What can I say, other thanSinking Ship kicked off it's second year with a bang! Although it didn't start out that way. While most of the strips for the first year had been done during the summer of 1999, I now found that if I wanted to continue Sinking Ship, I would have to do so on a weekly basis. Well, I was in charge of SUTV, the campus TV station, I was working (..oh yeah, I had classes, too) In the end, I thought Sinking Ship would just be an occasional feature. Well, that all changed the first week. The panel was a parody of a ridiculous ad the University put out, which was based on a student survey which allegedly found students didn't drink very much. Well, that just had to be lampooned. And the response was phenomenal. I had never gotten much of a response from the student body before, but now people were stopping me on campus, telling me how much they loved the panel. From that moment on I was hooked. Sinking Ship survived.
