I've been thinking more and more about internet mini serials like the dreadful one I posted a few days ago, and thought I'd youtube this flash version of my old Charbucks saga.
I had a big spill at Starbucks when Pat was waiting in line to hear Steve Jobs address MacWorld. I was going to take him a latte. But after waiting and waiting when I got mine I spilled it everywhere (trying to juggle one of those egg-carton like trays to hold two lattes). The kind clerk made me another one and didn't charge me. I gave him a big tip (but I was scared of the other people waiting in line).
Thanks! Linda, Anita's using that Valley Girl voice I told you about, that's no longer available. I tried to fix one of Whinsey's lines and couldn't remember where I'd gotten her voice.
Ha! I especially like how you worked a scene from "Bimbo's Initiation" into the end. Now every time I drive by a Starbucks I'm gonna remember what's REALLY going on downstairs... :D
I'll see how far I get with another chapter. The serial is written, but character animation takes a while... please, sally g, don't hold your breath. (It's 106 here at almost 4:30- not good!)

You got to watch it with those spills! ;)

I really like the blog serial idea: we could do cliffhangers. Waiting for the next installment with bated breath.

OK, is the character animation just about done?
You betcha!
