    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

    Thanks for the card Jon, great as always! I blogged it here http://www.purplepepperdesign.co.uk/mail-art-monday-anti-souvenir-p...

  • vizma bruns

    Cool, thanks for the link!

    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.

  • Susan McAllister

    Thanks for the great postcard, Jon
  • Erica Durante

    Thank you for the excellent postcard! I got it yesterday, before the hurricane got really bad. I'll reply soon!

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    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

  • De Villo Sloan

    Pleasell us that you do, because we're all curious. Val et Al

  • De Villo Sloan

    Thanks Jon. I thought it looked pretty interesting. Your blog is already linked to M-L through Dark wall. Take care

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Hey Jon...

    ..has De Velo Sloane ever, ever sent ou a piece of original Mail Art?

    If so, you're very lucky.

    I HOPE THAT HE WILL SEND ME SOMETHING ONE DAY.

    (Perhaps you could mention this to him)

    Bon weekend, Val

    You've been blogged!!! I've been enjoying the exchange with you very much, hope you're good :)

  • Ana Karina

    you're welcome!

  • Arac

    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 :)

  • Ursula Rodgers

    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.

  • vizma bruns

    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 very much for your super mailing!

  • Claire (aka Cleo)

    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?

  • De Villo Sloan

    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.

    Have a great holiday if I don't "see" you, DVS

    Hi Jon! I got your mailart book today! Superb! Thanks a million! Have a great day.

    Hi Jon. I'm having a similar problem with some of my mailart sent to Canada and the US not getting through.

  • Carmela Rizzuto

    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.

  • Carmela Rizzuto

    Jon

    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!

  • Michael Orr

    I thought we were already connected on here. This seems to be a common occurrence with me on this website. Thanks for adding!

  • Carmela Rizzuto

    John,

    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. 

    Keep creating!

  • Carina

    Jon, thanks for kind comment and for blogging!

    You have done great job with the colored tape, very cool things, I'm jealous ;)  Have a great Thursday over there.
