The man...

The man who went to bed before midnight awakes fresh as a daisy, dresses and sets out for his San Diego appointment with his agent.
The man who wore lampshades when they were in fashion is safe in the knowledge that he was not seen riding on the hood of an automobile at three in the morning, and that no photos will appear to embarrass him.

I thought that was you we saw riding home from San Diego! Well, at least you weren't being smooched by Jonathan Ross or Neil Gaiman.

Eddie, it was great seeing you again at Con. The "wee lad" is as tall as you are if not taller! After leaving Top Shelf, I saw Black Diamond Detective Agency in more than one booth AND hit the local comic shop on the way home and they had finally restocked it.

Ah! I wasn't aware that such drunken wearing of lampshades was ever considered to be "in fashion". Apparently I was mistaken.

My personal experience being around drunks is that rather than wearing lampshades, some opt to wear nothing at all!
For three hours.
Walking through the house.
Putting books in the microwave.
Hugging people.
That was an interesting learning experience for me.

Ironically, I imagine at some point you'll make those pictures yourself, sealing your embarrassment in the annals of art history. But it'll be a great comic.
