Steve, the Insensitive Reindeer Trip

No, But Seriously Izzy Higdon

Don't even talk to me about the plurality of “we” unless you're conjoined at the uterus with somebody.

If you haven’t guessed--and, quite frankly, how could you

not have--today marks a precise 89 years since the public

debut of The Great Gatsby and its titular character, James

Gatz. Not to spoil the ending for anyone, but the novel’s

penultimate word is “the.” Another morsel of trivia is that

F. Scott Fitzgerald was named after his [albeit distant]

cousin, Francis Scott Key, author of the US national anthem.

Some talents must run in families. Also: names.

Other things that run in families are comics. If you would

like to join the family of The Drawing Board, please send

your application in comic form to CPO 100 or leah.doty14

@houghton.edu. There is a vacant position under the strip

title Reasons to Sleep Just One More Tiny Minute.

Unattainably,

Leah
