Haha this is amazing! I loved it, in school I code and I know a teacher exactly like doug! I loved the simpleness of it, and how it's just based on the whole 'semi colon' catastrophe. I also love the change from chapter 1 to chapter 59 for some reason. Just really made me smile and think 'this guys good'. Keep up the good work!

I know how it is to write something, and then have nobody read it. So, what I do is I go to the front page, and if something doesn't have ANY hearts, comments, or reviews, I read it, and comment. Would you pass it on, and leave everyone that you do this to this message? It could make a huge difference. Thanks!
