Hey everyone. I hope the New Year is going good for most of you. I'm busy trying to finish up a bunch of loose ends from last year and a couple of things for this year. One of which is a Bill and Erik comic for this year's Staple! program. While I'm busy with those things (and not working on my beloved human and beaver funnies) I figured I would post last year's program insert to tide you over. The strip was meant as a general (read: not vulgar) intoduction so event-goers could get but a small taste of Bill and Erik. See ya soon (I hope). |

 I hope everyone is having a nice holiday time. See you next year! 2K9, you better come correct. |

 Bill and Erik will be taking a break. I have a couple of things that I absolutely must focus on and then on top of that, a couple projects that need to get done before the end of the year. However, the comic strip will return with a healthy-sized Christmas comic before Christmas. I wrote the thing out already and it's huge so I have to edit a bit or spend my entire "break" working on it.
Moving on, I hope everyone had a nice Spanksgiving and gave much thanks and spanks. I, stupidly, went to a mall the day after Spanksgiving. I was in the car headed that direction when I realized:
1. Oh shit, it's the day after Thanksgiving, and
2. I hate malls
But for some reason, this mall was not crowded to an annoying degree. It's a mostly outside, open-air mall and it was kind of nice. I just went to pal along with my sister but I ended up finding three gifts. Plus I had this exchange with the cashier at William-Sonoma.
Cashier: (After ringing me up) Would you like to make a donation to help the Children's (miracle health hospital something) fund?
Me: Oh lord no.
Cashier: (Completely frozen in terror. Does not know how to respond.)
Me: (Sensing that my joke was not well-received) Haha. Just kidding, I'll donate.
Cashier: Okay. How much would you like to donate?
Me: One dollar.
Also, in not-really related news, I found out something that I had wondered about at one point. And now I feel bad for knowing. |

Lemme see we got Bill, old Bill, clone of Bill, fully sentient robot Bill, and who knows what it is but I bet it's something really awesome but disappointingly commercial from the future Bill.
Have a Happy Spanksgiving America. And be sure to give thanks for all the spanks you got this year. |

*Whew* This strip just got out of hand.
Sorry for the delay but I got caught up in the election coverage last night. I'm kinda tired right now or I'd yak more. I'm even too tired for fourth meal, my favorite meal of the day. |

Erik is Judah Friedlander's character from 30 Rock, Frank Rossitano. Y'know, before I added the make-up around the eyes and mouth and the other colors, they all just looked like Weekend Update-era Dennis Miller.
It's no secret that a lot of women's halloween costumes are sexied up, but that still doesn't stop me from being surprised and amused at some of the outfits on BuyCostumes.com. For example, there are some that seem pretty weak in concept, others that seem very far from obvious, and some that really don't make the "sexy" conversion well at all. That's not even scratching the surface at how stupid some of these costumes are, so feel free to browse around. It's too late for this year, of course, but you know, if you're looking for a dumb + bo-nar-tastic costume for next year, go nuts.
Update: Apparently they had the same joke on the Office last night. Blerg |

Mix and match to create your own combinations! Yay! This may seem like the cheapest comic I've ever done but once I thought of it I couldn't not do it. I felt compelled. I imagine most of you will think this comic is (click here).
But in all seriousness, whoever discovers my body, please tell the newspapers that this is the comic strip I wished to be remembered by. Halloween comic next week. |

I don't know about you but proper tooth care is the issue that determines who I vote for, that's why I'll be writing in the name of my dentist on the ballot. I encourage you to do the same. Meaning write in my dentist's name as well. it's "Dr. Smiles."
This comic goes out to my boy Nick C, who was always a big Tommy supporter.
UrbanDictionary.com is about as bullshit as a site can be, but I do like their third definition of Nuprin. I do not like their second definition of Nuprin.
Notice: One more Membership Drive show left for the Mascot Wedding show. |

Forget what I said about big news. I changed my mind.
Update: The Fall membership (pledge) drive for KOOP Austin hits my radio show this weekend. Anyone who pledges at least $25 dollars will get an exclusive comedy album featuring myself, David Jara and John Erler. For more information (more than you wanted, I'm sure) visit the Mascot Wedding site. |

A lot of UHs and UMs in the comic lately. I guess that's what you get when you're re-writing dialogue at 3:30 in the morning.
Virtuosity is never on! That robot's just telling him what he wants to hear.
Oh man, this is the 25th comic of season 10 which means I don't think I can put off the news any longer. Big news coming up. I think. Urg, maybe not. We'll see. Now I've changed my mind again. |
