A Map of Bananada from Cascadia Artpost

The stamps are lovely.  This card actually holds an invitation to an exhibition in honour of Anna Banana.  Sounds wonderful, I wish I could visit it.…

Diane Keys and the Birth of the Soupy Starchild

I received this petri dish from the Diane Keys Family (I'm presuming it was a family affair because of the team effort implied in the sentence, "We grew a baby 4u: David Jr." I have learned from past experience with Diane's work that it is not a good idea to rush into the opening of packages lest spring-loaded trashpo bounty escape across the floor. So for the…

Hey - I'm a blogger now (a limited returning to the mail-art universe)

While awaiting my 66th birthday I suddenly got sick with an infected kidney stone, got put in the hospital for 4 days, had my birthday at home, and now, 11 days after coming home I'm still not quite up to par energy and focus wise.

But I have received such wonderful mail-art since September 29th, I wanted to at least let everyone know how much I love(d) getting mail-art from many talented and friendly IUOMA people. I will surely be sending out my creations to all you sweet people…

The postal clerk said he would personally correct the issue today. I'll be pinging myself with a postcard this week to test it out.

If you got mail returned from my PO box, as of today it is supposed to be fixed. If it…
