"The Kieths Interview Themselves (Since nobody else will)"
by Sam and Kathy Kieth
(Originally published The Maxx #32, September 1997; reproduced by Chris Caughey)

SAM: Hey--what's goin' on here?!?

KATHY: Well... while I'm typing Maxx Traxx and Head to Head, I thought I might as well type myself into the book.

S: Why now and not before?

K: Aw gee-- it's your book. You thunk it up, you draw it, you write it. I don't wanna just be suckin' off your fame...

S: Horse pucky! You've been with me for almost 20 years--married for 15. You deserve a purple heart for that alone! Besides, Head to Head was your idea in the first place, and you still sort it and type it...

K: And misspell names...

S: You organize all the fan mail for me to read, type Maxx Traxx, proof it when it's ready to print--

K: And misspell names and lose addresses...

S: Help Ronna lay out the schedule for every issue, pay the bills, get on my butt when I'm falling behind--

K: ...daily...

S: And now, since Issue 30, you type my scripts to send to the letterer, and proof 'em when they're done.

K: And misspell names...

S: Get OVER it! People misspell "Kieth" all the time.

K: Yeah-- but now they won't be able to email us if they do! So what else do you have to say about me, now that I'm out of the closet?

S: Well, I think your new title, "Head Gardener," is perfect. You've always thought Maxxheads were wise and witty and well-worth "cultivation". And, on a good day, you take all the sh*t I hand you and compost it into pure gold.

K: Yeah, then the rest of the year we scream and pout like every other couple. Weren't Mickey and Dude about us?

S: Naw--don't look for parallels there...well...not too many...

K: It's true--I did throw away my "Safety Bob" several weeks ago. But as for your crayons...

S: Very funny.
