Don’t you just love it when you’re sitting there raving about someone only to turn around and have them make you an instant liar?  No?  Well neither does Ted.  This is Hi-Hat Jim’s first appearance.  I doubt it will be his last.  He’s been buggin’ me to write him in since way back when T&Z was only 3 panels.  He’s on a probationary period for now…

Lots coming up.  I won’t have a strip for Friday, but I’ll have some fan art from the great Flup!  She’s and Awessie (awesome + Aussie).  There’s no WAY I just made that up.  I mean, I did, but I can’t have been the first.  It’s like when I came up with the idea for the “light bulb”.  I’m still pissed about that one.

So I’ve reanimated.  This is a good thing.  Even when I’m knockin’ on Death’s door I’m able to do a bit.  I’m still kinda down, but not completely out.  Since I’m still quasi-poor I had to go with the generic Target-brand mucus relief pills as opposed to the tried-and-true Mucinex.  Most OTC meds are a waste of my time and money because I burn them off so daggum fast, but I’ve never tried it and one of the guys at work gave it a glowing review.

It’s alright.  It seems to work even better when I actually remember to take it every 4 hours as suggested.  Thank God for cellphone alarms.

So I’ve made it through 2 weeks of consistent updates.  Granted, some were late, but, as I said, that’s because I’ve been a bit down.  I do have a bank of strips for T&Z, but I thought it’d be fun to put a bit of current events fun into them.  And who doesn’t like to Stan Lee themself into their own comics when they can? 

I wonder how many of youse guys would have caught the referrence if I had said Alfred Hitchcock instead of Stan Lee?

I wonder how many of youse guys even knew what I was talking about when I said Stan Lee.

I wonder how many of youse guys are even reading this anymore?  heh he he…
