How do bikers dress?

The sacrifices I make for my comic strip…

You may have noticed the authenticity of the character design for Percy the Biker. This is because I am dedicated to bringing you the best comic possible no matter the cost to my personal mental health.

When I decided to put a biker in the comic, I realized I wasn’t exactly sure how a biker would dress during the summer, so I went to a number of different motorcycle websites, only to find nothing but pictures of the bikes, but no bikers. I then decided to go to Yahoo! Profiles and type in the search field Male age 25-35, and under the interests section I typed "bikers."

I might as well have typed in "Gay Sex Pornography" in the search field. I still have no idea how bikers dress because I was not able to find a picture of a male biker who was in fact wearing clothing of any kind. I quickly gave up my search when I saw what kind of results I was yielding. If you have a problem with Percy’s outfit, well then you may bite me.

I’m not entirely sure what the update situation is for while Emrys is away. I heard a rumor about a guest comic or something, but it’s his job to update the website so I’ll let him worry about that. I know I don’t have anything prepared for over his break, anyway. At The Amish Van, we have a very nice system worked out – I draw and Emrys stays out of it. He … I guess it’s called "HTML’s", and I stay out of that. I pretty much have no idea what I’m doing with websites and if I tried I would no doubt have the entire site destroyed by the time he returned. We both deserve a break anyway.

That’s it for this update. Peace out kids.

In Conclusion

Sunday, August 03, 2003

Yow, I just got back from a LAN party. The game of the evening was, once again, Warcraft 3. And, once again, Nathan reigned supreme. You'd think after all these years we would simply roll over an acept our fates. Oh no, definitely not. It simply makes us all the more eagre to rush to a swift and deadly pounding.

Whats even more amusing is that I'm still in the top three players in our group.
