SALUTE
"I've been a fan of Dave Elston's for years, from his disheveled, scrunched-up hockey players, to his eccentric yet oddly endearing horses (ever notice how Elston's horses always look more intelligent than his hockey players?). As an Albertan, born and bred, I salute him for tackling the land of the prairie oyster and the Chinook headaches. Well done! (And for the record, page 72 That's absolutely true. I swear.)"
