I had the massive honour of being asked to give a cover quote for the soon-to-be-released book, Akhmed and the Atomic Matzo Balls. I was given a sneak peek of the cover art (still a work in progress) today and read my praise for this politically incorrect work of comic genius and thought, “It’s probably a good thing that Gary’s new book isn’t coming out until after my trip to the Middle East, as I wouldn’t want to have such an infamous association at a time when I’m going to be smuggling my grandmother’s remains while using a passport that has been red flagged by Canadian Immigration.”
