One of the people Jeff was based on was HUGE into being Freemason. When Jeff started writing himself diffrent than I planned, the Lodge storyline no longer fit.

This is from 2008. Maybe we should be one of the people suing Pixar for 'Inside Out'. :D Of course then we could BOTH get sued by the creators of 'Herman's Head' I guess. :D

Once when interviewing people for a job I had someone pull a Homer Simpson and when asked his greatest weakness, actually answered with his real weaknesses.

This is what I found regarding amoeba breathing: "The cell membrane allows oxygen from the water the amoeba lives in to come into the cell and carbon dioxide to pass out of the cell. In this way, the amoeba "breathes." " Now you know.

I tried to avoid making animal puns in the last panel, but now I'm wondering what would be the best animal pun for Jack the Ripper. Jackass The Ripper? Jack Rabbit the Ripper? Jack the Rabbit-er? :D

I'm glad we stopped having Norm lay on a couch for therapy. I've never laid on a couch in therapy. Drunk in a furiture store? Multiple times, but never in therapy.
Also, I hear Steven Wright's voice coming out of Creativity in that last panel.

Up until this point, "My Cage" had been doing ok witht he number of papers. We lost 3 papers in Dec 2007. It was only 3, but I had a bad feeling. I wish it hadn't been right. :D

So...I think the reason the My Cage cast cameo in Slylock's comic was cancelled last minute was because our editor really wasn't paying attention. KFS had a lot to deal with though after our first editor. Jay Kennedy, passed away. Also, the weird/random bold printing was back last week as we had to work on these in advance to allow Bob Weber to get back to us on stuff. In closing, this was fun, Bob Weber is great, and I feel weird about posting on joshreads.com since the strip was cancelled, ...
