They stop this, but let Matt Stock go on with his rampage!!! I am getting even more fuckin pissed as the seconds go by...

Yes, I feel the same exact way, Jim. It's an extremely bitter and difficult pill to swallow.
Despite my age and cynicism, I had always liked to think that there was a loose fraternity of Wacky "players" - painters, concept artists, and executives - that supported and encouraged one another through mutual respect, creativity, humor, and trust - all united and working toward one common goal: to make people smile. This objective is not even that farfetched or difficult. In fact, it's simple. After all, this is the basis of Wackys, the very bedrock upon which they have stood for fifty years. And yet... And yet, even in Wackyland, we still find that it's dog eat dog, and rat eat rat.
This is not only a blow to Neil. This is not only a blow to fans and collectors. It's a blow to Wackys overall and everything they have stood for. You know, you get this kind of shit going on inside the castle and inevitably the entire fortress is going to become insecure and collapse in upon itself. Somewhere, somebody wasn't thinking too clearly. As with any great endeavor, one must strew seeds of excitement and creativity in every possible direction, not simply tear stuff up by the roots.
