Autumn 2008 Mike Art

Peliocles is the name of the rightful ruler of Rhodes in Sergio Leone's directorial debut: The Colossus of Rhodes. Sergio went on to direct Clint Eastwood in three Spaghetti Westerns. I just saw A Fistful of Dollars and it was cool when Clint said, "Bravo." Classic stuff. I hope someday my "Peliocles" will be regarded as a classic work of art of the 21st Century.

Penthesileia was the Queen of the Amazons, killed by Achilles at Troy. She went down as a hero, Zeus bless her!

Congratulations to Eric Smith for beating me in our duel for prosecutor on 11.4.8. I hope he will forgive the anger in "Planet Eris," but the truth is a lot of my signs disappeared, and Chad Selweski of The Macomb Daily had the nerve to say I was not a "respectable" candidate for prosecutor, and singled out my Plutonian drawings to call my candidacy a "joke." Chad, if you do not respect me, the feeling is mutual until you apologize, as I have requested. Grow up, Chad. You are not above apologizing because you have a column.
