Hi,

My name is Badre Bally and I have to say I enjoy your comic. It's funny, its smart, and its original. I liked the strip when Nip discovered the internet, as well as the sixlegged chicken to name a number of strips I've enjoyed. When I first saw Thelma I thought she was a mouse (We don't have Possums here in Egypt)

I hate Gilly Gopher, he annoys me like Crazy ^_^#. To be honest when it comes to elections I'm more of a democrat supporter (Hi, its been like that since JFK was president my mom aodred him) and I liked Clinton but I'm not a big fan of politics and democrats can be whinny babies.

Anyway keep up the good work.

Holy. All the way over in Egypt, huh? Well, welcome to the asylum, I mean, the forums. We're all friendly here (well, Solidus tends to bite, but we've got a muzzle for him on order).

:P Word of caution: there are a lot of conservatives here, so if you decide to get involved in debates, know that we don't hold back. We have nothing against ya personally, and we respect your right to believe what you will. We also would go the distance to protect that right.

However, we also reserve the right to disagree with you. :P Don't worry; we're usually civil about it when we do.

Um... usually...


....Solidus, put down the Spam Cannon. You're scaring the n00b.

That won't work any more. Solidus found the muzzle and ate it.

Wilkommen, bienvenue, welcome!

Like they said, we rarely bite people - and if you're a JFK Democrat, we likely won't have much trouble with your ideas anyway. JFK's era was back when the Democrats still had a good handle on reality. Today's versions are a bit different.

Welcome Bennu.......we're weird, we're warped and we're loud......but other than that......we're actually a nice bunch of furballs. :roll:

*extends paw*

Now to REALLY date myself.....and maybe even you!.....but all in good humor and no insult or slight of ANY KIND intended.

Folks...check out his name......"Bennu"......anyone here other than me remember Judson Scott as 'Bennu' the sun-powered alien in the short lived SciFi TV show "The Phoenix"?

Thanks for the warm welcome :D I'll be careful with Solidus. And by the way Sharuuk "Bennu" is originally the name of the Ancient Egyptian pheonix.

Here's some more info about me:

I was born in Brighton, England in 1981. I am 23 and a male. I have both the British and Egyptian citizenship. My family is all Egyptian, I'm in the International Academy Of Media Science and my specialty is Cinema as I want to be a writer. I like JFK's as well as Clinton's era but I also admire republicans like Abraham Lincoln. I'm a big fan of anime (Not an Otaku) I also like Hong Kong movies like Jackie Chan flicks.

I like all types of music but my favorites are Heavy Metal, Rap and 1970's or 80's Pop, I also like Country music but I don't much knowledge of the singers except for Garth Brooks, Dylan and Kenny Rogers.

My favorite sitcom is Fresh Prince Of Belair (Huge Will Smith fan)

Favorite 80's show The A-Team

You are welcome.....and we'll try and keep Sol under control....massive doses of tranqs and a short hunk of 2 x 4 work quite well.. :wink:

And thank YOU for the education on Bennu. I never knew that....I thought the name for the character was another Hollyweird creation. Now, thanks to you, I know both the origin of the name and it's significance to the show.

Again...thank you very much.

Don't worry, I will go easy on you :) Since you are in Egypt, can you tell me where all that wonderfull alien weapons and technology is hidden?

Don't let him scare you Bennu....he doesn't really have any lofty goals.....other than total world domination.....but other than that, he's generally pretty harmless. :roll:

I hope you were being sarcastic :-? because that whole aliens in Egypt crap was created by the American media (They'll do anything to get a story) and believe me the pyramids were built by humans, they found the grave where all the workers who built the pyramids were buried The grave who called "Makbarat El Omal" Arabic for the Workers' Grave .
