"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Comment by Sandi Wedemeier on July 10, 2012 at 6:49pm: Neil - you are a man among intellectual men, sir. I have been wondering of any Trashpo mail will be delivered by Hagbard Celine via the submarine to the nearest Potsmail office.

Comment by DKeys on July 10, 2012 at 6:21pm: altered version sent back to me

Comment by DKeys on July 10, 2012 at 6:20pm: Well, my card DID manage to arrive to Jesus via Richard Canard. He has altered it a way only Richard could--or should I say Carl, Ben, Dale, and Richard

Comment by DKeys on July 10, 2012 at 6:12pm: I'm glad you guys like the squirrel proposal. I really hope they respond. There's more art proposal letters posted at my blog at dianekeys.blogspot.com

KDJ, I think your squirrel would definately win as robosquirrel has brain damage. My husband was able to get in quite a few whacks at him:)

Comment by Neil Gordon on July 10, 2012 at 2:17am: Sandi-you mentioned two of my fave writers! You have super-dooper-trashpo intellect. DvS: Cyborg squirrels by TOXIS???? Do we have any Yeti trashpo fighters at the DKult New York state HQ???????

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on July 10, 2012 at 2:14am: She seems to write proposals fairly often, Neil, and isn't it great? It's tough for them to see the possibilities, but now and then at least she gets a polite reply. One day. ... Diane's got the spirit, she'll never give up, rah rah!

Comment by Neil Gordon on July 10, 2012 at 1:58am: DK;Love the proposal for hoarders anonymous! You could write these for a living your so good at it! Attitude Girl strikes again!

Comment by DKeys on July 9, 2012 at 8:09pm: Angie,I love the paper mache acorn idea. Was also thinking a large acorn pinata would be good. I will never feel the same about squirrels again. I don't even feel bad for the flattened ones I see anymore. I know it's wrong, but it's part of my process right now. Thank you guys for your support.

Comment by Sandi Wedemeier on July 9, 2012 at 7:21pm: Skworls are currently ruling my world. Acorn, anyone?
