A Conversation I Had Last Thursday, Done in the Style of "Death to the Extremist"

Me at Chris Turner’s book launch.

While at the launch for Chris Turner’s book, Planet Simpson,

I ran into Samantha, who was one of the people who decided to hop into

the Hot Tub Truck when it was parked outside Lee’s Palace after the

White Cowbell Oklahoma concert. It was during this encounter with the

Hot Tub Truck that I booked it for my 2003 birthday party.

(Here are two entries on the event, and you might want to check out the

photo album — there’s an album version and a slideshow version.)

I was feeling inspired after having been contacted by M. Zole, author and illustrator of one of my favourite webcomics, Death to the Extremist. I’ve decided to blog the conversation with Samantha in the form of a Death to the Extremist comic, shown below:

Sam does not look weird in the photo, she looks good. As for Luke Skywalker, here’s a profile shot, and here’s the dry-humping shot [some boy-and-girl-in-wet-clothes groping — may not be safe for your workplace].
