Thank you, thank you very much. XD The strip was actually quite 
troublesome -- the first several drafts were all wider than 100 spaces, 
so I had to cut down severely. Originally I was in there as a 
self-insert as well, but then I dropped that idea because there was no 
way I could've pushed the width down to 72 otherwise. :>

Heh. I was actually wondering if I should wait until you'd posted yours, 
but since the tribute took the plaec of the actual comic for Monday, I 
decided to go ahead and send it off. (I /was/ done by noon -- 
inspiration simply struck me that morning. I wish it was that easy mor 
often.)
