(76) A Cartoon Character in Search of a Voice

Mark Varady, Murf's lover (as we said in those days) was a grad student in Engineering. Considering that I am a Civil Engineer who had graduated with a master's degree it seemed like kind of an .. incestuous (if that's the word for it) romance at the time.

Broadway fan that I am, I recognized Mark as a placeholder for "my someone." Eventfully Mark grew to be more John-like.

But here he is simply a techno-nerd.
