The eighth and final part of the Auction. Yes, we can have the occasional happy ending in stories. I hope you all find it to your liking!
Still having trouble with the hacker/spammer. The password change didn’t help. At this point, I am open to suggestions, given that my internet skills probably aren’t nearly as developed as a lot of yours. This is becoming very frustrating for me.
We’re still having a lot of problems with hackers getting in and pasting spam all over the place for those of you who don’t use Java. I’ve changed some passwords, and if this doesn’t work, I will call my host and see about getting permissions changed in a rather drastic fashion. So apologies to everyone whose experience is sub-par thanks to this. Hackers suck.
In the meantime, enjoy Bart’s pinball machine fantasy!
Okay, you KNEW that there had to be a glitch in everyone’s plan SOMEWHERE. So Bart has a weakness for either Strongman, Pinball Machines, or both. Time will tell!
There’s been a lot of violence running rampant in these strips lately–two in a row with someone receiving some sort of head injury. Of course, silly Three-Stooges type violence always makes me giggle a little bit, so maybe I should include a little more of it.
Finally, after months of waiting, we finally get to the auction proper!
We can’t have a storyline without at least ONE strip of Jason doing something goofy. Don’t forget to fasten your seat belt, young man!
I know a lot of you are probably asking at what point are things finally going to go horribly wrong. Well, you’ll just have to wait and see!
This is meant to be a pseudo-homage to Goldfinger, where near the end of the film, when James Bond is ready to head home, that Felix Leiter stocks his plane with “liquor for three” when Bond, in fact, was to be the only passenger. I guess that is how Bart rolls with Chinese food.
We’ll be making some special announcements, cool offers, and fun contests to go along with the soon-to-be-release of our first webstrip collection soon. I hope you all will consider ordering one.
Things continue to move forward on this storyline, with really no end in sight. It’s going to continue to, at the very least, Strip 236 (with a four-part WarWorld Online Intermission stuck in there). I hope you all are enjoying this one.
On an unrelated note, I turn 40 on Sunday. I’m not sure how happy I am about the whole situation, but it’s not like I have a choice in the matter. Fortunately, my friends and family have sent me loads of encouraging words, so all is well in the world.
