Mr. Myers is 81 and, as of this coming April, will have been doing Broom-Hilda for half a century. Quite an impressive achievement. More power to him…although if he wanted to take a break now and then, I couldn’t fault him.
The real truth for most creative people is that creating is one of our greatest happinesses. It’s also pretty dang addictive. When the happiness is drained away and the finances just aren’t there to keep us moving forward, we stop.

Don’t ever quit, Russ! Broomie and the gang are like family. Of course, that’s me being selfish. You do what’s right for you. (Sob!)

I’ve been reading Broom Hilda since 1973 (I was a junior in high school). A heartfelt Thank You for all the laughs!
