Hey, thanks. You're right. The story is the thing for me. It's like the story becomes my voice. I think that's why I am a detail maniac. I obsess over the plot connections, the setting, the motivation....

Thank you. I think of them as "intelligent" as well, although this is not a word that one hears much in critiques. I think it must have something to do with my love of the literal. A literal story seems to pop its head up no matter what I do. I think I am simply wired for storytelling and the storytellers who show up in my collages tell their stories with vigor, and intelligently, if you're following that!
Thanks again. I really appreciate your comment.

Yes the world needs more story tellers. I think there are not many true dreamers left. many things are being re-hashed. the world is all about instant gratification. no one can hold still anymore. visual stories are almost the only safe refuge.

I was amazed to find, with the death of so many magazines over the last few years, and the fight to keep even some newspapers in print, that the only magazine to have actually increased its circulation was...People magazine. I think that is a proof of what you say, which I believe as well, by the way.

Yes, I was hoping that mondo2000 would stay but they are so eccentric that their audience is a small niche. Wired went online, and other magazines stay like photoshop users and step by step graphics are still pumping in the physical worls of print and paper...

That wise expression of defeat is right up there in my list of scary things with birth and death. The people that know things climb higher and fall harder than those who know nothing.

When the experiences don't line up with the development of the brain...it's just an awful situation to contemplate. Living is sometimes as scary to me as birth, as death, at least recently.

In hindsight, and without provocation, I have found that explanations are beginning to suggest themselves. I didn't ask for it to happen, but nonetheless they seem to be coming around. It is an interesting process. Perhaps it is due to time spent on earth.

Thanks for the kind words, as always. They make me feel good, repeatedly.

Things have been slowed down considerably with the ash cloud, I think. Even if the ash cloud isn't in your area, air mail is bollixed, from what I have been told. I had the same issue with outgoing overseas mail.

The Little Prince will find me, I am quite confident of that.
