Here’s a clip from the 2011 Webby Awards, when Egyptian filmmakers Mohamed Diab and Amr Salama, who is also a noted blogger, got a Special Recognition award for representing the people of Egypt during the recent protests and eventual ousting of President Hosni Mubarak. The beautiful surprise that I received when I first saw this clip was that Diab is wearing a Mr. Fish t-shirt. Book-ending my day of personal triumph perfectly was the letter (an actual paper letter!) that I received in the mail from a fan who also found my work profoundly moving:
I like how they get the punctuation correct except for the word crasy.
I thought W. B. Yeats was dead. But here he is sending you a love poem. It’s very sweet!
I now have something to aspire to,,,,being castigated by the ignorant in non-cursive form.
Those are all the reasons why I love you. Couldn’t have written it better myself!
Looks to me like a Valentine from the Koch Brothers, Sarah Palin and Michele Bachman. You must be doing something right. Good on you. Good on your work.
Good on Mohamed Diab and good on you, Dwayne !…

Just goes to show that honest and popular do not go hand in hand.
Classic…! Keep Going Mr. Fish – You’re the Man…!!!!
Archie Bunker lives on through others…
Kinda lightens up at the finish line.
There’s always a star in bastard.
That is hilarious!
I like his penmanship. It’s very nice.
