8. It was the "An exercise" post that got you started, isn't it?
Thinking, oh look JVS is obsessed with small markings on pieces of paper. Well I won't stop thinking about symbols on the pages! And there's nothing that you or mom can do about it!

10. However, should those marks begin to take artistic shape
I want a hand out when you're rich and famous. Even if it's just a place to throw up when I'm wasted. If you give Serrault a run for his money I expect to be puking in a gold toilet.


Ciao man- time for bed

18. Not a "Wierd" post!
