Fans can be strange.

SO when a fantasy ticks them off, they might want to strike back — for real …Which is why smart celebrities never reveal their real life address. You never know what kind of kooks might want to look you up.

of course, the problem these days in the Information Age is actually keeping your address secret. Enter your street address in Google some time, and see if the top ten hits don’t include a site that lists the name of the property owner, the folks who live there (like YOU), and the names of nearest neighbors.

Well, Robb, if you’re hearing from maniacs, I’m sorry. You’re one of the most talented cartoonists working today. Great artist, outstanding dialog, well-developed characters that we care about, and some deep, important themes. Keep doing what you do.
