Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

If you need any help with anything let me know, I'm down. I really like the theme of this issue.

Richter

I like it!  I'm in for whatever.

There will still be plenty of such material for future issues.  Intermitts wise I'll put in wherever my stuff is wanted or relevant.  There's no real reserving of forfeiting of a whole series.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I'll see what I can do about whipping up some fake ads. I'll take a look at my dad's old survivalist magazines for inspiration.


I am not "full of hate" as if I were some passive container. I am a generator of hate, and my rage is a renewable resource, like sunshine.

I agree with Richter, no reason to consider yours forfeited.  But if you'd like to contribute to this one you're more than welcome, just let me know.

I could write up a authentic looking government 'in the event the shit hits the fan' article/graphic I'm not sure at this point. Its just an idea here.

I have a story in my head, but it is waiting for some quiet time to actually write it. It might not be for a while, because now that I have an assistant my days are largely occupied with actually working, and evenings with kids and friends, who all seem to be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder or something because they're all depressed. Not the kids, the friends.

No problem, I want to try to get this issue out by sometime in early February, so there's still plenty of time.

Aha, so that's what the .bg in e-mail means!  I can't wait to see the translation, let me know how it goes.

Also, I did a mock-up of a potential cover for this issue, what does everybody think?

A little more spacing around the title would be good, but then you'd have to shrink the font a little, or at least put the title diagonally.  Tricky... But I do like the "Wait, is that a dismembered head in the corner?

I like it a lot! I agree with GA, a little more space around the title.
