'Nuff Said!

Sit your kids down today and show them this old man's video. Ask them to explain to you what he is saying beyond all the references to Marvel. What is Stan Lee's POINT here? What message should your kid get from this and don't you think it's of enough value to make sure you teach them this important lesson whenever you get the chance? I know few of you breeders will get what I am saying but this is wisdom from maybe the most creative man who ever thought up a story. He created the Marvel STYLE of storytelling and those were stories that rejected bigotry and focused on heroism and sacrifice. Truth be told this was the same speech I read when I was TEN and it changed my life. I don't hang with the racists and the bigots and the hillbillies and the Nazis and the trumps because Stan Lee offered me a better world first and in that, it has made all the difference. Thanks for all you taught us about life and being cool and always making me feel welcome in the Marvel Family. Respect Stan. Excelsior!
