Yes. If anyone goes to a country and he knows what the beliefs of that country are, he should be willing to accept those beliefs, not necessarily adopt them, or why would he want to stay there. Missionaries go to countries and try to preach their religion, but they do it peacefully and they have to do a certain amount of accepting the beliefs of the people they are working with before they can teach them a new way of thinking. I don't care for people of other beliefs being here if they don't cause problems, but if they don't like the system, they need to leave not change the system because freedom (our system)was here first. I think people of different cultures can learn a lot from each other, and ALL people ought to be able to be proud of their heritage.
I think America is probably already a lost cause. We have already compromised our principles too much and now we stand for nothing. We are already on the decline. Our educational system is failing, our economy is failing, our political system is corrupt. I hope I don't see us be taken over in my lifetime. But Christians are now close to being in the minority and if they start allowing gay marriages we'll fall even faster. Many of the world countries hate us. I don't think we'll see our country be any "greater" in our lifetimes than it has already been and I'm afraid we will see it be much worse. I think the standard of living is going down. People may have a lot more material stuff, but they are in debt head-over-heels.
Our country shouldn't change to fit everybody's needs. It's our country. They should mold into our style or not complain. They choose to live here, if they don't like it, they can go somewhere they like better.
Michelle says you probably won't be up Sat. Sorry we won't get to see you. What about the next week-end? Do you want to get to-gether and eat?
Love,
Mom

| NOT the Actron I'm working on |
[Aug. 13th, 2006|05:00 pm] |
As 2006 marks the 20th anniversary of publication of the very first issue of Actron, I have elected to begin work on issue #242. That would be roughly, chronologically accurate -- where I would be at -- if I'd actually been putting the book out monthly since 1986. Of course, I haven't been putting the book out monthly since 1986. In fact, I haven't even completed a full Actron story since sometime in 1990.
It's exceedingly unlikely that I'll go back and fill in all the missing issues leading up to #242.
And no, these are not examples of the current work in progress.

I expect this new issue will be about thirty pages long, including fake advertisements and character biographical information in the back. The script is mostly laid out, but I'm still plugging pages into the middle.
There is a possibility the whole thing will be colored by silenceinspades, if we can pry our lawyers off of each other long enough to let us sign the damned paperwork. (Our lawyers are in love.)
Rupert Murdoch and MySpace.com will hold no interest in the finished intellectual property.
Pictured at right is the cover to the 1990 reboot of Actron. That was volume 3, and it lasted for six issues (only one of which -- the first -- survives). As you can see, my pen ran out of ink partway through finishing up the logo. Since chances to photocopy my work were few and far between in those days, I had to paste up the cover and reproduce it as-is (as-was?).
Come to think of it, a lot of my old projects ended up that way, circulated in an unfinished state.

As usual, none of the other people named on the cover actually contributed any work to the issue.
I've located what appears to be a fairly decent print-on-demand operation that specializes in comic books. In a few months time, this 20th anniversary commemorative farse wil probably be available for purchase.
Here is a sample of the first page, in progress:

| I'm not really Stanley Lieber. |
[Apr. 24th, 2006|05:32 am] |

This is intended to be listened to as an album, in its entirety, from start to finish. Some friends are creating video clips to accompany many of the songs, which will be added here as they are completed. The files listed above are available for streaming, and also for download in lossless format, at archive.org. CDs will be made available in the usual manner -- please contact me if you would like one mailed to you.
For now, please enjoy.
