How to Evaluate Someone Else's Plan

NOTE TO YOU, THE PEOPLE OF THE FUTURE:

Because of the lag time between when I create a comic and when it runs, I am writing this message to you from Monday the 4th, the day before the US presidential election. Needless to say, I am having difficulty concentrating. Also, I have a great deal of admin to do involving the release of my new novel, That's Not Right (Available now on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible!) so I am taking this week off. The comic will be back next week. Sorry for any inconvenience.

END TRANSMISSION FROM THE BEFORE TIMES!!

How to End Your Comic Strip

There it is. I predicted that it would take around six years to rerun them all, and I was right. This is nothing short of a triumph for my ability to perform basic math.

You still have my gratitude.

So, now that I’ve rerun them all with comments, what will I do with the comic strip now? The answer is, “Something.”

Will I post them all again, this time without commentaries? Maybe with different commentaries? Or maybe I’ll write new commentaries commenting on the old commentaries?

Or, will I do . . . something else?

Please keep checking the site and see!

How to Deal with Your Mistakes

A long time ago, Missy and I were in a cash-poor position, and I decided to try earning a little side money by applying at a temp agency. They tested my typing ability and basic familiarity with Microsoft Office. I had used word processors before, but not Word. And at that point it had been a few years. In fact, the most advanced word processor I had used ran on a black and white Mac, if that gives you an idea. A few things had changed.

They asked me what the squiggly red line under a word in my document meant. I didn’t know.

Think about that. I did not know what the red line, the foundational interface of a modern spell checker, meant. To make it worse, while failing to answer that question, I looked directly at a misspelled word and didn’t catch the error.

I was not offered any work.
