I figure it's time to have a new serial comic, and since I am an egomaniac (sh'ye'right!) I am reserving first place on the list for myself, and naming myself administrator of this serial. For those who didn't see the last one of these we did, somebody makes a strip, then the next person on the list continues the story, then the next person, and so on. Theoretically, the last person on the list should finish the story. If you want to be in it, reply to this thread over the next coupla days and I will make a numerical list in the order you volunteer.

We kinda ran out of steam on the last one, didn't we? Maybe this one'll be better. I guess you'd better throw my name into the hat.

Well, I did so by email, but since you're all spieling your beer on this page, so will I.

Mmmmmmm, beer on serial.

Whiskey for me. But I still spilled it. I'm in as long as I can make abstract comics, with no dialogue and strategic placement of characters communicating the essence of my strip.

I have a script that checks for new posts to the message board every minute, and in the event of such, will sound a klaxon alarm inside my house, as well as call me on my cell phone and pager. I've got a Palm Pilot and a wireless modem so that I can log in anywhere and post. In the event I'm out of wireless range, incapacitated or dead and haven't logged anything within a five minute time span I've got a sophisticated AI program that will post in my stead.

Yea, right. If I were a program, could I turn out sophisticated comics like this?

PS - You're all invited to a barbeque at my house Saturday at 4 o'clock. We'll be playing some special games so if you could shave all your body hair off and bring 100 gallons of warm goo it would greatly facilitate things. Also, if anyone has a bone saw or extra skulljacks it would speed things up.

Wouldn't a single auto-downloading vibrating penile implant have been more sensible?

Uh, an invitation usually has an address and phone number on it.

Here, I've gone and shaved off all my body hair and have the goo warmer going, and I don't even know if I live close enough to make it.

KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) - Crown Prince Dipendra, on life support from self-inflicted wounds, was named Nepal's king Saturday after fatally shooting his monarch father and seven other members of the royal family, government and military sources said.

Following his sterling example, I'm going to kill off every able-bodied citizen that stands between me and the presidency of the US.

Damn, and here's poor old me with my razor and shaving gel, hoping that LadyJ would be kind enough to let me shave her...

Another twenty-four hours and I will get the ball rolling. Oh, and once this serial is done, I have a new idea along the same lines - sitcom! It was going to be a contest idea, but that would require me to win again... HA! Anyway, first person makes up a cast of characters, and everyone takes turns to write an "episode" (strip).

I'm going to start my own brewery and turn out ultra-super-duper-microbrews. The batches will be so small as to turn out only one bottle at a time. And I'll sell them to silly rich people for $10,000 a pop.

The headline in today's Washington Post read:

Prince Kills 8 in Nepal's Royal Family

And I thought to myself, how cool it would have been if he'd kept that stupid glyph for his name.

Sillier than you think, for it will be beer, not pop.

I realise that this has nothing to do with this thread, but I did a small series that's about some of the stuff I've seen working with bar bands, (part of what I do), and I was interested in comics about other people's professions.
