Week after week, for years, Robarchek has cranked out his odd combination of low and high humor, mini-short stories, limericks, you name it, delighting or grossing out readers and winning awards out the wazoo. If you think that's easy to do, just try it. His editors keep him safely out of sight of readers for some reason (our guess is a mix of jealousy and spinelessness), but he still provides some of the city's most fun water cooler talk. -- John Grooms
