gapingvoid has been assimilated!

[ “Art Money”. Part of the Blue Mons­ter Series. Backs­tory from Steve and Kris etc.]
I’m plea­sed to announce that I have a new client. A small soft­ware con­cern in Red­mond, Washing­ton. An offshoot of the Blue Mons­ter con­ver­sa­tion we’ve been having.
So what has this car­toon got to do with soft­ware? I’ll explain later. Watch this space.

"Hugh's Daily Cartoon" Newsletter. A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.]. A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.

    Wow! The gaping­void to obli­vion.
    So, des­tiny has found you, huh? Sort of like when Johnny Depp (Cap­tain Jack Spa­rrow) accepts get­ting eaten up by the “beas­tie” at the end of the 2nd Pira­tes of the Carib­bean movie?
    Call it a hunch, but I don’t think obli­vion is in your future.
    Best wishes, Hugh! At least I can say, “I (barely..hardly…OK, not at all) knew you when.

  4. Oh, this will be fun! Are you going to Red­mond to get some insight? Tell them to get rid of the pos­ters in all the lob­bies. They suck. Rip them all down and put up one of yours. :-)

    Inte­res­ting start, com­pa­ring your new client to the Borg.
    I look for­ward to the results. Could they look a bit like “Seven”?

    Hope­fully you will now receive lots of sug­ges­tions from part­ners for car­toons to express the con­ver­sa­tion they want to be had with M$FT
