Comment
On a day like today, I can afford to be generous.
It's a good morning when we re-elect our prez and DVS makes a supportive comment about my work (Bhubesi boekie). Thanks DeVillo. :-)
Rumors! Rumors! There have been NO documented cases of contaigion spread through mail-art since the G-Man "Eat Me" Cult Kits in 2010.
The proof is in the pudding as they say. Yup, sparks flew from the baptismal font when I tested my tiny piece of the Elgin Shroud. I stand corrected DK.
This looks like one of the rare shrouds made from Raw Malaysian Silk-or is it lace? The original shroud was a rare type of American Polyester Blend. I think the imitations were much higher quality, although they lacked the same healing powers. You know it's real if holy water sizzles when dripped on it.
DVS, this photo was taken in the 1950's in Malaysia. Could have sworn in tiny type it read "Original Elgin Shroud'. Perhaps there are two originals.
Allow me to add, the 'alleged' original shroud didn't heal the DKult pox that appeared on my forehead from the DK tattoo.
Really great work from Alicia, and it's great to see her back (and front even better).
However, it's mail-art like this that adds to all the total confusion & misunderstanding surrounding the Elgin Shroud. The Elgin Shroud is real & cut up in pieces in several locations. That's not the authentic Elgin Shroud in that picture. The documented miracles took place in Mexico, and that does not look like any of the pics from that location I've seen.
Feel free to mock the Elgin Shroud, but there are people who believe in its powers.
HAHHHH!
