Valentine Mark Herman's Comments

a card is on its way to you.....

I am so pleased!  Now to some early morning grading. (Yuck!.)

Val,

Did the fork arrive glued to the paper?  I hope so......  I had some trouble with it.   Soon, I will ask you more about your arty slides......... Have a great day.

Thanks Val!  I look forward to showing your work at the Cyborg exhibition in January.

I made you an arty slide awhile back....  I just need to put it into the post.

Val, don't you think you have gone a bit too far now? I think you have. Is this fun? Really? I think it's not funny anymore. Please stop.

Please stop, Val.  Enough!  It's gotten creepy.  No more....Please!

I like you and your mail :)

Hi Val! No it's not my cat... It's an altered postard... Thanks for your very kind comments for the Doodles!

I don't want to be part of this, Val, stop it.  

I once received a piece of the Elgin Shroud from Der Velo Sloan, but it came with some complications:

And the sad part is that in the end, I had to get rid of it;

It only starts on december 7, so you have time to plan ;)

ArenA is the youth hostel, isn't it? The stadion might sue me for their very original (not) idea. In december there is an exhibition in the AmsterdamMuseum about people having met number 14. As he is 65 this year. Maybe Suus in Mokum will visit ;))

Oh you rotten greedy Val! I would have loved an Easter Egg...

I like your take on bricolage but I did a take instead on post modernism, structuralism and other isms which are very easy to mock. I think I should find a way to put it up on my page. So everybody will know I really am off my trolley.

That's it!! I've cracked the code==will be betting on 17 RED in roulette   wish me luck if I win big I'll give you some to buy Yuki a nice ring!!

Truthfully, I'm not much of a shopper either, and I don't think that woman would make great company! I think the animal was some kind of weasel - maybe a black-footed ferret?

Those ancient Chinese proverbs really were ahead of their time, weren't they?! I have not had the pleasure of making Mail Art Martha's acquaintance, I'll look her up.

Yuki is the fourth from the left in the top row. They hope to have her married and in the u.s. by the New Year. Yuki does not like shopping, as she makes all her own clothes,so you're safe there. She WILL insist on making all of YOUR clothes as well and it is a huge insult if you refuse.

I could definately see that being a Dean piece-found on the streets of Paris and glued down with his industrial glue. I'm glad I have not received one of these. I like your quotes--they should be bumper stickers. The dowry expectations have gone down considerably. You have held out so long and they see this as a negotiation tactic. They are only expecting paper products at the moment. No livestock is neccessary. Yuki is getting a bit long in the tooth and they fear she is becoming a spinster (she is 27) and do not want her to end up labeled a 'parasite single'. Please send sturdy paper plates soon! (and yes, that art was God awful. all that was lacking was glitter. I have none.)

Sorry about that, Lee Renaldo and Thurston Moore are the two guitarists from Sonic Youth. Ain't nothing wrong with Mr. Eddy! Going home soon, and just making a whole bunch of stuff.

Thanks, Val, it is good to be back...and in sunny Greece. We had ALL the weather you could imagine in France, even a horrid Mistral in Avignon! But it was also a fantastic trip and I collected many, many mail art omens along the way :-) I miss beautiful Sigean!
