In light of the tragic events in Oslo and on Utøya, Norway of July 22nd 2011, I will immediately suspend work on Quick Time Moral Choice #5. The reason for this is the theme of the strip could, in the aftermath of yesterday's senseless attack, be construed as making light of the notion of terrorism, something that was never my intention. It holds no direct allusion to the events of yesterday, or any other such cowardly action, nor is there any violence in it, but rather than releasing something that could be seen as poor taste by some, I will instead probably never realease it.
I do recognise my own inherent hypocrisy in this whole affair. After all, this is not the first time terror has struck, neither will it be the last. I freely admit that though I concider myself an empathic person, the arrival of terror on my native soil has personally hit me harder than other similar events of the past. For this I apologize.
This will not be the end of QTMC, though. I will continue to try to make people laugh, which is my sole objective in this project. But a strip titled number five will not see the light of day.

Back from holiday
Hey, do you remember about three weeks ago, when I posted, saying that I would try to have number 5 ready by the end of my vacation? You do? Do you also want to hear a funny story?
Yeah, that didn't happen...
Not the vacation, mind. That definetly happened. And I had a marvellous time, should you care. Don't worry, I know you don't. Bad news is that the strip is STILL not done. Good news, that the sketches are actually done, and only the soul-sucking tedium of cleaning them up and colouring them in Photoshop remains. Further bad news, I hate this part. So there you have it. I'm back to work again, to gift my readers with a smile or a snigger, or dare I dream, an actual chuckle.
