I'm happy to report that my colleague and friend
Mark Fiore has won a Pulitzer prize for his animated cartoons... thanks to me. You see, last week I referred to my Aronson award as a "Cool Pulitzer," since the Pulitzer committee has displayed, shall we say, very conventional taste for the past couple decades. I had a feeling that my use of the term "Cool Pulitzer" might jinx things, and sure enough, it did -- now I can't use it anymore! Congrats to Mark, and also to my pal
Matt Wuerker, who was a finalist.
