As usual, nothing special on the double-oh. It's kinda fun
that I did do something in NB128, but not in NB256. I promise
I'll have something fun in store for you for NB65536 though. :)

About the strip.. I don't know what the heck that's about.
Just doodling, I guess. Thanks to osfameron for some ideas
about the windows. My revenge for the rabbit theft. :)

He remindes me in a way of the red dragon in the Bone comics, see
<http://www.boneville.com/library/excerpts/bone1_18.shtml> and
<http://www.boneville.com/library/excerpts/bone1_42.shtml>.  While you're
there, read the rest of the excerpts too from the start, and buy the books.

By the way, I dreamed last night that I had written a fan-art episode for
Nerd Boy.

Hmm, you're right. I wasn't going for that effect at all though. I just
started out with a few parentheses and thought "hehe, a giant bunny"
and went from there.

I've read Bone, it's available at the local library. Not sure if I've read
all of it though. That is, if it's not a work in progress. I don't even know
that.

Cool. Can you remember what it was about? Wow, I don't think I've ever dreamt
about other people's toons. Amazing that other people can dream about mine.

It is a work in progress.  And by the way, my recommendation (order?) to buy
the books goes for myself as well...

I have no idea, but I do remember that it was drawn with paper and pencil,
or in a drawing program, and not in ASCII-art.  Given the fact that I suck
at drawing, and that I haven't got the slightest idea what Nerd Boy would
look like outside of the ASCII context, in real life drawing an episode like
that would be very hard...

All of the Ninja High School Yearbooks where fan art based and it was
really fun.

Anyone who dreams about mine has issues and should seek help.  But I
should have some fun bits after tomorrow night.
