Meh, another week won't kill me.

I'll be looking for Brian's triumphant return next week, then.

Just so this thread doesn't become some horrible breeding ground for weird speculation, we're just still brainstorming some new stuff and working out a few other things and thought that a little more time would be good to make sure it's nice and polished for Brian's debut.

Hehe, I wasn't surprised about the delay, though. After so many weeks of Brian missing his previous weekly feature, Answerbrian being delayed has a nice feel of familiarity to it. Wink

Hahaha. Actually, it really has nothing to do with that; we're just being fussy about it and figured another week of polish wouldn't hurt.

*snaps fingers* Aww, nutbunnies.

This is a bit disappointing, but highly understandable. I look forward to reading the first edition next week. ^^

What kind of weird speculation could people possibly come up with?

-That Brian wasn't as good as they hoped,
-That Zac left abruptly and Brian didn't get enough notice,
-That Brian is really, really slow,
-That the kittens and bunnies would only work for one man and the negotiations are taking longer than expected.

You know, the usual.

I hear those flake unions are a real bear to deal with, too.

Definently looking forward to next friday then! Smile

I always look forward to fridays despite always having to work them (evil coworkers...grr) because of the answerman column. It always makes the night go by faster!

Expected, polish never hurts...

Still, I'm quite heavily anticipating it. I dunno if I ever posted, but when you announced it last week, I got quite interested learning Brian's gonna write it now.

I love the column in general, but The Click! was my second favorite, purely because of his commentary. Seeing how it transfers onto Hey Answerman! I expect should be incredibly entertaining.

The wait'll suck but it'll be worth it...

It shouldn't take too long for his new rabbit pen to be populated should it? Did you loan him a few new rabbits? ... (JOKING!!!!)

There are plenty of unresolved topics for the Answerman Column so 'Brian' should have his hands full pretty quickly

Very Happy .
