"Mr. Digby skillfully takes a well-known Benchley theme ('How to Sleep') and gives us a thoroughly enjoyable funny sequel that is both original and yet so in the style of Benchley that one can almost hear 'Sweet Old Bob' himself speaking the words."   

– DAVID TRUMBULL, Author, Humor Columnist, Chairman of the Robert Benchley Society, Boston, Mass. 

 

"The e-zine is funny.  Do you do all the writing yourself?  Your story about your son [performing with Dave Barry] made me laugh.  . . .  I've looked at the Sandbaggers website . . . How fun!  . . . You crack me up. . ."

– PAMELA TROEPPL, Humor Columnist and Author.

 

"You don't need me to say this stuff. Why don't you just make something up like everyone else does.  "

– DAVE BARRY, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Humor Columnist.

 

"Thank you so much for the laughs. You get me every time. . .  It's so wonderfully corrupting. . .  Great images. That ‘neighborhood borrowed from Philadelphia’ hits home. And it’s bang on. Marvelous place if some day you hope to live in an abandoned car."

"Dear SandBagger Mag-e-zine,  Put me on your subscription list . . . Do you have a URL for the Mag-e-zine I can link to?   I am the creator of the humor website and would like to add a link. . .  Horace J. Digby, you old bird!  Let me extend a hardy congratulation for your recent selection as winner of the Robert Benchley Humor Award."

"And he publishes the Sandbagger News, a monthly e-magazine that sometimes covers the local group of pranksters of that name. . .  The e-mag is 'frequently quite inaccurate—by design. . ."

– TOM PAULU, Arts and Entertainment, The Daily News.

 

"I like everything you do . . .  How many times have said that you are a great writer?  Not only are you a great writer but you will always be able to represent yourself should anyone accuse you of plagiarism.. . .  SandBagger Mag-e-zine is among the most progressive of any ‘news’ media . . . even better than the Santa Monica Evening Outlook, which I believe is celebrating 18 or more years of being out of circulation." 

– SKIP PIPER, Radio Personality, Seattle and Los Angeles. . . 

 

"Horace J. Digby belongs in radio . . . You’ve got everybody here laughing so hard they can’t work."

"Well done . . . Digby strikes again . . .  What a literary style! . . .  I'm glad you had the caveat, 'Don't believe everything you read' ...  You should change [it] to 'Don't believe anything you read, see or hear... especially in an election year!' . . .  Keep up the good work."
