Thanks for the FDK, everyone! And thanks for the trailer, Sara!
So glad to see you guys are enjoying the story. It's just getting started, but I'm proud of this one.
Nice to see some of the gags and throwaways are doing well, too. "Fortress of Sewertude" just kind of popped to mind, but once it did, Phillip and I couldn't resist it.

Makes me want to sing. Wonder why?
You know... I honestly don't remember if I was thinking about the song at the time. (That's actually next entry...) But hey, if it gets you singing, I'm not going to object.
Are you going to let Bobby meet Bibbo, by the way?
Well, you'll have to see... but don't expect too much on this score. Sorry. Bibbo is more of a background character, even in this story.
So, will we get to see every character from the series join the exclusive club (at least, those not in prison)?
lol, not quite. But there are some more recruits still to come.
And I LOVE how you explain Bobby's almost supernatural ability to ferret out information.
Thanks. To me, that's a lot of what this story is about: filling in a lot of the little gaps in the series. There's more to it than that, but I did set out to answer every question that I could think of.
I read this story on the DVD and it's good. You really ought to write long stories more often, Paul. Your humorous little short stories are always wonderful, of course: you have a tremendous talent for comedy, but something like this showcases your talent for other kinds of writing.
Wow. Thanks, Nan. High praise, indeed.
Unfortunately, I'm not really in control of what I write. It all depends on what ideas occur to me. Each story is exactly as long as it needs to be.
Anyway, thanks again to everyone who commented! Part 2 is coming right up!
