Herb and Jamaal by Stephen Bentley for October 12, 2023

My signature already looks terrible with pen and paper.

The worst are the ones you have to sign with a finger.

And I figure that’s a good thing, Jamaal.

I always comment that the signature would never stand up in court. Sometimes they smile. A little.

Sadly, my e-signature looks better than my real one.

Yeah, Jamaal. That’s because of the lack of tactile surface feel and tension on the plastic screen, compared to paper.

You’re certainly right about that, Jamal.
