THE JUGGLING CRIB is a juggling related comic strip featuring some local
jugglers here in Stockholm, Sweden. In the main cast you can watch bad
imitations of jugglers like Elias Hedlund, Wes Peden, Peter Åberg and Jay
Gilligan amongst others.*

LOL, Elias. That was indeed funny. Not only that, but I don't even speak
Swedish to understand Jay's punchline. If we could get a translation up
in here, that'd be awesome! I can laugh again!

I liked it. It could go somewhere. I'm not sure where.

in square one, the black t-shirt guy says just fine, thanks (giant
thanks)

in square 4 the "der hahn ist tot" is german. I think it's also the
name of a movie, but I can't speak german.

in the last square "fiskelina" is fishing line. the kind you use with
a fishing pole.

Nicely done!

Build an RSS feed for this please!

It'd be great to have this strip pop up in my feed reader once a week without
me having to click on any links or anything.

Whilst I still think it would be great if you produced an RSS feed, I
have temporarily worked around the problem by throwing together some
filthy perl which generates an RSS feed based on your web page, so
I should get The Juggling Crib delivered to my monitor automagically
whenever a new episode hits the web page. Rah!

If anyone is interested, contact me off froup and I'll give you the URL
(and a brief rundown of why my feed generator sucks compared to a feed
generated by Elias - come on mate, go the extra inch and a half ;-)

I don't really know how to make an RSS feed and I'm a lazy bastard so I
don't feel like searching for the info on how to make one. But if you or
someone else could show me how it is done or point me to a tutorial or
something I might give it a shot.

This is a pretty good tutorial:
http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2175271
It's easy to follow without being over simplified, and contains almost
enough to get you started.

The only thing it doesn't mention which would be relevant to the juggling
crib is that to have an image show up in your rss feed, you need to
html entity encode the image tags. so rather than:

<img src="mypic.gif">
you need
&lt;img src="mypic.gif"&gt;

If that doesn't help, replace "usenet" with "lp" and email me - I'll
point you in the direction of my feed - you can use that as a starting
point, but do something more sensible when it comes to episode titles
and descriptive text.
