Last week, monologist Mike Daisey [link] was doing his one man show when a group of high school students got up and left, due to the language of the show.  One of the administrators, instead of quietly leaving, stepped over the line and poured water all over Daisey's original hand written notes.

Here's the video. [link]

Daisey claims they were warned about the language. [link]

The high school claims they were not. [link]

Regardless, I find the actions of the man in the video bone-chilling and the look upon Daisy's face as some hateful member of the audience destroys his work, is truly heartbreaking.

In other news....

Josh Howard presents: SASQUATCH, [link] an anthology about everyone's favorite myth monster, hits the stands today with a 7 page story by my wife and I.

This sucker is 256 pages with 27 stories by some of the best new talent in the comic biz.  If you can't find it in stores, you can purchase it here.[link]

Also check out this really nice review by Comic Addiction [link] that highlights our story along with David Hartman, Christopher Graybill and Josh Howard.

Thanks!!!

The good thing about the incident is lots of people who had never heard of Mike Daisey before (me included) now know of his work. He's pretty funny.

Huh...

That sucks. Hopefully they'll get some soon. O_O

I think they are still offering it on the Viper site, but it's an extra $5 for shipping. [link]
