Re. the Write-a-Thon:
according to the Clarion blog, your efforts this week
have propelled me from "not in the top ten fundraisers" to fourth
place. In real terms, this means very little. The
person who raises the most money gets an iPad, but I believe I am
trailing the frontrunner by at least a thousand dollars.
Besides, Apple is the devil. So is Microsoft, of
course. Computers are just generally the devil. They
know I am their enemy, and they will someday bring about my
downfall.
At any rate, I feel no real competitive spirit. I just think
it's cool that we have raised $396.27 USD (at the moment, that's
$383.72 CAD) in two weeks. Wouldn't it be even cooler if we
hit $400, and I found myself bound to produce seven extra comics
on top of the seven extra
comics I shall already be producing? Wouldn't that just be
freaking awesome?

In two weeks,
West of
Bathurst will turn five. Consider celebrating this
fact by donating $5 (or more, but $5 is a properly symbolic number)
to the nice Clarion people.
They will appreciate it, and
you will get more comics.
Everybody wins! Except me! I don't
count!
