Total last minute thing. There was a thunder storm yesterday night.
Turned off the computer and pulled the plug for fear of death by
lightning, thus I couldn't make a strip. Hence the last minute (or
actually, approx. minus 600th minute) strip.

Betty Bad is a game. What else? The link in the strip is too long,
wraps and gets fxxked up, so I'll just give you a hint:

"Think"? It took no time at all and I didn't mull over it for a second.
Maybe it's true what Cleese says, that comedy is about spontaneity.

Correct, Dennis. :) The spark symbol represents a realisation of
some sort. The fact that "the penny dropped", so to speak.

Hmm... What a novel idea. :) I might add that. Come to think
of it, I don't even have a bio on my personal homepage.

But atleast you have your plan and coding section, which kinda
tells about you :)

That it does. :) You can probably tell I'm a weirdo. Then again, you
can probably tell that from my comic strips as well. :)

Well, not completely. May be only the 'weirdo' part. A persons'
creation reflects what he wants to be, not what he is.

There you go. These things really can't be too planned. They will
start to feel overworked. (Of course, having an editor is always good
too. I certainly feel that way about Cleese. He is mightily funny as
long as there is someone to rein him in - or should I say, "cane" him
in)

Ah yes, the upward gaze. Of course, I have no idea how it looks

Fawlty Towers. I know that zillions of people absolutely worship
Cleese in Fawlty Towers. I thought he was a snore.
