I have come to the end of me.
Unless a DEDICATED FAN gives me at leats $100 American by midnight tonight, I will be forced to kill one of your beloved characters.


The 1920’s was a revolutionary time for inventions. The hairdryer was invented in 1920. Before this, women attached a hose to the exhaust of a vacuum to blow themselves dry. Although this worked, the invention of the hairdryer made things a lot easier for women.
This is very similar to the impacts Steve Jobs has made on our culture.
Granted we had computers and ways of playing and buying music before Apple, but Job’s revolutionized these electronics to make things more convenient for people. Itunes has made buying music from your own computer simple without cheating the record companies out of royalties. Q Tips were also invented in 1920 which made cleanings your ears simple compared to burning cones to pull the wax from your ears.
The 1920s was indeed America’s “growth spurt”. Improvements were made in fashion, technology, transportation, and manufacturing. Maybe the biggest improvement of the times was the automobile with a combustible engine. Henry Ford’s automobile created more jobs and easier transportation. Apple has indeed created many jobs in the technology industry. The apple computer, ipod, iphone, and ipad has made it possible to create movies on your own computer, download and transport music, revolutionized the world of cell phones, and made information portable and accessible.

I thought of getting one of those Whackum Tablets like my -exnephew has. He’s a big “motion designer” and used to be one of my main “ins” into the industry. But now he’s an “ex-“”in” and old Steve has to find his own way in the world of entertainment. So far it’s been great! My fans have not disappointed me nearly as much as they could have. Still, if you want to prove what a great fan YOU CAN BE, why don’t you mail me your Whackum tablet and I’ll use it to make more great comics for you, and all your young friends, to enjoy!
I know there’s been some confusion, and even some deleted comments, about whether I am a “Cartoonist” or a “Cartoon Artist.” I assure you that I am both.
The local news station refused the interview. Even for a man on the street! But I persevere, because I am both:
Steve Junior
Cartoonist
and
Steve Junior
Cartoon ARTIST
May the laughs be with you!

I hope my rare foray into “continuity comics” will not confuse too many of my long-term readers! Please sound off in the comments below if today’s adventure of Milgram, Ultra, and Tuskegee “blew your mind” and let ol’ Steve Junior soothe you.

I am not in the best of moods right now to say the least thing. My financial difficulties are continuing at a rate faster than I thought they ever could and I am not sure there is any way out of this nightmare (at least not as long as my Paypal account remains frozen so I can’t set up a donation button and ask for help in paying my basic rent and food costs from some charitable readers *wink* *wink* :-P) Monday morning was perhaps the lowest point of all as I received a call… on a holiday celebrating the American discoverer and hero no less! Can you beat that? Anyway the call was from A ROBOT. The ELECTRICITY COMPANY… or should I say from a ROBOT employed by that company designed to harrass innocent cartoonists and other important local figures who are just trying to make an honest living and bringing laughs and hilarity to the population. And since electricity is pretty important in the development of my entertainment properties these days of which Stanford Webcomics Experiment is only the least of the things I have planned… well…
Although my Paypal equipment is not currently active I know that there are some honest readers out there who are maybe interested in trying to help me out of this present crisis. However I am not comfortable with offering my personal information on an online forum. So here is how we can work this situation out together. Please make out a check for any amount greater than $50 to the name of:
STEVE JUNIOR MEMORY EXTRACT GINSENG LLC (currently my business bank account is keyed to this name I am sorry for the confusion!!!!)
Then please call the Hayti City Clerk’s office at this number:
(573) 359-0632
They will be able to ask you subtle questions in order to determine that you are a real person, and I have left numerous messages with them letting them know that if anyone calls offering me money that they should collect the phone number from that person and then call me letting me know the number so I can get in touch with you. Please when I call you to give you my address for sending the money to send the check via EXPRESS MAIL ONLY because anything else will be probably too slow in getting to Hayti, MO for my needs!!! It will be about a $17.00 charge with all the confirmations and insurance you will have to buy but when the comic is taking off a little more than it is now I can pay you back for the hassle of this.
Thank you and God Bless you!!!!
I am also accepting commissions!
May the Laughs Be With You,

There were sad times in the Stanford Webcomics Experiment this week, and I was forced to let my intern, Ms. Maslach, go, for gross malfeasance and obstructionism. I had high hopes for this young lady who is not only a knockout and true-blue in terms of her filing abilities and her memory for what kinds of creamer I will and won’t accept in my morning coffee (Yep, readers, you guessed it!! Steve Junior is JUST LIKE HIS CHARACTERS in their love of coffee! Howdja guess???), and who from the moment I met her in the parking lot of the Shoney’s in downtown Hayti for a job interview breakfast after our initial contacts over the St. Louis Craig’s List (she was willing to drive in all the way from the Big City just to intern with li’l ol’ me! Can you imagine?) I knew she was really a keeper not just as an employee but as a woman you would be glad to know. But she wanted this comic to update only five times a week! She’s gone now. The experiment is a success, and it WILL continue.
May the Laughs Be With You!

Milgram! That’s hardly polite! Ah, well, though, when they make ’em like Tuskegee, who could blame him?
Well, I’ve been working hard all week this first week of comics here at the old The Stanford Webcomics Experiment. I think old Steve Junior is going to do some serious relaxing tonight, maybe taking time to truck on down to (that’s a sixties reference to cartoonist Rodney Crumb for young folks!) the highway to Stuckey’s for some pecan rolls and to put a dent in the latest paperback on my shelf. Right now I am devouring James Clavell’s classic Noble House, which I read once around the time it came out but sometimes when a lot of time goes by you forget lots of the details in a really good story and its like you get to read the whole thing again fresh from the top. Who knows, maybe one day thirty years from now people will say the same thing about The Stanford Webcomics Experiment! *sends up a little prayer*
May the Laughs Be With You and I will see you tomorrow! I will see you tomorrow and every day!

Oh no! Looks like these kids got a little bit more than they bargained for when they gave their friend coffee…
Some people are wondering what my opinion is on merchandising, now that the strip is off and rolling a little bit. I don’t have a firm investment philosophy on the matter yet, but one thing I can tell you is that I take intellectual property issues very seriously, and if anyone tries to bootleg shirts with my characters all I can tell you is you are going to be standing at the business end of a very particularly firm lawsuit is all I can say. I know there is a demand for shirts but I do not know yet exactly how I am going to meet that demand, so I would prefer the marketplace not be flooded with shoddy imitations before chickens come home to roost in a manner of speaking.
May the Laughs Be With You until I will see you tomorrow!!!!
