5.154 - Why "Tangerine?"

NEW SUPERFOGEYS.COM PRE-LAUNCH DAY 3!
(The following is taken from the new superfogeys.com
This is it–day 4 of the new superfogeys.com pre-launch extravaganza! The site has whole new look and every day this week features new SF material. I'll also be highlighting one of the new features of this amazing site that Th3rd World (with a bit of input and some artwork from me) put together.
You'll notice as you scroll down, over on the right hand side of the screen, is a section labeled “News.” Not much to say here except that, while I'll always be announcing major news items in my daily comments, this is the go-to spot if you want quick access to the major events.
Right below that (and up the tabs as well) is the “Blog” section. This won't be a place where I just duplicate the “Brock's Comments.” Instead, this will be a special repository for things that probably have nothing to do with SF. Stories from my life, general musings, list of favorite songs, etc. Y'know, a blog.
As such, your mileage may vary with it, but before I ever started wrting comics I was writing short essays and movie reviews for the local paper. Writing is my first love, with drawing a close second. It's important to me to have an outlet for that. Hopefully, somebody will care. We'll see.
Come on back tomorrow when I wrap this series up and finally shut up about how great this site is!
Gigcast Interview #2
JT Shea and Scott Gallatin, podcasters, gentlemen and friends of webcomics, did me the great favor of letting me back on the Gigcast for the second time this week. We talked a bit about the new site, the third SuperFogeys book, the current SF storyline and more. They tell me it'll be going up sometime tonight.
If you have it, a quick search for “Gigcast” on iTunes will yield the proper results. Or, you could just go the Gigcast home page right over here. It's show number 160!
Tomorrow and Next Week:
Tomorrow wraps up the 3-page preview of “Cellmates” with more terrific art from Chip Skelton. Be sure and come on back for that. Next week will feature two more SF intallments in their usual slot on Tuesday and Thursday, but be sure and also stop in on Wednesday for a special treat. I'm not saying what it is, but it's…different. And funny. At least, I think it's pretty funny. You've never seen SF through these eyes before!
As for the proper tease for next week's strip? Gonna have to come back tomorrow for that. See you then!

Looks like the nurse is falling for Tangerine.

amanda - Hey, Jerry's only saying the obvious. You gotta admire that. kavonn - Yeah, Jerry not such a fan of Tangerine. You'll understand why soon. Poki rat - I could not agree more. I'd stay as far away from Tangerine as possible. rufus edge - So glad you're likin' Tangerine. I've been surprised by the reception overall. People seem to really dig him. mattchee- See what I mean, Rufus? Thanks for taking a looksee at the new site, man! ToonmanAZ - Oh, totally agreed. I've always liked Jerry quite a bit. Chip - Glad for that, my friend. Smik - Poor nurse. Everyone else is taken by Tangerine, why can't she be? EEN - I think Tangerine is probably about as old as Jerry. Don't quote me on that though. He seems younger probably because he still has color in his hair and he stayed active the longest.

Oooh nurse extra is showing some personality! This should be interesting. How old is Tangerine? He seems younger then the other fogeys. Congrats on your second interview.

Ugh, DD's issues are giving me issues. But it sounds like he wastes a lot of perfectly good fruit. Jerry nailed him. And the nurse? No taste.

Lovin' it!
ToonmanAZ at 11:24PM, Sept. 17, 2008
Jerry is awesome!

Hahaha! Great. I think Tangerine is my favorite. Been away for a bit, catching up. I'll have to check over at the SF site too... as always great stuff! Tangerine... love it!
rufus_edge at 10:24PM, Sept. 17, 2008
Tangerine is getting better and better! Also, I missed commenting on the last strip so I want to use this opportunity to salute Chip on his great work!
Poki_rat at 10:18PM, Sept. 17, 2008
She's impressed by that? Gross XP This guy has too many issues.
kavonn at 10:09PM, Sept. 17, 2008
And Nurse gets some character development - yay! That's an unhappy face Jerry's wearing.
amanda at 10:03PM, Sept. 17, 2008
Heh - well *someone* had to say it. Leave it to Jerry to lack the tact ^.^ Valhalla's got some hot nurses.
