		September 5, 2006, Welcome back, Brian, and a heartfelt congratulations on your wedding. You have a very beautiful bride! Your Matched.com site was delightful. That was really neat way to pull the wedding party together. And I must say that proposing in front of a photographer was a bit of brilliant. What a great way to get her reaction! Luckily it seems it was the one you were hoping for! You made such a beautiful couple, I'm sure you've made ALL of your family proud. --Brian Layman
		If you think that's brilliant, listen to this. Even the photographer (Brian's mother) didn't know what was about to happen. He just handed the camera to her and asked her to take a picture of the lucky couple at sunset. Little did she know. Brian's a sneaky one, he is.
		September 5, 2006, Congratulations on your marriage! --Will
		Thanks, Will!
		September 6, 2006, I've noticed that this weeks content is a day late. Monday's strip came out on tuesday...the mailbag came out on wednesday...wednesday's strip hasn't come out yet. So, the next strip will come out on thursday, Haiku Thursday will be on friday...oh, the madness of it all. I SINCERELY hope that you don't think your first anniversary is August 12, 2008. Speaking of the first anniversary, keep in mind that your 1st anniversary is the most imporant one to your wife. My wife, her sister, and my sisters, all told me essentially the same thing: The wedding day is a celebration of your marriage with everyone you know. The first anniversary is just from the husband to the wife, saying that you would do it all over again. The wife plans a huge majority of the wedding typically; the anniversary is all the husband. Start planning now. She will remember your anniversary for the rest of her life. --Bad Panda
		Advice noted, but really... if we could plan an entire wedding in seven months, we think Brian can rest for a little while before he starts planning anniversary.
		September 7, 2006, Okay, so I was wrong. It happens on EXTREMELY rare occasions. Rockwood technically made it on schedule. Although, technically, the Team was expecting someone else to come forward and draw the toons for this week. And I'm sure the Team is still pretty wiped from all wedding and honeymoon adventures. So, any delay is perfectly understandable. So sayeth the Bad Panda. --Bad Panda
		Ah-ha! Another person tricked by Brian's sneakiness! And this one was in plain sight!
		September 8, 2006, HAHAHAHAHA! Friday's strip...that geek. It was awesome. It took me 5 minutes to get past the way that guy looks to actually read the strip. Awesome. --Bad Panda
		Bad hair, coke bottle glasses, skinny neck... he really does have it all, doesn't he?
		September 8, 2006, You're really upset about Pluto, huh? --Rookeealding
		Actually, we think the whole debate is pretty silly. That thousands of people can get upset over whether or not a rock in space is called a planet is very strange. Similarly, that the IAU can just "unname" something and think that the general population will accept it is just as strange. The fact is that we've been telling people for over 70 years that there are nine planets. If you start trying to tell them now that there are only eight, someone's going to demand to know why number nine is missing. The IAU has, in a sense, delegitimized themselves with the public, who will NEVER not recognize Pluto as a planet.
		September 10, 2006, Did anyone else hear Eddie Deezen's voice on that IAU geek? --MikeTheLibrarian
		Well, we didn't, Mike, but who knows? There are a lot of people out there putting voices to our characters. Maybe Panda channelled Deezen during that five minutes of laughter.
