YES! I've gotten my copies of the book!
It
looks spectacular --- and believe me I'm pretty picky
about prints and such. I've been in a kind of malaise
since the deal was finalized... what now to do with
myself? Checking off an item on the Bucket List isn't as
joyous an occasion as one might imagine. I've still got
to do the dwarf, the double fuck, and host a radio show,
but those things have drifted into the "totally
unlikely" vicinity. But the book is here, it exists, and
I'd like to think that it'll sell well (that's up to you
all!!!).
I
know that I should be more deliriously happy (eh,
Happiness is over-rated in our society) but I'll tell
you what does put a big stupid grin on my face, the
fact that boxes saying "Just So Horny" on them are being
shipped all over the world!
That is some incredibly funny shit to me! Just knowing
that some mailman or USP worker or customs agent has to
read the phrase "Just So Horny" means that on some level
I've accidentally affected an entire new audience whose
curiosity might be tweaked and piqued by the notion that
something in the box is "Just So Horny." Hahaha!! I
know, I have problems with priorities and whatnot....but
for some reason this simple carton lettering has
actually thrilled me more than getting the books.
The book was a decades-long product of work
(alright...drawing folks who are considering/engaging in
sex is more fun than work) as well as the input from
webguy/buddy Daniel, the Bruno
Gmünder folks,
the collectors who submitted hi-rez scans and a group of
anonymous Koreans) and this packaging is just a free
gift, no effort, not even a thought on my part. So, for
the fun free shit that sometimes makes us
smile....uh....lost my train there. Sorry.
Now GO BUY THE FUCKING BOOK!!! Hahaha!!!
