LET PAUL DiFILLIPO INTO YOUR SKULL
This is a stack of Payseur and Schmidt's new release COSMOCOPIA, about which the venerable BOING BOING has this to say.

About Me
- Name: Jim Woodring
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I was born in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California and enjoyed an exciting childhood full of poetry and paroniria among the snakes, rats and tarantulas of that enchanted realm. I eventually grew into an inquisitive bearlike man who has had three exciting careers; garbage collector, merry-go-round-operator and cartoonist. Some of my work is collected in THE BOOK OF JIM, THE FRANK BOOK and SEEING THINGS (all published by Fantagraphics) and in various toys, fabrics, prints and urban legends. Thank you for your interest.

Every book should come with a puzzle!
By the way, the Boing Boing link has an extra "http://" in it so your link doesn't work.

A-whupsy... problem rectified. Thank you, Richard.
I can't wait to get my hands on a copy..
-Jim- I watched a film last night that made me think of you. Specifically your interest in "hinduism" (- what's the correct term?). It's called Hippie Masala- It's a documentary about Westerners who went to India in the 60s'/70s and never came back. It's worthit alone for some amazing, alien landscape shots of rural India.
That sounds choice; I'll look out for it.
"Hindu" is a misnomer, but it's in such widespread use that so what? "Vedanta" is the name I prefer, even though it's just one form of the Sanatana Dharma.
Hello! I mailed the following message to the persons, who deal with your prints. The address begins with brad and than comes the @. And then starts the pressure and the printing. And now the mail: "Forget the case - as I will do. I have paid for your cheat and I sneeze at you. For me in Germany it is impossible to get my right. But: You have to live from now on as a cheater. You will always know, that you are a person, who is dishonest. And it is for me so sad, that Jim Woodring is trusting you. By the way..." - This was the mail; by the way, dear Jim Woodring: I'm a so great great fan of you... with many prints of you on the walls... and if I ever would look for someone, who could illustrate my novels, it would be you (sorry for my bad englich)... C.E.
Please eareasure the message above after reading. It was only an information for you... with all my best wishes from Germany... C.E.
I received my copy of Cosmocopia in Australia and spent the next few days doing the jigsaw. When it was finally done, I had an extra "duplicate" piece of the jigsaw. Either some other purchaser will be missing this piece or I have a key to the Unifactor. Hmm!
