Hi all

Just wanted to say hi from the bottom end of Africa (South Africa, to be precise) Discovered this great site by accident this morning, and have been happily venting my angst and anger in various ways making the strips. Still getting the hang of this, and I've only made a few strips sofar - but take a look if you like.. Yes I know, they're probably crap - but hey, they made me feel good while making them, so.. :)

Hey, Ian_Fraser, i really like your sense of humor.
What a kewl idea it would be to have newspapers set up something where ppl could send in comics, like they do here. Yours, most definetly, would be a favorite with the readers. i'm sure of it.
i put you on my favorite list sooo keep your ideas/comics ...they're great.

A welcome to ya.

I'm enjoying your strips thus far. It's nice to hear the South African side of things. Plus political humor is really an untapped market here (sometimes people forget the humor part and sometimes they forget the political part). Anywho, good start.

Peeing sitting down is the gift you give yourself.

I used to share a house with a couple of South African guys and let me tell you, this guy right here reminds me of why those guys are still getting invited to barbequeues a year after I moved out. Top stuff, keep up the good work.
