John Wiley & Sons
John Wiley & Sons, Inc., also referred to as Wiley (NYSE: JW.A), is a global publishing company that specializes in academic publishing and markets its products to professionals and consumers, students and instructors in higher education, and researchers and practitioners in scientific, technical, medical, and scholarly fields. The company produces books, journals, and encyclopedias, in print and electronically, as well as online products and services, training materials, and educational materials for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education students.
Founded in 1807, Wiley is also known for publishing For Dummies. As of 2012, the company had 5,100 employees and a revenue of $1.8 billion.
History
Wiley was established in 1807 when Charles Wiley opened a print shop in Manhattan. The company was the publisher of such 19th century American literary figures as James Fenimore Cooper, Washington Irving, Herman Melville, and Edgar Allan Poe, as well as of legal, religious, and other non-fiction titles. Wiley later shifted its focus to scientific, technical, and engineering subject areas, abandoning its literary interests.
Wiley Miller
David Wiley Miller (born April 15, 1951, Burbank, California), an American cartoonist whose work is characterized by wry wit and trenchant social satire, is best known for his comic strip Non Sequitur, which he signs Wiley. Non Sequitur is the only cartoon to win National Cartoonists Society Divisional Awards in both the comic strip and comic panel categories, and Miller is the only cartoonist to win an NCS Divisional Award in his first year of syndication.
Editorial cartoons
A California native, Wiley studied art at Virginia Commonwealth University and worked for several Hollywood educational film studios before relocating to North Carolina in 1976 to work as an editorial cartoonist and staff artist for the Greensboro News & Record. Fenton (1982) was his first syndicated strip. In 1985, he was hired as an editorial cartoonist at the San Francisco Examiner.
Comic strips
In 1991, Wiley launched his popular Non Sequitur strip, eventually syndicated to 700 newspapers. In 1994, Miller pioneered the use of process color in comic strips, and developed a format in 1995 that allows one cartoon to be used in two different ways for both panel dimensions and strip dimensions.

Grim
by: WileyGrimb!, Grim! bell me grimble,.. grimble u find a choong girl u thinks it all blessed okay, shes got bumper and breats okay,
I don't rush tings when it's buff tings but fuck it they're all the same girls are girls it's okay.
I'm a star in the making uno, so it's not hard 2 get laid it easy, all you got do is be someone uno, everyday my name gets mention uno,
I mite link that grim on the regular, but I don't love that grim, uno twice a year I mite slam it, but we ain't gettin married, not me I'm cold uno, I'm the black double 0 7
It's not ready for me, I put cash before gash uno, I'm a rude boy uno, crossfire pull up to the yard like uno.
[Chorus:]
U got a new girl and she looks choong but u didn't know your girl was a grim,
Trus' me I know I'm wiley you know me blud it ain't a joke ting
U know I ain't joking blud I'll just leave it if I told you cause u wouldn't believe it
Your girl shes a grim I wouldn't have no grim as my ting.
One thing I'll never forget is if a girls buff shes already met like three thousand similar black boys
That wanna impress her with cars and toys,
I wanna try change her mind around so I'll take a different approach
But, if shes already been sent around like a zoot then I ain't feelin the roach but
Don't think I'll turn her down all that means that she not wifyable, I'll still get da one jook now
Don't try kiss me though fool I see it all, come on man I get gash
Don't try kiss my neck and move to my face you must think I'm a wasteman
I know where your lips ave been they can't touch my face.
[Chorus]
I used to see her all the time she was 5'9 light, skinny she was fine but grim,
Long hair green eyes, fat thighs, big breasts, big legs, she was nice and slim.
I think she was half nigerian and half cyprian, she was more than buff, but little did I know she was more then enough
For everyone, I thought I was exclusive, when she belld me I must of been stupid,
To think that I was the only one, but what can I say I was only young still, I learned I coulda got burnt
Could of been too late if I wouldn't of heard those two boys talkin down her road when
I was walkin to her house
