Green Monkeys has been running in Dan's Papers since that day in 1999, my mother, Betty, decided that Junior Kroll was done. Junior, a weekly story-poem, had been running since June 8th, 1990.

But that day, when I asked her where this week's episode was, surprised me. She told me she had said just enough of Junior, Honey Duff, Father Kroll

The US Open is upon us again in a few weeks. Here is my old sketchbook from 2004. I have more from 1986 but I have to find them.
