The blog is back! Note the balloons on the right - this is a special occasion and under normal circumstances there is no excuse for such frivolity. Except in the case of the Common room record player, which was comic gold.Tomorrow with the beginning of regular entries we will be paying a visit to that most illusive of secret sects, the Illuminati! But until then, a little teaser about what we have in store over the next few weeks.
Firstly, an upcoming cartoon.
As has been mentioned before there is a near endless supply of comedy that can be had by making fun of blind USA patriotism and its results. Hence the flags shown below in the text represent a fair interpretation of such views. This is just a disclaimer because I have a horrible recurring nightmare about some moron coming on and complaining that I'm discriminating or some such nonsense while strapping Bob Dole to his kneecaps. Weird.
A brief plot outline :Set inside cyberspace, it follows our two wholesome heroes as they fight the evil and incompetent programs that litter the web like used condoms. Except less useful.
More detailed character info coming soon. The cartoon is a pretty accurate reflection of what I think about various programs. As it says I still haven't produced a picture in Paint for IE yet, but that'll certainly be done by the time of the actual comics.
Anyway, with that said, most entries will still be the normal mix of vaguely surreal reports about this and that interspersed with reviews (PREY review coming on Thursday once I take the final screenshot I need). Also, a tentative release date for this next stunning piece of work is Monday 18th. The word "tentative" is very, very important here. Look it up and write a 500 page essay on it if you are unsure.
Next-to-last, there's also going to be a multi-part incredibly-cliched murder mystery starting soon. FINALLY, we will also be having a feature about the handwriting feature on MSN Messenger. Specifically, the battle of the Ubertrons. If you want yours to be displayed, draw an "Ubertron" and send it to me. Interpret the Ubertron legend however you will, but mostly likely is some kind of robot.

Ah I know of a similar but even more surreal and non-racist cartoon strip done in paint. Blog readers may have fun reading http://yellow5.com/pokey
Woohoooooo blogs are back in town.
That comic(I mean, graphic novel) looks hilarious...but I want to play the Story of WTF.
I want Prey too, but for that I need a new computer...which would be good. I want a lot of stuff. But I've realised that I've been blabbering for quite a while so...umm...BYE!
Awesomeo pic... norton is truly shit...cant wait for the story of WTF =)
That penguin thing was ... well shit tbh =/ marks paint skillz ftw!
Since not everyone has the MSN handwriting tool, use that, or Paint, or a graphics tablet, or just some crappy method ;)
Woo! Making lots of ads is fun. If you ever need more, I'll readily make more. Or thrust them upon you and force you to use them, like I did with these three *shifty eyes*.
Anyway - I think that only entries done on the MSN handwriting tool should be allowed. Paint gives unfair advantages like the ability to zoom in and draw straight lines easily, along with far, far more colours to choose from.
Ok then, how's this. You can use any basic program to draw your Ubertron as long as you don't use zoom, fill or anything more advanced than the most basic drawing tool.
But how could you possibly tell short of asking them to submit a video of them drawing it? It's still best if its just done on MSN.
