When Dilbert first appeared in syndication, I worked for a corporate engineering company – so, worst of both worlds. Dilbert, as you might imagine, was an instant hit.
I wrote Scott Adams a fan letter. Fan email. It was obvious he wasn’t used to it and didn’t quite know what to do. He wrote back. “Thanks. My agent has the same first name as you.”
lol
Uncle Al takes the Dead Pool with Scott Adams, and we are all sad. See you Friday!

I always liked his rule for framing your beliefs:
Does it make you happy?
Does it help you predict the future?
If both are true, then it’s worth considering. Thanks Scott.

Scott’s agent was named Sloaty? What a coincidence.

According to the Left, he’s in H E -double toothpicks for merely asking why 17% of the smoke alarms make almost all of the chirps.
I doubt it.
