...Let's see, you have a Real Job, draw this triweekly comic strip for us greedy fans, and you still find the time to respond to what seems like 20 posts a day? I wonder how you do it! We're lucky to have such a dedicated artist, and I, for one, am glad to have met you through this forum. -- ArchTeryx

Reading all the posts (wow, this board is active lately) and from listening to stuff on the radio, a quote from a recent song came to mind. The "song" itself is ever bit as hard to listen to as mob psychology is to watch. Neither are for the faint of stomach. It's not something I could recommend to ...

Forgive me if this topic's been discussed before; I'm really behind on the board. But it looks as if Avariss is trying something truly diabolical. He's sending his most troublesome employees -- including his own son -- to Furriston right when the anti-human rhetoric is heating up, being stoked by Sn...

You know, all this talk about hammering and/or eating Snakebird Bob, it's cathartic, but these controversial radio personalities thrive on that sort of thing. As Gene has said, Bob practically makes a career out of being a "victim" on the air. I do believe a much better and much more lasting thing w...

Heh. I must say, I'm both admiring and envious. Admiring in that Gene's willing to actually draw comics based on threads on the board, and envious that it wasn't me that got drawn. (Of course, if Gene drew everyone, then he wouldn't have time for normal plot!)

Awwww. I is sorry, Bill. Didn't want to make you feel unwelcome (even in jest). Even we 'teri wear clothes when the need arises.

Maybe sometime we can find a clothing shop that sells wares easier on the feathers. Maybe it's time to try a new look.
