I created the comic Mom's Cancer, which won the 2005 Eisner Award for Best Digital Comic and was published by Abrams in 2006. Other honors included the 2007 Harvey Award for Best New Talent and the 2007 German Youth Literature Prize. My second book, Whatever Happened to the World of Tomorrow?, released by Abrams in June 2009, was nominated for several Eisner and Harvey awards and won the American Astronautical Society's 2009 Emme Award for Best Young Adult Literature. I'm grateful.

A Rhapsody of Thanks
With tomorrow marking Thanksgiving Day in the U.S., I reflect on all for which I am truly most thankful: family, friends, health, work, and this:
It's got nothing to do with the holiday. I'm just thankful. .
That was priceless. I like how they handled the morbid parts of the song (replacing them with silliness). Have you seen the original video? The muppet version mocks it perfectly. p.s. I was a kid when the original song was popular. I remember listening to it on the radio and wondering what the heck was going on.
Namowal: Yeah, I know the original, which definitely adds value to the parody, and also wondered how the Muppets would handle triggers and such. Nicely done.
