 You know, I've decided

 I mean it this time! It's lost

Thanks for the warm welcome, and please don't be deceived by my spurt
of activity; I'm facing facts, and the fact is that I'm a lazy guy, so
I've finally rewritten the website back-end to support my new sporadic
non-schedule. Now I can pace myself instead of cranking out strips when
I don't have time, or ideas.

Of course, new episodes will be posted here when I get around to it,
but if they're in the queue on the website, they'll probably pop up
there first. Pending an automatic poster (meh) -- for those of you who
can't wait, and who crave that sweet XML fix, there are news feeds on
the website.

It's still at www.nerd-boy.net; feeds at the bottom (bottom feeder?).

As an aside, here's my new non-psychotic blog:

Comments:

1) Just because I was bored, that is the only reason I decided to do an
 "enlarged view"

2) Bigger is not better in this case.

3) To the "nerd" in all of us; Merry Christmas!

I am exstatically happy to see nerd boy back even if it's just an
intermittent thing.  I couldn't figure out how you could keep up anyway
the way you were.  Not like we're paying you what we should...

(Hey, whatever we're paying you now, I'll double it!)

N.B. If I could afford it, and/or the bank would let me, I'd change the
"n" to an "m".

Just for giggles, I did a search for "Nerd Boy" on eBay... came up with 
some candid photos:

Maybe Nerd Boy was brought to reality with some malfunction of the time 
machine?
