I should have this 1:1 scale model of the Great Barrier Reef done by the weekend!

There, colored the hair upon request!

And, in case you think I'm crazy, I may not know what I'm talking about but I didn't make it up.

'Apparently being a post-human homosexual academic with a crush on your best friend in the 1920s got a little too lonely.' 'Really, my heart goes out to him.'

For the Aberrant and Adventure! fans. Check out Max's awesome mustache.

New Method to Current Lack of Madness

I will be doing the strips twice a week now. I actually have the 30th strip done, but had no internet (alternating with 1995-speeds internet) most of last week and this weekend.

Obviously, though, with the return of pretty much daily responsibilities I can't keep the "one a day" pace up. Twice a week is not going to be nearly as cool as the first leg of this was, and I think I'll miss is more than anyone else.

Still, twice a week! I'm thinking they'll be done on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Slowed Down

So, the return of law school classes are putting a quick break on things, but I won't be so easily defeated.

Here's the plan; I will make it to at least #35 by the end of this week and figure out the rest from there. This might be the point where I slow down to one or two a week, but I really do need to keep going. No worries!

I didn't do the whole "twin brother" thing, but I did once play three characters in a row in the same session.

If anything, the scams seemed more sophisticated back then.

Seriously, not much has changed... even Mr. Hartzell just stole and altered a scam that two other guys had been pulling on him!

What, you don't want to here the 30-minute version of the Juan joke?

Personally, I love groaners but not everyone is as appreciative.

Here, watch Norm MacDonald tell a joke about a moth!

'Time and Punishment' Look it up. I'll wait.

Funny little story: I got something wrong in this strip, realized it just as I finished, and I'm not going to fix it. Burn obsessive impulses, BURN!

More seriously, for some reason my hand was getting very tired as I finished this one so I hope the lettering comes out legible.

'And this one, Sir, is for that shockingly bad hat you wore for a month.' *STAB*

Trust Jeeves to make sure things turn out best for everyone. Of course I have a friend who compares me to Wooster, so perhaps I should be careful.

Replace random gamer with Wil Wheaton and I'm sold.

I couldn't resist.

UPDATE: So apparently, without me knowing it, the two Travel Channel show hosts I mention in this comic were in my area just few days ago taking part in an athletic even that was like a triathlon but with 4 parts: swimming, biking, running, and doughnut eating.

Sometimes truth is much stranger than fiction.

Thing To Fix

I realize the last two days my updates have technically come in the whee hours of the next day. I'm going to work on that. It has as much to do with me getting to bed at a decent hour as anything else.

The Project's Eventual Form

So I'm not sure how long I can keep up a comic every day, but don't want to just one day burn out and stop.

I'm thinking that I want to aim at at least 30 days in a row, perhaps even 50 (though we'll see), and then hit one-a-week. Of course, then I'd be worried that the actual comics wouldn't be any better... just coming less frequently.

I'm sort of up in the air on it, but I totally want to keep going indefinitely. It's a good creative work-out and hopefully somewhat entertaining (I've gotten a few little comments that totally made my day).
