Additional Comments
A: Though I don't have a home page presently (I do, ironically, design them for a living,) if you actually respond to my questionaire, I will construct one for you to peruse as quickly as it takes you to respond to this. It is now 4:20 am on Sunday morning, if you respond by 4 pm Monday, that would give me a little less than 36 hours to put something up. If you didn't respond until next Sunday, that would give me a week. If you are willing, I'll promise to make the page interesting enough to be worth your while (no nudes though, sorry.) This all sounds terribly clever to me after thirty-six hours of computer-lab hell, that could be a problem, but I'm sensing you might be game, What have you to lose?
Oh, by the way, I dig your drawings.
