This collage reminds me of David's style and the back of the card reminds me of his humor.

David, if this is yours, please signal by saying "Aye"!

Haha, David, in the meantime I figured out that Sevurn Gallery does not exist. I love the concept :-) - the title of the book, the collaged illustration "My little End of the World" by a "seven year old boy", and the theme for the exhibition "Little Nightmares". It is just hilarious! If you have one left you could send me the same card next time round. I would love that! (I still owe you a reply first, I'll have to think of something good to send you).

xx....sorry for the obfuscation...it just comes naturally to me...No, this is just one of my jokes...but I'm intrigued by the actual book....I didn't know you collected Children's books...

Ahrgh, David, I am rephrasing, is this a real book that I can buy somewhere or is it a concept? I googled it and there seems to be a book with that title but different cover. I collect children's picture books, you know.

Yeah, and if Celine Dion sings over the titles...well, maybe this ol' world should go the way of the passenger pigeon and Leonardo diCaprio's winsome youth.

Let's just hope that there are no sequels!

Oh, it's a comin', LTS. It's a comin'. Though now that we have Arnold and Harrison on the case maybe we turn this whole end o' the world thing around....And if that fails...well, at least, James Cameron will have the footage for his (and ours) last blockbuster.

God, how I would have wanted to hear your CW song at the recent Academy of Country Music Awards program!

Comment by David Stafford on April 10, 2014 at 4:28pm

He sings: (use plaintive country tune)

"It's a wonderful exposition about our decomposition

And it fills your heart with an achin'

that just won't quit.

To see our world a'burnin' through the eyes of children learnin'

That what was given has been taken and turned to shit.... (song part ends here)

Now just what is meant by the phrase, "…one of your jokes"?

Ah David, is this for real or one of your jokes? I mean, how can I get this book? And what is shown in the exhibition?

Aye, Matie ... the children will be distressed with a world gone wrong!
