hi web-ed,
actually, i didn't do them all in a week. as time permits i like to try to get a little ahead on a toon I'm working on and had the last pics of the previous toon done a couple weeks before i actually posted them. that gives me extra time to get a new toon started and also helps prevent interruptions when unexpected things come up that keep me from working on any pics. at this time i'm also working on a birthday toon for Dave Wolfe and hoping to get it done before his birthday.

i really don't think she suspects at this point. she seems to think he's just gonna drag her back to school but she'll figure it out pretty quickly as you've already surmised

. Al seems understandably upset and from his ever so brief greeting of Carl and Dianne, I don't think he's planning on delaying this very long

it does bring interesting questions and images to mind, doesn't it?

. thanks, phil
