I was just going to suggest the following: Now that we know how long it takes Mookie to produce a strip, we can measure ourselves against him. So this weekend, we sit down to write and draw Monday's strip, and upload it at some point on Sunday, preferably before the Sneaky Gate is opened, and say how long it took us.
Then we see if anyone wrote or drew something worse than Mookie and laugh at these people and their strips, as well as - most likely - Mookie and his.
Who's in?
