But the important part is that we did it and got pictures! :) And no, no artistic talent. To make the patterns we used Photoshop and made the photos into black/white pure contrast so the only real talent lay in the carving (go Paul!) which was really difficult but do-able. :) Ah well, the process has definitely put me in both the Halloween and Moxy moods!! 3 days 'til Boston!!

I don't have the tape handy for the exact quote, but it's something about "....W.C. Fields, ...in love with 4/5 of The Nields". Every time I hear that, I wonder who is the one member of The Nields Mike is not in love with. - -Alan, who won't be going to the IH shows, but will console himself by seeing The Nields in Towson MD this Friday ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V1 #871 ********************************************
