SOME GOOD . . .

The brilliant De Adder nails us again... He understands our quirks, our boasts, our foibles, our hopes, our insecurities. He employs his always pointed — and fully loaded — pen to make us laugh at ourselves, and to allow others to laugh with us. Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the boy is some good!
