StelBel, Beviek, Serena’s Kitty, and probably others here….Me too!Yes, it takes a huge chunk of my time just to get through the comics. I can certainly understand if someone says “I have to be gone for a while,” which No. Six did post in a couple of places.But Essex said, more or less, “This has to come to an end. Bye bye.” with no further explanation.That’s a scary thing for someone to say, and I don’t like the things it makes me imagine.Maybe he didn’t realise that; maybe it was for dramatic effect… but I sure hope that’s all.As for me, I have about 45 strips on my favorites page. I read them all, but these days only read about half those forums, and comment on maybe half those, or even fewer when I’m busy.At those times, if I know there will be 80 or 150 dead serious comments I’m less likely to go there than if there are probably only a dozen or two, with room for a joke.Sometimes there are just too many links to “cute” this and “interesting” that for me to even open them all.Or I do, but if it’s a song or a video clip, I watch only a bit of it. When people say “Look at today’s BC,” or some other strip, I mean to, but often don’t. And when someone says “click here” with no explanation…. well…. my first thought is “tell me why, please.”So it’s a compliment to Essex that I usually check out all his links, cos they’re always germane.He’s a smart, funny guy — and I hope he comes back.And Essex… if you read this….you better pick me up in that Hawk!
