Joe Bavone

Beloit, WI

From my sketchbook:

Joe Bavone is a time-traveling poet, making this work semi-autobiographical. He is also a terrible plagiarist, making it more biographical than autobiographical, having been copied entirely from the opus of Stephen Grover Cleveland.

He cites among his influences such notable persons as Charles Dickens, Alexandre Dumas, Mark Beyer, Franz Kafka, Eugene Ionesco, and that guy who shouts at squirrels in Hyde Park, but none of these people will admit they know him or will acknowledge that he was with them last Tuesday, making them all terrible alibis.

He has an extreme fondness for coffee and cheese sandwiches, which is the only reason he even liked The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series. His ultimate dream is to open a Dragon Tattoo Internet Café that serves only coffee, cheese sandwiches, and justice in the form of hacking into the off-shore bank accounts of n’er-do-wells and diverting their funds into his own secret (and hopefully more secure) accounts.

He is internationally celebrated as the greatest man who has ever lived or who will ever live, which hopefully takes the pressure off the rest of you.

You’re welcome.

		Joe Bavone about 1 month Thank you both - it was an experience. I think next time I might try to spend a little more on the drawing... and maybe make only a BAD story instead of the worst!
		Kevin Maginnis 3 months Wanted to see who else picked that theme. You really ran with it. Great worst story. Feed your cat.
