Truthfully, I'd love guest strips...then I could run one of those esteemed guest weeks that I covet so dearly in other comics. ;)

Only the strips drawn by Laskey and written by me can be considered canon, as she helps me out when I'm pinched for time. You can probably consider anything with my name under the writer's credits to be within normal continuity, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

In a word, absolutely. Sometimes I ask specifically for guest strip submissions. But, for the most part, I keep all guest strip submissions in a special folder and use them when I need them. So, if you'd like to submit a guest strip, I'd really appreciate it. Don't forget to include any information you'd like me to post to the GU Forums to asociate with the comic, such as: an explanation of the strip, a link to some of your other artwork, etc.

The current and (as best as can be determined) complete list of guest anchors, up to September 18, 1997, is:

They may or they may not. There are no set rules. Most hosts simply offer a bedroom and you are free to come and go as you please. If a friendship develops you may of course decide to do things together, but don't assume it is your host's duty to entertain you. you and your host communicate together, you will be able to make the arrangements that suit both of you.

Originally DT was meant to be single stand alone strips like Peanuts only funny, once again that kind of died when i started using plots and storylines, hence the change into a more comic book-pageish type of format.

If the strips are not past their expiration date, check to make sure the date on the analyzer is set correctly.

(Or you can turn the CardioChek off and turn it on and watch the display until the date is displayed.

Some people find that nasal strips such as Breathe Right provide some relief. They look much like Band-Aids and are worn across the nose. The springing action in the strip can help to open up the nasal passages and improve breathing.

I use Adobe Illustrator, a high-end vector-based graphics program. Believe it or not, creating those little stick figures require an expensive design program and years of experience. Illustrator gives me the smooth blocks of color and nice lines that I think add a lot to the OOTS look. Plus, it allows me to save a series of frequently-used poses, which cuts down my production time. Top

A - They are strips of six to eight contact points from which electrical activity from your brain is recorded. They lie on the surface of the brain rather than in the brain tissue. A small hole may be drilled in the skull in order to place the strip electrodes.

Scott is working on a CD compilation of all the 21CF strips, working with the people who did a CD for 'Gene Catlow'. Scott is going back to the old strips and cleaning up the lettering and restoring lost details before that happens. When it's available, we'll post details here. Update- 08/06: Scott finished the relettering of the early strips.

Don't panic. This is normal. Steri Strips are meant to stay on for a few days at most. At this point, you have two options. If the wound is not draining or red, simply leave the Steri Strips off. If you want to protect the area you can reapply the Steri Strips over your incision site perpendicularly to the incision. While the Steri Strips are in place, you can place Aquaphor? or Bactroban? ointment over them.

This allows us to recognize you as a new person. It's our belief that nothing is worse than attending a get-together to have fun and seek out potential new friends, only to sit around ignored and bewildered. Sometimes in getting ready to conduct a get-together, the Chapter Director (CD) and/or Assistant Chapter Director might forget to introduce themselves.

But, if you feel that you have a compelling story... one that the audience will want to hear... Please, by all means, we want to hear it! Email us at: feedback@brucewagner.com

On one condition: that icon MUST be free for anyone to use. It really pisses me off when I see people get angry or snide because someone used "their" icon without permission, and "their" icon is something from my comic. Don't get me wrong. When I see people using my art on LiveJournals or forums as avatar art, it's REALLY flattering, but understand that just because you take my art and crop it and maybe add a few words or animate it doesn't make it yours.

People without health insurance can check with a local community center or clinic to see if they can obtain free or reduced-cost test strips. Unfortunately, the ADA is not aware of any manufacturer that offers a compassionate use program for test strips. People with health insurance that does not adequately cover test strips have fewer options.

Most every Sunday newspaper comic strip is colored by the same company, located in upstate New York. Using the numbers from a color key that they provide, I take a photocopy of my black and white artwork and indicate what colors I want where. In the last few years, a number of cartoonists have begun coloring their strips themselves using Photoshop, or some other method, to give themselves a bit more control over the look of their art.

Generally, the funny ones where there is an interesting and distinctive voice. Strips with generic humor have never really appealed to me as much as the more quirky ones. Bloom County, The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes were all favorites of mine before they ended.
