(172) Murphy's Manor - Humor in the Age of AIDS

I took the job of writing gay comix pretty seriously--like I was some kind of crusader who should gild the philosophic pill.  AIDS hit Toledo hard.  My friends were dying.  Is there truly humor in all things,  Mr Gilbert?

It seemed at the time that I was slow to respond. Even so, my early AIDS cartoons refer to "HTLV". 

Eventually I found ideas. First premise: Jeff would not be Jeff if he gave up sex.
