                <description><![CDATA[ So, I was going to switch over to a  different user name <br />
here but then I found out that I'd have  to re-upload each picture individually.Â   <br />
And that would be a pain.Â  Then I  realized that I'd lose all the comments  and, <br />
let's face it, I can use all the  encouragement I get.Â  So the end result  is that <br />
I got a new name and then said, Ah,  fuck it. with a heaving sigh of  laziness.Â  <br />
And that's all because I wanted to  print up business cards, to which  Allison <br />
asked, Why?Â  Well, I think itd be all  professional, as well as aiding my <br />
laziness by enabling me to throw paper  at people rather than go through the <br />
trouble of <i>saying</i> my phone number or  anything.<br />
<p>On a less work-fearing not; Ive  actually scripted, blocked <br />
and (heres the kicker.Â  Like, foot up  the ass kicker) drawn (and then  scanned, <br />
edited, compiled, titled and saved) a  comic strip!Â  And not just one.Â  Six!Â  I <br />
put them up on a daily update, but that  was six days ago so now its going to <br />
switch to twice a week starting with  the next strip. God only knows when  thatll <br />
be.Â  Its nomadic at the moment.Â  I  intended on putting it up at Keenspace  but <br />
that takes at least two weeks to secure  and set up an address. I started one at  <br />
DrunkDuck but they dont impress me all  that much.Â  I also put up a version <br />
right here in our own backyard.Â  So here  are the sites, and Ill update with <br />
its final resting place when I know it.</p> <br />

<p>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  </p><br />
<p>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Its about Freddy (who does not have  the top of <br />
his head, I know) and The Scream ala  Edward Munch.Â  Its not a whiney goth <br />
comic.Â  Its an Erisian/Dada experiment  with perception and satire.Â  Its a fun <br />
sketch I do when I have time.Â  Its  funny, its literate, its questionable  in <br />
taste and its badly drawn.Â  Youll love  it.</p> ]]></description>
