And it’s about time.

Cartoon by Lambert-King

It was bound to happen. I’ve been cranking material on pretty much a daily basis for close to a couple years now. Fame and fortune were sure to follow. And that’s what happened.

It seems like dual Fs, fame and fortune closely follow one another. In my case, first came fame, and then came fortune. And they came via email.

First came fame

I recently was informed that somebody I didn’t know had nominated me for inclusion in, “Who’s Who in America.” No doubt I had an influential admirer amidst my dozens of readers.

Was it my witty humor articles that got their attention? My life tips? My expert sports analysis? Or the fact that I was on their email list? I’ll let you decide. I’m far too modest. But wait, there’s more!

I can actually increase my level of fame based on how much on want to invest in the placement of my biography. And if I invest enough, I can be like Wyatt Earp in that TV theme song:

Long live his name, and long live his glory

And long may my story be told.

Depending on what tier of investment I want to make.

Ah, but also came fortune. It came in the form in an email from Nigeria.

I’ll soon have my $18 million

You probably don't know my name, but have likely seen my work. I've written for numerous syndicated cartoon strips and my gags have appeared in national pubs.
