Currently, #37 on Substack’s Rising in Humor chart!
I wish I knew how this works? Is it just likes, comments or new paid subscribers (or a combination) which contributes to placing someone on the chart?
But, whatever the reason(s), I thank you all for enjoying my comedy!
It truly means a lot!

Dropped to #93 on Substack’s Rising in Humor chart, but the fact I’ve lasted three days in the top #100 blows my mind.
I couldn’t achieve this success without you—my subscribers and followers—when there’s so many others writing inspiring and gut busting funny humor on Substack.
Thank you!!

Arrived yesterday from Woody. As you can see, it’s inscribed to me… in invisible ink. It says:
“You give me a run for my money, you bastard.
Love you bubbelah,
Woody Allen.”
