Grandpa's Thoughts: Chimpy Is Awesome
Evil Robots' Fourth Anniversary

This is evilrobots.com's fourth anniversary! Whoo-hoo! Congratulations to us!

Instead of writing a more self-congratulatory piece about how great we are for being around for all these years, I thought it was necessary to pay homage to one aspect of the web site that makes is better than it was one year ago - haiku!

It seems that every year we are able to add something special to our line-up. In 2002, we were graced with the presence of our new staff writer, Chimpy. As you already know, Chimpy is responsible for our "Haiku You" series, among other things. His diligence and wit make each issue more better. Also, Chimpy's poetry inspires me to draw single panel comics to accompany them, and I like the extra challenge every month.

We're lucky to have Chimpy as a new addition to our regular staff. He joins the ranks of Bigfoot, Justy and Lucky as regular contributors who make your lives worth living.
