Dear Fike, much worse things than climate change will come to the inhabitants of the Earth, if they do not repent of their wickedness. I implore you to listen to Mary and, "Pray. Pray. Pray."

I recently read that Saint Padre Pio, like Saint Francis, had a great love and reverence for everything about nature.

I was told recently by De Villo Sloan to take my "bullshit," and leave IUOMA.
Similarly, Jayne B. Lyons told me yesterday that my content is inappropriate for this site.
These are not the only incidents I faced where people were against my inclusion of Catholicism in my art and my life happenings.
Well, even before Jayne commented on my post, I came across the apparition of the Virgin of Revelation to the Tram driver in Rome, Bruno Cornacchiola. In her…

Tarraa ta ta tarraaah! here goes nothing though I should say at first that I am not much in love with computers and only take to them as a last resort. To me they are like saws or alarm clocks; merely a convenient tool. Not that cutting something in half - or being on time - is without its pleasures but a blunt tooth or missed appointment will hardly ruin a life.
It has been a sunny morning and I have been multi-tasking (again) which is to say that I have been waiting for the…

info IUOMA
Somehow people always think that if a group of artists work together that then there must automatically be some kind of organisation that coordinates it all. Well, in mail art there are many groups working together. These groups themselves also work together, but there is NO organisation that arranges all the things that go on in the mail art network. The I.U.O.M.A. is the Union that mail artists can become a member of. The Union has no rules. Everybody who is active in mail art and hears about the Union can become a member just by saying so.
In 1988 the idea of the IUOMA was born. I invented this name and made forms for people to become a member of this (fictive) union. About 300 mail artists reacted in a year, and official membership cards were made, even a official Union Magazine was published. Anybody who was a member of the Union could also claim a special function within the Union.
Even today, people still join the Union. And somehow it gives power, to say that YOU are a member of the International Union too. The Main address of the Union is at the TAM-address, P.O.Box 1055, 4801 BB - Breda - Netherlands. It is just the center for archiving all the things that are going on. But I am not in control of the Union. I just invented it. And to make it official, I made myself General-President of this Union. Sure was impressive when I travelled to the USSR in 1991 and went to visit some friends there who were also members of this Union........
Today online on Ning there are thousands of members. On December 2nd 2018 the 5000th member joined in.
