We won't blow her cover, but this was written by an angsty singer-songwriter 

Dear Dig,It makes perfect sense that not one of the bands you picked has any sincerity to them (Local Music Issue, 6.4.08). God help us if we find/see/enjoy/feel sincerity. No, the Dig is much too "cool" for that. Irony is in. All the bands you chose are indie hipster bullshit that, in a few years, no one will have ever heard of. Have some courage Digfolk, and take notice of some of the people in this town that are not skinny-pants wearing hipsters just like you.ANONYMOUS

Not so secret love

Hey Tak,

I have been a reader of your comics for about two years now. I just wanted to let you know that your comics make me think about the world around me sometimes, and I always have a good laugh as well. Your comic is just one of the reasons I read the Weekly Dig.

Keep up the good work.

I love your comics! They rock!

My geography teacher was talking about how diversity and discrimination are something people know about, but don't want to talk about. I agree. People are afraid to put out their opinions and their feelings on the matter for fear of disagreement.

But when I read just one of your comic strips, I totally agreed.

I love your comics. Keep up the good work!

Dear Mr. Toyoshima,

Once again your strip is so relevant to my own life! I am not about to be laid off like your comic's hero Sam is, but I am facing a life-changing possibility that could lead to the levels of anxiety poor Sam is suffering at the moment.

Fortunately, I've lived the last 10 or so years of my life as if there is a God who actually cares what happens to people, and I've always had a place to land, one way or another, in that time even when things came down to the wire and looked very bad for me. A solution always seems to be available, even at the last minute. So I am not worrying like poor Sam, this time around. I'm praying instead. In Sam's little world, YOU are his Creator, and I'm sure you, too, will find a solution for our hero.

Once again, keep those strips coming, please! This particular strip delights me every day with its simplicity, its insights and its plain old-fashioned cuteness! Every little light helps make others' lives a little lighter. Thank you!
