More walking? These guys need to get little scooters or something....

     In other news, I've signed Terebinth up over at OhNoRobot. It's a search engine for comics: see, you transcribe the dialogue and captions from your comics and send them in to the OhNoRobot database. Then if someone's looking for, say, every occurrence of the word "halcyon" in those comics in the database, that someone would just type the word into the search box, and bingo! Up pops the link.

     So, if you wanna help out, click on back to the 2003 Archive, pick a comic--thanks to DracoDei and Betaalpha, we've got things done up through the first 50 pages or so: to the middle of August, I think it is--and click on the phrase "Transcribe this Comic" at the bottom of the page. A new page will open up, you type in the captions and dialogue from that comic, and click the submit button. It's just that easy, and thanks.

     I'll continue reminding you in this space about the comic I'm grinding out for the Daily Grind Webcomics Challenge-- it's called Daily Grind in case you haven't gone over to take a look. If Terebinth is where I unload the poetry rattling around in my cranium, then Daily Grind is where I unleash my inner dime novelist. Maybe even a "penny dreadful" or two whilst I'm about it.

     The Buzzcomix Voting Site seems to have reactivated, though I doubt I'll have time to put any poetical bribes up there to get you to use the link earlier in this sentence to cast your vote for the comic. But you can click the big Poetic Annex button down at the bottom of the page to read all the old poems. Or you can just use the link in the previous sentence, I guess.

     Other things you'll find at the bottom of the page there: a link to the Cast Page; a link to the Hey, Your Nose is on Fire Forum, a place to talk about this comic and Daily Grind; and, of course, the Web Counter. It's been counting for more than four-and-a-half years now. Soon it'll be attending pre-school, I assume.

     More comics for your perusal can be found on the Comix Link Page, and I've got an About the Author page up in case you've been wondering.
