"By Friday evening dozens of bloggers had chimed in. The attacks are brutal. One blogger wrote: "Sue him for all he's worth, plus 1 cent. Then he'll be your slave forever." Others called for Goldman's head." I like how she mentions the stupid stuff that was said, but none of the intelligent stuff. "The flap could boost his career. In Goldman-like fashion he is now selling T-shirts of the original design on his Web site." This makes it sound like Kelly is just trying to cash in on this.

I’ll just say that the Daily Grind Contest would’ve defintely been much the poorer without the contributions of Mr. Grug and Mr. Sorocuk, both of them Aussie by nature.

And lo and behold, not only did they love it (duh), but the one kid in my class who wouldn't pick up a pencil for the life of him (he's autistic and it's actually in his file to accommodate him by writing what he speaks) filled in strip after strip. It truly was amazing.

After all, he's just a talentless, child-minded hack whose parents never taught him that it's wrong to steal How else is someone so obviously lacking in imagination going to make the money he clearly deserves from hours of scouring the internet, finding things that aren't really in the pulic eye but good enough for people to buy them? He's not even smart enough to have one response for this accusation, I've seen at least 3 contradicting ones. Pity the stupid, spoiled, lost child.
