D'oh. My poor scanner decided not to scan color in the lower half of the page, so I couldn't get this one cleaned up until now. sorry for the long wait.. if anybody out there was really waiting.. >.>

Then again, every comic has a lumpy start, right? right? *sigh* I just wish this was easier to get settled than poorly made mashed potatoes. Burnt, too, in places....

But... whiny depressing rant quota filled for the week, onward! Doug says there IS someone out there who reads this! (hoping against the Digimon porn thing here.) So, I shall warn you in advance.. I'm going on vacation, so we'll have a filler prepared for that week ahead of time. (Yes, we WILL!) Other than that, we seem to finally have gotten into a workable schedule. yay! :)

I'm going to go play with LOTR toys now.

You know what I like?

I like feedback.

I like it a lot.

I like it because it lets me know if I've hit that happy sweet spot where I'm amusing other people as well as myself. I've been watching the site stats; I know that at least one other person aside from Karen and myself has been here. So you, yes you, that anonymous person who might have read our comic, please, drop us a line, tell us what you think (unless you were sent here via a misdirected Yahoo search for digimon porn; then I want nothing to do with you, you sick, sick puppy). I would especially like to hear some responses concerning our upcoming strips, as we're about to introduce one of the more experimental characters in CDU. The deal with her is that she is a personal joke that I am attempting to translate into a public one. I will of course understand everything about her and her relevance to the strip instantly, but as she is based on private experiences, I'm not sure how well she will translate to a public joke. This is a case of where I'm standing too close to the issue to see it clearly. So please, let me know.

BTW, despite all the uses of 'I' Karen did help with all of this in some small way too. ^.~
