Photographer, recovering attorney, 4x Jeopardy champion, fabulous cook, widow of writer Len Wein.
I’ve lost count of how many copies of Melissa Clark’s Dinner: Changing the Game, Toni Tipton-Martin’s Jubilee, and Yotem Ottolenghi’s Simple I have given away. My copies are filled with tabs and notes. For Italian. I’d go for Marcella Hazan’s Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking.

You might ask Walt, since he is still around to answer, but I expect Len did let him know what he wanted in each frame. Len was trained as a visual artist because he wanted to be a comic book artist from the time he was about 8. He just happened to have more talent as a writer.

Len Wein was very proud of this little story, and Shultz apparently liked it, too. Great artwork by Walt.

You have to be kidding about supporting this dino with dollsrs.

The 🍊🐖 ruined his own life. He did not need Jeffrey Epstein’s help to be a racist conman.

Breaking a caffeine habit is a true nightmare. My sympathies.

A 50 year mortgage does NOT lower costs for consumers, it vastly increases the amount of interest paid for a house. That’s your lede, NY Times. Stop sucking up to the 🍊🐖 conman in the White House.

It used to be AmEx.

About the only time I’ve been to a movie in the past few years is when I am invited to a premier. It’s just prohibitively expensive and they show up on streaming so soon anyway.

Definitely not.

That’s the question I want to hear asked of any 🍊🐖 apologist. “Would you leave him alone with your 13 year old daughter/sister/niece/granddaughter?”

He looks illiterate. But billionaires can do whatever they want.

I suppose I should mention that I live just outside of Santa Fé, New Mexico.

Melinda Snodgrass posted some spectacular shots as well from outside of Santa Fe. Magical.

Hugh told me I’d be happy. I cried at the premier. How Len would have loved that moment.

He’s a racist moron, you are a hero and role model. Keep up the good work.
