Hello, I have taken up the glorious task of representing [[The Paper]]. You know, that personified sheet of paper that comes down at the end of nearly every [[Strong Bad Email]]. As for my duties, I am currently a forum administrator over at [http://www.strongfans.com StrongFans Forum] but I still try to be faithful here as well. I actively contributed on <font face="Old English Text MT, Verdana" font size=4>[http://old.hrwiki.org Ye Olde Wiki]</font> a few months after I discovered the world of Homestar Runner when [[the process]] was the newest Strong Bad Email, circa July [http://web.archive.org/web/20031203005304/http://hrwiki.joeyday.com/ 2003].

==Future after Strong Bad Email #173?==

===Is obsolescence in the distant future?===
+
-
 
+
-
In [[montage]], we learn that Strong Bad will be replacing The Paper with an inkjet version come Strong Bad Email #173. Hopefully [[The Brothers Chaps]] will have forgotten about this by then. However, if they '''do''' remember, we can estimate how much longer The Paper has to live. Email #117 debuted on November 8th, 2004. Around a year later, we were at email #138. 138 - 117 = around 21 emails this past year. Therefore, the difference between 173 - 117 = 56 emails from the release of montage until the release of 173. 56 / 21 = 2.67 years after November 8th, 2004. That brings us to roughly around June of 2007 for the infamous email #173. However, some people will tell you that TBC were obviously joking when they wrote about The Paper in montage, as the caption uses words in the past tense, including "stuck" and "upgraded".
