The only thing Bill ever asked of me was that I not reveal he had worked
on Pearls until all three of his strips had run. (And if you
haven’t yet seen those three strips, they can be found HE
RE, HE
RE, and HE

“Bill,” eh? Let's see this “Bill's” work …
Oh. Yeah. That Bill! No need
to hit you over the head with it.

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
