So, drop by and check it out...

Thanks

Erm, actually it's your fourth anniversary. You've been running four years; 2001-2002, 2002-2003, 2003-2004, and 2004-2004.

Still very impressive. Congrats.

Well, no, cause it's four years old today :P .

Year 1: 2001-2002
Year 2: 2002-2003
Year 3: 2003-2004
Year 4: 2004-2005

So you're beginning your fifth year and this time next year it will be five years old.

Though thats hardly the point.

The point being is that he / she has kept up an awesome comic for quite some time now.

Kudos.

I saw ban the basics about a month ago, and I will say this.

Ban the Basics is one of the strips I'm envious of, because I only WISH I could draw as fluidly and consistently as Tariq does. And I PRAY that I'll be able to keep my material as consistently funny and witty as Ban the Basics is for as long as it has.

Honestly, keep up the good work.


OH,

and Ms. Walker should be signing up for a first date.
