Gary, great art, and thanks for the nice comment on my blog. It does seem some of the best comedy and best comics have very dark things lurking in their shadows. I guess this could be true of just about all kinds of artists, but we expect this darkness from poets, expressionist painters, and rock stars, but not as much from comedians. At least, this is the way I read this piece.
