New shirt design coming soon.
And my girlfriend also got "a good chance of passing the entrance test".
She claims this means that the test means nothing.
RH2 was kinda cool, it had the chic from CTHD but she was hot so it was all good.
This french ambient music rocks.
"I have " a good chance of passing the entrance test". "
...
For those of you who don't know, Mensa is a big club for smart people. You have to have an IQ in the top 98th percent of the population to qualify. According to the site, I have " a good chance of passing the entrance test". ^_^
Woo hoo! My site updated! Today's strip may not make quite as much sense as I envisioned...oh well...plus, my/Jeff's mouth looks weird in panel 2. I had meant to change that in the Photoshop phase of creation...oh well...
But the WORST news, is that the FLCL manga sucks. Ga damn.
But the GOOD news is that Keenspot is the best company in the whole wide world. I had pre-ordered the Superosity comic book, and was supposed to get a free piece of original art from Chris Crosby. BUT, it didn't come with. So the lord high priestess of Keenspot, Teri Crosby, talked with me about it, and actually sent me not one but TWO pieves of art, plus two old-skool comic books by Chris! I'm blown away. Now, it's off to send her a thank you e-mail!

Regained my drawing abilities a bit... ^_^
Gar...I couldn't find my normal drawing pen, so I got out a new one with a bloody thin tip. So now all my drawings are off and look horrible. So that's why tomorrow's strip will = crappiness.
Well, the Bush-meister just finished his national address on stem cell research. Since this is my rant space, you now get to hear my thoughts on this.
First, I would like to establish that I am not a very religious person in any way, shape, or form, so I do not have many of the problems with "playing God" and all that sort of thing. I think that stem cell research is a very good thing, for it hurts no one. "Potential Life" is not life, at least not yet. I don't think that stealing children from preschools and taking their life is a good thing, but a pre-embryonic life form is not the same. I'm all for stem cell research.
Now, for Bush's decision, I understand that he's under a lot of pressure. He can't stop the development of science, but he can't turn his back on the nation's religious community. So he made a compromise, and allowed funding for research only on a few stem cells. But these are enough. There's a constant supply of these, because they regenerate. Sixty stem cells should be enough to prove that the hope in the research is well founded. I would imagine if we get the solid potential for success, the President at the time would have to allow more funding.
Or not. We'll see, I guess.

Yay! I got my cd-burner to work, I re-downloaded CuteHTML, and strip number 50 went up without a hitch! Keenspace is in some resemblance of working order now, so that's GOOD. Everyone go check out Winter, a new comic from Hot Soup, the guy who did Lethal Doses (which just HAD to end right when I started reading it).
Now, about strip 50: You all understand it, right? There's 6 different stories which just *happen* to share 9 panels. This is based upon Choose your own Carl @ scottmccloud.com, and Framed! had a similar one within the past month or so. I'm going to be doing a few more interesting things along the McCloud lines, since his book Reinventing Comics reminded me that I have a comic ON THE INTERNET, so I should make use of my infinate canvas. So look for some interesting stuff soon.
Wow, writing rants is time consuming. I'm amazed at the lengths of the Penny Arcade rants, which are updated every m/w/f, and just fill the page. They have WAYYYYY too much free time on their hands ^_^.
(Like I don't)

Gar, while I was trying to clear off space to download FLCL, I accidently deleted my precious CuteHTML program, and then my cd burner stopped working, and GAR!
But a new computer may be in my future.
So I'm happy.
Well...I must say that I am quite excited about tomorrow's comic. Oh, enough of this. Never mind. I should stop being idiotic about the whole strip 50 thing. Ashfield Online is at 600 something I bet, so 50 for me is not all that impressive.
But I do have THIS to say: Keenspot has the nicest people in the world running it. I had some questions about the comic book stuff, and Teri Crosby (CFO of Keenspot and color-person of Superosity) answered them ASAP, in her usual kind style.
And time for the first of the AnimeAwards! The winner for Best Theme Song: Love Hina (Sakura Saku)! Second place (very close) is Inuyasha (Change the World).
More coming soon!
It updated! hoo-RAY! I love you Keenspace. Give me a hug.

Fine, I'm just gonna post strip number 49 here:
[image removed: if you really want to see it, go here]
Strip number 50 news: It's actually done! It was much faster than I thought it would be. But it's BIG, so be ready. Hopefully the 'space will be up to it.
Keenspace still isn't working, so I'll post today's comic on here and on the forum soon.
MEANWHILE, Strip number 50 news!
Strip number 50 will use the teachings of Scott McCloud, and be in the form of a "Choose-your-own-Carl". That's all I'm gonna say. Over and out.

New e-mail address: studiocracka@hotmail.com. Please e-mail me. I have no friends.
There's something seriously wrong with me. I finished tomorrow's comic before 11:00 at night!!! I'm going to a doctor.
Now this gives me more time to think about something cool in Wednesday's strip, because it's big number 50... it'll be at LEAST 8 panels long... except I might split it into several GIFs to increase quality.
I announced the URL for VotS contest on the forums, think of a good domain name, and you win a prize, like gold! Everyone likes gold!
I think ricardo is dead....he hasn't been online all day...
