: Jack Venooker/New Mexico phone debacle: letters, documents, sketch by Jack (May 1981, in original envelope)-- I debated just dumping this, but Jack was so central to my life for so many years in so many ways -- best friend in college, one of the four most vital to my pursuing my comics career and getting into Joe Kubert School, I met my first wife Nancy aka Marlene through him, etc.-- that this record of our first big falling-out seemed relevent. In short, Jack and Kate were have their first child (Sarah) and had no phone and no credit to get a phone with. I allowed them to use my name to get a phone -- and then got bitten of the ass when Jack tried to stiff ME with THEIR overdue bills! We eventually settled all this, but it was one of many occasions in which my good nature got me into hot water when friends ‘used’ me, and one of the few with documentation remaining. I’ll leave it at that… we survived, though our friendship later (in the 1990s) succumbed to another debacle I won’t get into. We later mended fences enough to collaborated, in a way, in two incarnations of an online discussion board collective Jack dubbed ‘The Kingdom,’ with my board called ‘The Swamp.’—S.B.]
