Published Works
Adams has published five collections of his The Straight Dope columns, and Zotti has published a children's collection in The Straight Dope style entitled Know It All. Adams' columns are archived at the Straight Dope website. In 1996, the A&E Network briefly aired a show hosted by comedian Mike Lukas based on the column also called The Straight Dope.
Over 600 articles have been posted to the site's online archive; some of these contain multiple questions-and-answers. Also included with the columns are quirky illustrations. Slug Signorino, in addition to a successful commercial art career, has been the regular illustrator for The Straight Dope for the past twenty years. In his illustrations, Cecil Adams is often depicted as a large turkey wearing a mortar board.

Famous quotes containing the words published and/or works:
“What has influenced my life more than any other single thing has been my stammer. Had I not stammered I would probably ... have gone to Cambridge as my brothers did, perhaps have become a don and every now and then published a dreary book about French literature.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
“The hippopotamus’s day
Is passed in sleep; at night he hunts;
God works in a mysterious way—
The Church can sleep and feed at once.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
