WE HAVE A NEW LOOK!

Surprise! Tinbox Acres is NOT written by a Sterno-drinking hick in a dusty, rundown trailer park. It's published by a mischievous midget.

~~~~~~~ Q&A ~~~~~~~ ASK THE EDITOR ~~~~~~~ Q&A ~~~~~~~

Q: Why do you write this stuff?
A: Because it's funny.

Q: Are you NUTS?
A: Yes.

Q: You ain't really a midget, are you?
A: Actually, I missed midgetdom by an inch.

Q: Are you married?
A: Nope.

Q: Will you marry me?
A: Hell, no. Get real.

Q: Are you Midge in space #36?
A: No. I'm the editor in space #34.

Q: How did you think all this crazy shit up in the first place?
A: Got stuck in a dumpy trailer park out in the middle of nowhere for a while.

Q: Are Tinbox Acres characters based on real people, and if so, who?
A: Insane friends and relatives mostly, and buckwild neighbors from that trailer park.

Q: Where can I find that trailer park you used to live in?
A: 15682 Grand Avenue, Lake Elsinore, California. I used to live in space #34. The mobilehome I lived in ended up destroyed in squalor and catpiss after I moved out, and the maintenance guy had to rip it out by the roots. A travel trailer sits in its place now.

Q: You're shitting me, right?
A: Nope. And those ratty looking folks you see in that dump really were my neighbors.

Q: No way no how you fit into that trailer park. How did you keep from going bonkers?
A: Hung out in trailers, interviewed the neighbors, and wrote humor about it.

Q: That's IT?That's all you gotta do to write something as funny as Tinbox Acres, is to live in a trailer park out in the middle of nowhere for a while, and talk to the neighbors?

A: Uh, not exactly. I also was a law enforcement transcriptionist. I typed police reports and victim/witness/suspect police interviews for years. When you wear a headset and listen to some trailerpark dipshit get interrogated by the cops for hours and hours while typing everything that was said, eventually you get to where you can write in the suspect's voice.

Q: What is normal to you?
A: Normal is just something everyone is until you get to know them a little better.

Q: Does this thing make y'all a shitpile of money?
A: Nope.

Q: Then why do you write this stuff?
A: Because it's FUNNY. Plus, we're all NUTS, remember?
