 == Irony & HairyWombat == 

  

 Dear HairyWombat,  

 Thank you kindly for taking the time to give me further instructions.  The short 
 article I am listing is not about me, but about my work (over the past 14 years).  

 My instructions were to write in a more neutral tone, and; not about myself.  

 I am fine on both accounts.  

 I am not certain how to write (in anything but a neutral manner) that my cartoons, 
 Londons Times Cartoons has been the #1 ranked offbeat cartoon (and offbeat cartoons) on 
 Google since 2005.  It is very easily provable.  Simply type in ""offbeat cartoon"" and/or 
 ""offbeat cartoons"" onto google and you'll see mine ""Londons Times"" is #1, #2, #3 and  
 saturates most the page.  My offbeat cartoon gifts; about 1/4 of a million of them now,  
 (can be verified by www.3drose.com) our main manufacturer have also been #1 ranked since 
 2005 and, if you type in Londons Times Cartoons you'll see my giftsare carried by Sears,  
 Amazon and numerous other major chains.  ref: 3drose@3drose.com  You can also see  
 a large inventory of my products on their site; but mostly at associate partners at Amazon 
 and Sears etc.  My books are at Barnes & Noble, Amazon.etc.  

 To see the length of time, Wayback Machine, I'm guessing will have it archived, Google.com surely 
 does; in any case, if the length of time is unprovable (or too timely to prove) it is very simple 
 to see who is ranked #1 now simply by typing it into the search engine.  

 I have been on my birth city page (just my name) and that I am a cartoonist on Wiki for  
 about 2 years or so. 

 It is hard to talk about any artistic venture, I know, without sounding like a pr agent 
 or whatever.  

 The great irony (I love irony too) is that I was only doing it as a hobby while I was back 
 home in rural Ms taking care of an ill parent.  It was never meant for public consumption; and, 
 I was able to quit my day job; more irony, my loving parents who I cherished, always told me ""Don't 
 quit your day job"": and both died right before the cartoons became well-known.  C'iest La Vie. My 
 wife strokes my ego now and again for a job well done.  

 Thanks again in advance for a possible second chance. 

 Sincerely, 

 Rick London"
