Recently, I Love Nerd York City posted a great Steve Lake card (remember the guy with the bird on his shoulder?) and speculated as to whether or not the ultra-literal “funny” cards that I made in my younger days included a Steve Lake card, seeing as how Mr. Lake’s last name is also a noun.

The name rang a bell and, searching through my stack of “funny” cards, I found one that I had made featuring Mr. Lake. I’m sure you can guess what it looks like. I hope Mr. Lake brought his hipwaders to the ballpark that day.
