I am trying to troll through the threads to get material, but I can't find everything. Since I keep saying that YOU GUYS are writing this strip, you'll need to help me. If you have an idea, best thing to do is PM me with enough of the taudry details that I have something to work with. I've got story lines that will stretch well into the summer ....... remember, I've only got so many panels to work with so some story lines take a few days or a full week to work. Throw in a 'panel 4 side wisecrack' from our not-yet-named little mouse and you get an idea of the thought process my warped mind goes through for every strip.
We're also only just now developing some of the character's personalities and traits (God help me, I am giving this thing WAY too much thought aren't I? ). Plus we've got a few 'inside' jokes aimed at a select few people .... I want to please them and also make sure the strip entertains a larger audience as well (it is being published here at BN, over at MeetThePhlockers and also at PhinPower.org each day). Combined with some other material, we may be able to publish these in book form someday in the not so distant future.
I want to work in many of the ideas you guys have sent me (keep them coming!), plus I still have a few of my own I plan to explore. So far (fingers crossed), many of the strips have worked well ...... I'm sure to have a few clunkers along the way.
Thanks for all the feedback. This is fun.

p.s. if you want to see yourself in the strip, it helps to have an identifiable character trait and/or a comic strip friendly avatar, but sooner or later I hope to reward all loyal readers with Stripper Stardom

Does 'Bits remind anyone of Cliff Claven from CHEERS?? maybe that's why SP made him a postman

OMG.....that's what I was thinking!!!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"
