    Hi Test! I've today your mail art. :-) Thank you. Happy new year!
    Best vishes, Cauli
  • Jennie Hinchcliff

    HeeBeeJeeBee Holidays! I love it -- thanks so much!
  • Jennie Hinchcliff

    You lived in SF?! When was that? It's quite possible that it's a very different city from when you were here, what with the dot-com thing in the '90's and such...I've been here 16 years myself and seen a bundle of change...
    As for the book, the manuscript is finished and it's going through edits; such a long, strange, and complicated process. I think they do it this way on purpose! Will keep you "posted" about GMD progress...
  • Jennifer Kosharek

    Hello Testtower, how are you? I'm sick. Boo hoo. Sending happy thoughts to you! Jen

  • Jennifer Kosharek

    Thank you the cracking eggs piece is beautiful. I'm still in my pjs and robe... I'm holding back the new year...

    I am so looking for a subway.

    Ah, Haight street...I lived in the lower haight for over 10 years! When I moved into the 'hood it was pretty scruffy, but that's what I loved about it...was in the Walgreen's building, right at the corner of Haight and Fillmore. Moved outta that 'hood about 4 years ago, over in the fog belt of the inner sunset! But you'll notice my PO Box is located in the upper haight...
    As for "Good Mail Day", I can neither confirm nor deny the inclusion of anyone's artwork at this point in time. :-) What I can say is that your items were photo'd, the manuscript is in the editing process, and I'm afraid we might be over our page limit. Eeek! I have you in the "email loop", so to speak, and once I know something, I'll drop you a line...
  • Torma Cauli

    :-) Very good work, I'm glad. Thank you! :-)

    Boy howdy -- do I ever know SRL; one of my good friends (who I've recently found again, thank to the Internets...) is GX Larsen, who you may also know (he lived at "the compound" for quite awhile and did sound for the shows)...
    Glad to hear that you escaped the crazy after-effects of the weather up there. Have been hearing all about it from my folks, who live in Oregon...
