It&#8217;s because there&#8217;s usually a little bit of everything in there. You have poetry, gag strips, short stories and sketches, all bound together with obvious love. In this case I mean that almost literally, as it&#8217;s obvious that it took some serious time and dedication to put this book together. In here are some robots, bugs, aliens and an exploding statue. I know it sounds like a cop-out, but I really don&#8217;t like reviewing his books, as I&#8217;d much rather just sit back and let whichever issue I&#8217;ve just read wash over me.

If you&#8217;re looking for a start-to-finish story, well, Souther probably isn&#8217;t your man. If you don&#8217;t mind wandering a bit and appreciating whatever you get without placing preconceived notions on a book, then you couldn&#8217;t do any better than this guy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/emergency2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"274\" height=\"353\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website In Case of Emergency Only You know why I love Souther&#8217;s books?
