gag or to remember an old one you thought was funny. Then you just fill in the balloons.

91. RTKK2_100909_277.JPG: Make the Pie Higher by George W. Bush I think we all agree, the past is over. This is still a dangerous world. It's a world of madmen And uncertainty And potential mental losses. Rarely is the question asked is our children learning? Will the highways of the internet Become more few? How many hands have I shaked? This misunderestimate me. I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity. I know that the human being and the fish can coexist. Families is where our nation finis hope.
