The Dude in the relationship…
Hey guys, I wanted to thank everyone for their kind words and understanding last week. It made it a lot easier knowing that people understand what I was going through. So from both my self and Amanda… Thank you. Anyways, back on track with a brand new storyline I hope you will all enjoy!

Good stuff, man, I’ve been on the losing end of the satchel argument many a time. Pony express riders carried them, there’s no way they’re a purse.
And glad to see you back.

Haha, nice! I have a Mountainsmith bag that I love. It’s great for hiking, it’s great for a summer overnight, it’s great for taking a few books or drawing stuff down to the brewery…But it is a satchel, and I get guff for carrying my “man-purse”. Frankly, though, I’m jealous…Think of all the cool stuff I could carry if I had a purse with me all the time! And women use that space for makeup and tampons…psssht.
Unrelated note, self-plug…did you hear they answered a question of mine on the new WW? It’s not the one I ever thought they would address, and I’ve asked others I would have liked to have heard their opinions on, but still, it made my day at work.

Hey guys, nice to see you again… Yeah O’m pretty sure that people are just jealous that they don’t have their own pur… I mean satchel. I mean it’s a bag like any other… and in case of a zombie uprising, your bag o’ weapons are at an easy access point at your hip…. I say it’s win, win.
Sorry Lou, I didn’t catch the new WW…. I’ll have to check it out tonight. I used to be able to download them at work, but they keep changing their servers and I’m sure the tech guys are getting sick of unlocking new domains for me. Which question is your’s so I can listen for it? I remember that my question was…. memorable…. Gawd damn Kurtz…..

My question was whether or not they would consider a web cartoonist trade association a good idea. You know, collective bargaining on books, health insurance, conferences on technique and such. However, I didn’t ask it very clearly (I was dashing it off at work and honestly expected Kellett to say “Poo poo that idea, sounds like a syndicate). The end result was that they answered a totally different question…Which was actually more interesting in the end!
And they made fun of my name and said it was a bad idea. Still got a kick out of it though.
Man, I miss my satchel. It’s sitting at home with my sketchbook, some colored pencils and my backup erasers and mechanical pencils. Work, by comparison, sucks.
Don’t forget to update the XBox today. New XBox Experience and all.

Actually, Rob, the episode where they “answered” you question was the next to the last one I listened to before dropping them. Near the beginning it was a lot of really helpful information, but it seems like the last wave has just been Kurtz acting like a tool and the other guys bashfully going along with it.
Coincidentally, though, that episode was also what led me to your comic, so I guess it was worth something.

Ah silver linings…. That’s what I like to hear. In truth I have not been as anxious to hear the newer podcasts the WW lot have been making either. It seems like they are fresh out of the really good tips and they’ve just been producing the Podcasts lately out of some kind of misplaced obligation or something. But still… it’s something to listen to at work….
Oh yeah and I TOTALLY updated my 360 today…. so far I like the new dashboard… there are some really cool new features…. I still feel like the Avatars have the wrong feel though. Xbox used to have a more “Hardcore” feel but these….. chibi wannabes…. well I don’t feel like they fit very well…. But whatever, I made one anyway. I think that it would be cool if you were able to get a special “creature avatar” with each new game and could choose to use it instead of these things….

Admit it guys, a purse is a purse.. potato / potato .. purse / satchel / sac / bag.. it’s all the same!! LOL Nice work, Rob!
Glad to have the comics back!

Rob: Yeah, and I kind of listen out of some obligation. I do most of my work (short of coloring) by hand, so there’s not much of use for me anymore…
Michele: Call it whatever you want to call it. I like my purse. I’m mildly curious about “kilts” (skirts, as you may say) as well. It’d be nice to have some breathing room in summer. Of course, I’m not quite THAT brave. I’ll fight the purse fight for now.

Lou, one step at a time .. purses .. skirts .. what’s next? one day are we going to find you in our closets and find out you guys were “curious” about our Victoria’s Secret lingerie?? Haha, just kidding but that would seriously be a good laugh!

Hmmm…Lingerie….
What? Oh, no, of course not! Too manly for that.
Back to daydreaming…
