2-HeadedGiraffe: Out of Commission

---

My laptop is not working. When you hit the power button, the lights come on, but nothing else happens. This means that either the BIOS is not loading or there's something wrong with the monitor itself. I will call HP in the not-too-distant future and have them fix it, but since I don't have my address for the summer (I'll be taking summer session classes here), I don't even know where to tell them to send the computer back to.

In the meantime, my comic will not be updating :( Instead, I'm drawing a number of strips by hand, which is actually something of a fun change of pace over doing them on the computer in Photoshop. Once I get the computer up and running again or I find somewhere with a scanner I can use, they will be uploaded, split into separate images and posted. BIG stuff happening in the strip, and I wish I could share it (if anyone on Vent or anywhere else is reading. Heh.)

2-HeadedGiraffe: Obama Trivia

---

I heard a bit of an interview with Barack Obama the other day. First of all, he prefers the Rolling Stones to the Beatles, and he recently bowled a thirty-seven. I can't remember the rest.

2-HeadedGiraffe: Yay!

---

Today is the 10th anniversary of my starting my comic. It hasn't been online that long, and it hasn't run continuously in any form for that entire time, but ten years ago today the first strip was drawn. Starting here is an admittedly very brief summary of the story so far. Each completed book of strips (of which there are currently five) gets a nine-panel strip summarizing the major plot points found therein. The strips focus on the events which have a lasting effect on the story as opposed to ones where things end up right back where they started. The final page of the recap, focusing on Book 5: Garage au Trois will be posted around midnight tonight.

You don't have to care, but it makes me happy!

Mood: Hoorayish All Over
Homework Status: Incomplete
Current Book: Book 6 (Title Pending)

2-HeadedGiraffe: Sorry to Do This, But...

I just had to post the best comment I've heard about Gygax. It's irreverent, but appropriate and amusing:

"He failed his save versus death."
