Bonjour mon ami (and Burt Reynolds) -- thanks for the card, the NC sticker ("Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina in the morning" -- was that a 'Wake up and make love to me' song?), and the Hush puppies recipe. Now I know why they are called 'Hush puppies' -- but it should really be 'Hush - puppies'. But I am unable to sleep because I don't know why the Hush Puppy shoes are so named. Katerina has been staying with me for a couple of days. Last night I cooked us my very special lapin au vin (rouge): I think I'll stick to that rather than the puppies. But I do have a very troublesome cat, called Trouble, so I might try the recipe out on him, thus, 'Hush - moggy'. If you've lost the thread of this (assuming there ever was one), worry not as I'll be mailing you something back soon. Thanks again & regards, Val
And no, I didn't get a China zine. I'm always 24 hours late and things that are offered are always snapped up while I'm sleeping! I think that happened with the music thingy too. Hope you liked my boekiezine.
Bonjour! Glad you liked the sticker. I've never heard of either Thurston nor Lee, but then again I only listen to old vinyl records. Duane Eddy is currently twanging on in the background; Bon weekend, Val
So glad it made you laugh, it's been sitting around here for several weeks making all the teenagers giggle as I tried to decide who might appreciate such a card. I obviously picked the right guy :)
We'll see how it goes, but I'm looking forward to trying to do it. I imagine not all books will capture my imagination, but there's probably still something to be said about them.
HEY! The big thing has arrived!! It's a lovely thing, Jon! I'm so impressed and inspired that I've been trying tape tonight on all kinds of papers...I'll send you my attempts if you like?
Thanks for the note Jon! Of course I would love a Jon F. booklet, but please don't feel obligated... It sounds like you're enjoying making them though, always a good thing! ^_^ btw, what do you teach?
I'm looking forward to some new work from you, Jon. I'm trying to regularize a mailing list for people in the Trashpo group, so you'll probably get more DKULTNY stuff.
Jon, thank you for a unique collage. The colored tape adds a unique dimension to the composition. It has been added to my personal blog as well as the photo stream on My Page.
Thank you for friending me--I look forward to your next missive in my mail box. Yes, there are quite a few of us from the San Francisco area (I counted 28 from there, plus there are more of us in the vicinity as well). We have 2 famous IUOMA mail artists, John Held Jr and Jenny Hinchcliff. Jenny has authored a book. Go to her IUOMA page and check her links. John has a mail art exhibition going up in San Francisco on Feb. 2nd! I plan to see it!
Thanks for putting my mail art piece on your blog. I like your idea of keeping a record of your activities. I also enjoyed reading about your love affair with tape.
Hello Jon, hope it is still your birthday on the other side of the globe. Wishing the very best, also for the next 364-not-birthday-days... And the rest, of course
Jon, got your lurvely tape transfer card yesterday, super!! Huuh? Did I miss your birthday?? Maybe I didn't, and it's still your b'day on that side of the world??
Cheers from Australia, hope some Drunkpo comes out it!
Hey Jon--Apparently I missed your birthday -- hope it was fun and included cake and cocktails! Will send you something very soon. Loved the stash of goodies you sent me a while back.
