Neil Gordon

Neil, how thoughtful of you to read between the lines and realize that "serious weightlifter/powerlifter" is one of my top three goals. Socks always do it, yes! Truth be told, SockDreams has become a top company thanks to my addiction to socks. You wouldn't believe ...

Glad it all arrived DharmaDaDa Neil. Oh yes - into Burroughs in a major way.

Hi Neil, Thessaloniki is located on the northwest corner of the Aegean Sea, it is known as the Thermaikos Bay. And my seaside shack is about 35-40 klm south along that bay "here" :-)

Thanks Neil, trashpo is great fun and good for us all.

Neil, I'm so glad you like it--it's one of 9 brain operations that went out this week. I'm a fan of your chaos, you know. You sent me by far the most chaotic and crumpled envelope I've ever received, a few months ago, and it's still one of my favorite mail arts. Soon I will send you some OOB rust, as promised.

Happy to see that Blue Trashpo has arrived and the "pseudo envelope" (does look like spanakopita doesn't it?) . I didn't know that you collect "tea" things! Well, i am a tea drinker (no coffee and very little wine)...so, I shall be saving up the tea bag tags, wrappers, farmers' market baggies, etc..just for you! Fun!

Hi Neil! Thank you for the rubbing and tea things! Fun and colorful envelope, too!

It is blogged here:

GOTIJ! BlogJam: Monday Mail Art in Greece!

Maybe some MinXus of yours on my refrigerator exhibit , too....

Elegant and thought provoking?? Gee thanks Neil, too kind my new friend ;-))))!

hi Neil! glad you liked the postcard -- they are hand carved rubber stamp... same process as wood cut but easier :)

Hi Neil, glad you got the "tea" things. Yes, "Fino" is a Greek tea packaging company, but Lipton's will probably buy them out soon :-(

ΤΙΛΙΟ - Tilio is linden tea, my favorite! I'll try to find a few others for you, too.

Thank you so much, Neil! the flower envelope is fantastic and there was an imprint of the flower place with "CT"...so who else do I know in Connecticut? Had to be you. Great rubbing and 'love those Greek stamps! Here is the blog:

Blue Blog Jam , too...Mail Art from Giuliana, Nadine, M. Keen, and ...

Hi Neil...thank you for the "Hello Relief" Trashpo. Glad you enjoyed the ATC and recycled seed packet....Here's to the next round *!* hugs....

Hey Neil, no, it didn't arrive. Holy cow and past, current, + future calves! Just one piece has arrived from you: the trashiest taped envelope I ever saw. A glorious mess! It's one of my very favorite mail arts.

Thank you for the TINIEST mail art my mailbox (and probably my mailman) has ever seen! http://iuoma-network.ning.com/photo/tiny-mail-art-from-neil-gordon

Hiya, Neil, yes for sure--artistic and autistic very close. I'll be very happy for anything you decide to send! It's sad to miss out on the bell's seasoning--that package is lively and beautiful! Maybe it will still show up one day ...

:-) ..glad you liked my bag of chips! 

cheers

Oh, yes, Neil, the Greek blue Aegean Sea is 22 minutes from Glinou 20, or a few steps away from my seaside shack :-)

BLUE in Greek is : μπλε

pronounced: BLE ! And it is such a happy blue sea...and sky today!

Hi Neil...love all the trashpo goodies you have sent; especially the see thru piece of plastic...my mind is whirling *!*  Hugs to you...

Here is what I've added to the AP originated from Diane, collaboration by Neil and Amy (so far)...this is only the back...did not want to spoil the surprise for the next victim (haha) !

Neil, thanks for all your help at the ranch. Minxus mail on the way to you:

The barkpo has arrived! I LOVE it. It has you written all over it. It's good you wrote your note on the Bell's seasoning box's recipe panel. This will come in very handy if I ever decide to learn to cook. Thank You, Neil! More blogging next week, and this will lead the pack. And what a sterling rusty flat bottle cap. Woo-hoo! 

Is it? More power to it, then, eh? Your barkpo piece has a loose and completely unself-conscious artistry to it that epitomizes you. I will post it in trashpo as well as blog it. And it's an out-in-the-open keeper here; I will need to see it every day.

Thanks for your trashpo, Neil. It arrived while I was in Chicago. Nice to come home to Mail Art.

Hi Neil, I'm glad that you enjoyed the Scrap Add and Pass! The photo is indeed one of mine --- it's my main hobby these days and a lot of my mail art features at least one of my pictures.

I'll keep an eye on my mailbox!

It is my pleasure Neil... check out my target audience event.... and look forward to seeing you in the mail!

have a station around , this cheese land ( try Mont d'OR ?)

http://iuoma-network.ning.com/profiles/blogs/eventscore-saved-as-dr...

Indeed! ^_^

Bonjour!

A question, if I may: is that curly yellow thing that you use as your image, one of those bits of plastic that you put in the centre of a (perhaps earlier juke box) 45 vinyl record to make it fit on a regular turntable?

(Vinyl-only) Val

masterchief secret : poached aubergine with cheese ( strong one : mont d'or , cancoillote ...)

Bonjour!

My friend Doug-the-guy-with-three-juke-boxes says that these lil plastic things arfe called 'Dinkers'.

Perhaps they haver another name in the US.

Yeah, long live vinyl!

Val (who has about 800 45's, 1000 33's, 700 cassettes, and NO digital music in any form at all. Hence Digital Only Val)

You sent me lovable mail art again, Neil--rusty bottlecaps! and more neat stuff--thank you, trashpo hero! Blogs and all are behind, but that will happen and you're high on my m.a. list to go out. Thank you Neil, and danke, merci, gracias, and all the ways of saying it ... Love your spirit.

Hi Neil! Thanks for the card! Have a nice week!
