Do Not Open

this is so Mark. Rider is a star

Yes, it is! I will tell Rider, Alicia. He is chuffed about it. Also-I am glad the link worked. I am a little concerned with the pics that show on the youtube link-I see lots of random pictures. The one thing a person IS supposed to click is the title. Saying "Do Not Open" as it does does not encourage click through, I'm afraid.

This is soooo "Mark" Herman? Or is it sooooo Val Herman?

It is soooo my dear Valentine Mark Herman :-)

And the Oscar goes to Rider! (and her role as Hermes, Greek god of swift-foot :-)

Although, supporting role nomination was won by Elasa! xxx

Love it!

A thought (for all).

It's a good thing that Elasa isn't a cat. 'Curiosity killed th cat', and any cat I've ever known would have got in that box as soon as it could.

And then disappeared.

A thought for Erni. It's not metaphysical, but post-existential.

Erni-in any case, I find the implications incredibly unsettling! I too wonder why and where/when Rider popped out, and where/when Doug and I went. Was Rider too young to be transmitted or. . .? "Instant Bardo Box" instantly makes me think of Warhol's Brillo Pads.

Erni-I don't think one needs to be around this site long to know know the degree of seriousness to take of you!

Comment by Jinny Pearce on June 7, 2013 at 8:51pm

Ha! Don't worry-I take you in all Erniness.

Bardo or Bardot?

Where is Brigitte? (No don't bother answering that as I know whe she is and more or less what she is doing)

Warhol's Brillo Pads or Star Trek's "Beam me up, Scotty?"

Erni, at least the Bardot's are giving some comfort to animals. I, too, saw the Brillo boxes once (in Vienna), and, I must admit, wasn't particularly impressed, buty then it was some 40 years after Andy hade been maling these sort of artistic statements, and, thanks to Andy, things had considerably moved on.

You will know, of course, of Andy's Campbell soup can works. The Man himself said that he never received any free cans of soup from Campbell. Promotion & marketing must have been very different in those days!

The end. val
