The new backgrounds are working out great. I'm enjoying writing new characters all the time, it's my goal at one point to have all my characters recognized as a sovereign nation unto themselves. Viva La Bored and Evil!
Been really back into the comedy thing lately. Comedy Central Records is awesome, they release some of the best comics material that normally might never get released. The new Jim Gaffigan is awesome and I'd like the new Todd Barry (I saw him in New York City once, funny guy). They've also released Mitch Hedberg, Dave Attell, Dane Cook, Lewis Black and others.
