One of our own (other than Wil) mentioned on Slashdot... what a glorious day. In the review of Wil's first book, we find this gem "Cartoon illustrations provided by Ben A. Claassen III are an excellent complement to the casual essays."
Did you hear that? Our little Ben draws excellently! We knew it all along. Seriously though... congrats Ben. Will you sign my girlfriends breasts?

Is there info about Ben in the comments? I just patiently read all of that dismal trekkie stuff looking for his name.

Bendependent [email] said at 10:03 PM 05-12-2003: Thanks guys. I'm pretty excited about all of this. I'm hoping that it will drive me to come out with my own book now.
And I'm also excited that Jenny posted. That kicks ass. Hello Jenny.
And for the record, the middle initial "A." is short for "Joseph".

angele [email] said at 6:24 PM 05-13-2003: But Ben's style isn't all evil and bad-looking. It's adorably cutsey, with a little bit of twisted sprinkled into it. If you get bad pirates and cowboys, you'll get the cutest bad wittle pirates and cowboys you ever saw.
