A GOOD NEWS STORY
An unsolicited testimonial!
"I recently traveled overseas. A bomb was detonated at the airport shortly before I arrived, there were violent clashes between Maoist cliques and I met many trekkers who had been held up, sometimes at gun point. I wasn't affected by any of that and I can't say with absolute certainty that it wasn't, in some measure, because of the 'Good Luck Personal Modern Traveling Talisman TM' I'd been given before I left. If it wasn't due to other, unrelated factors, thank you 'Good Luck Personal Modern Traveling Talisman TM' ! "

A very lucky 'lucky cat'
This ancient lucky cat has landed in my possession.
Sources suggest that it has spent a good deal of time submerged
in salt water, most likely the sea.
An accurate dating of its age is not possible.
The miracle is that it still functions, waving its arm to
passers by who drive and walk by our shop window.
This is indeed one lucky cat.
I'm hoping that it's going to rub off.
On Saturdays I'll carefully pack it up and take it down
with me to the Rose St. Market.
INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE SYSTEM
I've started up my ongoing collaborative international sign Esperanto system again.
Christmas was so busy i put it aside for a little while.
The system so far:
German, Serbian, Greek, Thai, Malay, Spanish, Korean, Swedish,
English, Chinese, Japanese, Norwegian (and French not included in picture)
My theory is that there are the ten beginning words that any desperate traveller needs.
We can argue about the ten I've chosen:
I think it doesn't really matter too much.
My mission is to teach everyone in the world these ten meanings and the associated numbers.
When this is achieved we should be able to communicate with anyone on the planet just signing these 10 numbers.
Imagine rolling up at passport control and holding up one for hello, an eight when you find out your passport's expired and 10 for good-bye as you leave the airport to go home.
Four two as they say/sign!
All of the templates have been created by native speakers that I've encountered at the Rose St. Market in Fitzroy. The deal is they translate for me and add themselves to the archive and I give them one of my hand made badges and a place in the international language hall of fame.
Check out the beautiful script from Thailand.
Big thanks to all who have participated so far.
If you're in the vicinity of Fitzroy on a Saturday and can contribute,
I'd be happy to see you.

- 9. how much?

THE YEAR OF THE GOAT
I've been working my way around to making larger pieces and finally something has arrived that I'm content with.
It's too big to be a postcard, maybe it's a placard?
It measures 41cmx41cm and it features a red goat.
I'm calling 2009 my year of the goat.
I'm not really sure what that means but please take from it what you will.
OMG
OMG it's hard to crank this writing up again when it's been a while.
Hard to shut the critical mind up,
and the big pressure of how to start this new year?
What about this?
A happy healthy loving and peaceful new year to all.

Important Test Case
I've been casually telling people that of course you can post these wooden postcards.
Just stick on a stamp and address and Australia Post will love it.
They sit in the sorting room passing it round enjoying it enormously until with a jolt they realize there's work to be done. The precious little wooden postcards goes to the top of the bag, and the postie cycles it away.
But what i haven't actually ever done is try it!
So here it goes, into the real mail tonight.
There's this show for the Melbourne fringe festival,
"Craft Exchange Salon"
by the Safari Team,
which seems pretty interesting.
I stick this in the mail and something will come back,
and then the whole thing is presented as an installation on October 2
It's going to be interesting to see how the posties behave.
I'll keep you posted.
Huh!
Anyone know how to embed a wireless web cam into a postcard?

The piggies bank is back
Finally got this little beastie together.
It's been a long journey of putting it right,
but now it's right.
right on.
The two little fellows on top were the little stroke it needed
to complete.
A complete trough now.
Installed a new look faux combo lock that will of course deter any
thieves.

And he's going off to market on Saturday!!
st lukes art show
St. Lukes is an art supplies shop in Smith st. Collingwood.
They've got this huge group show they do each year.
They sell you an artist's palette and you return it treated,
and then they show and endeavor to sell.
It's fun and accessible.
I like it.
