*EMAILS OF THE WEEK!!
(Concerning the April Fools/Thomas Dolby strips:)
Keith,

Hey, I just got finished reading your April fools K Chronicles strip. I loved the premise. And I can totally see some right-winger arguing with you about Bush being bad for the country.. because I’ve got right-wing friends myself who have for years hated the lack of -financial- conservativism they see in Bush. I just think it’s funny that you were able to use all the talking points as you did.

Anyway, I’m writing because I want to thank you for your strip a few weeks ago, on Thomas Dolby. I’ve been a Dolby fan for decades, but have never actually had the opportunity to see him live. I also recently moved to the SF Bay Area (east bay) from western Massachusetts, but did not hear about that show you mentioned last month. So I did a web search, found Dolby’s home page, and realized that he is playing again in SF in April, at the Independent. I’ve got tickets, and I’m thrilled to finally be seeing him.

So thanks for pointing out your experience to all your readers, through your strip, because otherwise I probably would not have heard about Dolby’s tour.

Dear Keith Knight,

So I’m sitting here, banging my head against my drawing table preparing for
APE. And I thought, ‘what better way to waste what valuable time I have to
prepare than to write a fan letter to Keith Knight?’

Now I know there isn’t a gnat’s fart’s chance in Hell that you’ll respond.
Because we all know that you’re hotter and more famous than Ben Aflleck, Matt
Damon, Spike Lee and Halle Berry combined! But what the hell, what does
it take to write a letter thanking you for a million laughs and the (more
than occasional) moments of percing insight?

Apparently 5 minutes is the answer..
