   Pawn out of the box, now. I wonder what music it played?

     A good question to ponder upon deeply, I hadn’t thought about that but now I’ll have to find one!

     I was whistling the classic Jack in the Box tune right before I read this.

   Great comic Hjörtur! That’s a BIG jack-in-the-box.

   Ha what a fright!!! The green & purple go well together. You seem to have a knack for picking the right colours to use.

   I see you have GASP installed now with the checkbox. I have found it to be fantastic. My spam went from heaps to only the occasional human spammer.

     Seeing a plug-in on your web page is the best recommendations for a plug-in

     I’ve been getting a little more spam than usual but it can be very annoying.

   Hahaha… I was always a bit frightened of those toys, too. I think it had something to do with the fact I knew the surprise was coming… just not when! Wonderful colors, too… and I really like how the pawn has jumped right out of the border! Very cool!

     You described it perfectly! The anticipation when you wind the box up is the most exciting part. Thanks for commenting on the borders.

   Those pawns are so inventive! I agree with Tony, your colors really sparkle. This would make a fun t-shirt!

     Thank you,
     I’m getting more comfortable with the colors. At first I always saw them as black and white and talking a lot but now I grow more fond of them in color and silent.

   I was so afraid of Jack-In-The_boxes when I was a kid. I didn’t like surprises too much.

     I can imagine, The jack the box is always more surprising since you know the surprise is coming but not when it is coming.
