Be very quiet, I'm reading.

Here's the next two comics in the series. Eh, I've decided to release them two at a time. You may be asking, why the hell is he releasing them a couple at a time instead of all at once? Well, I want you to keep coming back, don't I?

Tomorrow, or technically today, there is a new book coming out that I'm planning to get. You may have heard of the series, The Sword of Truth. Anyway, I'm a big fan of the series and the seventh book in the series is due out and I plan to be at Books-A-Million around noon to pick it up. I've even went and reserved a copy just to make sure I can get a copy. Thing is, last year when the sixth book was released, about three days after it was released and I paid $30+ for it at BAM, I noticed it at Krogers for 50% off. Oh well, it was worth the price I paid for it!

Anyway, this is pretty much a pointless update, outside of the new Sharkey Strip that I promised in the last update.... This time, I'm starting the rotation off with the very first strip. This is the first in thirty one strips, so just think, there should be at least another thirty or there about updates from me! Aren't you just lucky?

Back in the days, the man known to most as simply Sharkey, did a comic strip that's was a hell of a lot funnier than the comic strip he does now. I followed the old strip very close back then, pretty much unaware that it was parioding the comic strip that's now one of my favorite.

Thanks to my connections on the Internet, I have the complete archive of the comic named ">8)>", or to those that can't pronouce that simply as "The Comic". And I have now made it my goal to once again put up this archive so all can enjoy the the comic strip that made fun of video games. But for now, I simply give you my favorite strip out of the entire archive... Expect the rest the moment I know I am safe from the wraith of Sharkey.

Yeah, it's been a long time since the last update to Eric42.org, but I've been busy. If you didn't know, I'm working my ass off at the local Walgreens, doing all kinds of things, including working in the Photo Lab, where I get to see all kinds of porn, from the good stuf to the completely sick (I saw a really fat lady once and this guy dressing up in women's underwear... both made me wanna puke.)

Since it's been a while, here's the lowdown on my life. Even long before my last update, I've become a Magic: The Gathering freak. I'm eventually going to test my mad skills (Ha!) at a tournament or something one of these days. I'll get cremed, but what the hell. If anyone ever wants to play me at M:TG, just email me and Download Apprentice.

I also just recently got a DVD player and several DVD movies, including what is currently the gem of the collection (which is only three movies at the moment), which is an Autographed copy of the Kevin Smith movie, Clerks, which kicks ass. But having my copy autographed makes it kick ass even more. It even includes the Soul Asylum music video "Can't Even Tell" and an alternate ending where Donte gets shot on the DVD as a bonus deal. Hell yeah. When my scanner starts working correctly, I'll scan in the DVD case so all can see the autograph.

Lemme see, other things in life... My Tiny Toon Adventures page actually has it's own domain name now, http://www.ttaworld.net. It's pretty cool and all that. Toon Zone is hosting it for free and everything. Damn, Harley and company at Toon Zone are just plain cool.

And as my last thing, I'm back into comic books a bit again. After picking a couple X-Men books and discovering how terrible they still are, I am pretty much sticking with one book, G.I.Joe, which is being published by Image Comics now. It's actually pretty cool, just like it used to be back in the old days. Two issues are out so far, and well, it just rules. It's great to see Snake Eyes again.

I have a cold. I hate it, as thanks to me wanting to talk all the time while I'm at work, I've lost my voice. I've not really said anything now for hours, which I am hoping will help get my voice back soon. Bah.

I had something else here originally that I was typing up, but for some reason, I stopped typing it up and left it. It was about the World Trade Center buildings crashes and stuff. Truely, it was a horrible event that I wish I never actually got to see. It's hard to believe that something like this could strike the "untouchable country" that is the United States. All the countries across the world that's been torn apart by civil wars and the such, I barely thought anything of them. They didn't affect me, but this certainly does. Anyway, I agree with the mass out there that we do need to be quick and swift in retaliation, but let us not lose focus on ourselves in the process. Don't forget about us, President Bush, the people you serve. And don't you dare start World War III.

Anyway, coming soon to Eric42.org: Online Comics; they've been around for years now, becoming more and more popular ever day. But how do you know what strips are the good ones? That's what I'm here for; to review them, to point out the good from the bad. The first comic strip due to be reviewed is 8-Bit Theater.

With over a month of downtime for eric42.org, the domain is once again up and runing. Thanks once again go out to Myrmid for the free hosting. Anyway, I hope all the links here work... I've fixed the few things that I've noticed wasn't working, but if there's anything more broken, someone, let me know!

I've been going through a lot of personal angst lately, but I think I'm finally over most of it as of tonight. That's cool. Anyway, that's all I really have for now. I'll update next when I actually have something to update with. heheh...

After a good amount of time down, finally, eric42.org and captainn.org are finally back up and online! Whoo! Of course, there's nothing at captainn.org yet and there's hardly anything here really...

I've been showing off my original story to people and the responce that I have got has been pretty good. So, okay, there's only one chapter in the story so far, but everyone who's read it, except for one person that I know of, has loved it and has demanded that I write more. Of course, I've been on a minor case of writer's block, so it's not quite that simple. heh.. Well, I am trying, at least. I've got this huge storyline idea in my head all planned out. The first chapter of the story will be rewritten with at least one additional scene and I am making the exsisting scene longer if I can help it.

Well, okay, anyways, site content is still at zero, but I am planning several things, including a bio about myself and a section for my own reviews on a few of the online comic strips out there on the Internet. All that and perhaps more coming one day before the world ends! Well, two days before if anyone bugs me to get it done. =P
