In January of 1968, I was ^surfing ̄ TV channels when I was caught by Funny Business, a show about cartoons. I had always wanted to be a(n) 36 but never knew how to go about it. I wrote to the host of the show, cartoonist Jack Cassady, asking him for advice 37 entering the profession.

A few weeks later, I got an encouraging 38 letter from Jack, 39 all of my specific questions. He went on to warn me of the possibility of being 40 at first, advising me not to get discouraged 41 that happened. He went further, saying the cartoon 42 I sent him were good and worthy of publication.

I got very 43 and submitted my best cartoons to Playboy and New Yorker. The magazines quickly rejected me with 44 little photocopied form letters. Frustrated, I decided to 45 cartooning.

In June of 1987, I was surprised to get a second letter from Jack Cassady. It  46 as follows:

^Dear Scott, I¨m dropping you this note to again encourage you to 47 your ideas to various publications. I 48 you lots of luck, sales and good drawing. ̄

I hadn¨t 49 thanked him for his first letter! Again, I dragged out my art brushes and set to 50 the sample strips(銭桟只鮫) now known as Dilbert. It finally became popular.

As Dilbert 51 more successful, I came to appreciate Jack¨s simple act of 52 .

How can you ever 53 a kindness like that? Just reach out to some person who badly needs encouragement and 54 it on. Do it for somebody who knows you have nothing to gain. There¨s no 55 thing as a small and great act of kindness.
