long time reader of the feed, also read the deadspin interview. don't have a question, just wanted to thank you for your desire to keep Karl 'authentic'. when I first heard about the upcoming book I wondered how this was all going to play out for this fictitious character. would he loose his appeal upon on the advent of being exposed to the masses in another medium? would he "sell out" so to speak? you've thoroughly quelled my concerns--the feed is as great as ever, the way you've handled the promotion and release of the book as Karl has been flawless, in my opinion. thanks for maintaining that creative integrity and authenticity. I would imagine I speak for a lot of long time fans when I say we really appreciate that.

this is heartbreaking to read. I wish I knew you in person so I could help in some way. all I can say is this: fill your time with healthy hobbies, exercising, running, hiking, biking, music, art, etc. during periods in my life of intense depression, I can say with no hesitation, these are the things that kept me alive. don't give up buddy.

how will this new album prepare me to deal with the crazy mixed up higgledy-piggledy world we're now living in?

I could really use a pick-me-up right now, pal.
