Three forthcoming announcements

this is quite interestingThis post is to alert you to the fact that three forthcoming announcements are to be made on this blog tomorrow. They relate to this website and my cartoon work. I am hoping that by posting with an air of mystery that expectation will be heightened and that an avid audience will tune in for the particulars. By highlighting the words ‘three forthcoming announcements’ in bold type above I am hoping that any who skim read the posts will be stopped in their tracks and will be caused to want to find out what the unusual boldness is about. By emphasising that fact that there will be three announcements I am hoping that any who would shrug off a single announcement will log on knowing that even if two of the announcements are rubbish and uninteresting at least one of the announcements will be worth the time and energy involved in tuning in.

Thank you.

    Three! Three announcements in less than 24 hours time. I can barely contain my excitement.

    Three wise men
    The Holy Trinity
    … and Three announcements.

    (Is that the appropriate reverence with which to treat this blog entry ;) )

    Dave, that’s just cruel. How on earth do you expect your public to sleep knowing that there’s not one, not two, but three announcements in the offing?

    Needless to say, I’m beside myself.

  3. Nefertiki says:

    …and three blind mice, 3 wishes, and er, 3 bottles on the wall….

    Jack, at least you haven’t as long to wait as I have — it’s only 4:07PM EST here.

    But don’t worry, Dave usually delivers. But once he took too long to come up with guesses and when he finally butt in with the answer (I think it was something about his water heater) we were talking about something entirely different and were indifferent to what he had to say. Remember?

    I hope I will be working in the computer centre sometime tomorrow or I’ll have to wait ’till evening and I’m not sure I can stand so much suspense!!!

  5. St says:

    Curses. I wanted to make three announcements tomorrow. Will have to wait until 2017 now as I’m busy all the other days.

  6. Michelle says:

    It’s tomorrow now, and the suspense is mounting!!

  7. Tractor Girl says:

    This is like the parents saying you have to wait until a reasonable time before you can start ripping the wrapping.

    Dave – it’s well into the morning and so can we have our announcements now pleeeeeeeease.

  8. Dave says:

    I’ll make the announcements about lunchtime as I am terribly busy up until that point and there is nothing worse than one rushed announcement, let alone three rushed announcements.

    Mind you, I do have lunch at some odd times.

  9. Michelle says:

    My postcards have just arrived, thanks Dave!
    I’m sure you must be starting to feel hungry by now… about time for lunch I’d say!

  10. Serena says:

    Michelle – Absolutely! As a student, I fully endorse the flexibility of lunchtime. (Although today I am discouraging a late lunch by Dave!)
