Well it’s 2011 as I write this and my flag isn’t flying above the parliament buildings just yet. I also haven’t managed to make merchandise out of it in any way, although I do still like the design very much and have always wanted to update it a little.
Oh, and this comic marks the first time that I employed alt-tags to sneak extra jokes and commentary into each comic.

As a side-note I have no idea why I decided to centre-justify the date at the bottom of this comic. Sometimes I try different things with the dates and usually they don’t hold. [May 21. 2011]
