ha ha ha - it does seem odd doesn't it? Adolescent flatulence humour - but he did write it in HS. (Though I will admit, that most of the adult males I know still find it immensely entertaining...%_^)

How interesting-funny that people would be so offended by the word *hit. If only it were that easy to offend these days

Isn't it though?! You should read him - he's voooondeva! Amazingly Irreverent & funny as hell. Or you may have already heard of the brilliant "Ubu?" If not: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Jarry

Progenitor of " 'Pataphysics:"
" 'Pataphysics deals with 'the laws which govern exceptions and will explain the universe supplementary to this one.' In 'pataphysics, every event in the universe is accepted as an extraordinary event.' "

And: Indeed/Agreed!

With you on that Diane.  sheerness, transparency, barely there. Nice work Claire.

Fantastic quote- I suppose I agree with him as my art is no doubt 'monster' art.  I love anything transparent, sheer, barely there so this really appeals to me!

One of the first pieces you sent me inspired the idea DK (these "Vestiges on Vellum" books)...

 
"It is conventional to call 'monster' any blending of dissonant elements. I call 'monster' every original inexhaustible beauty."
