Menu, found in a Box. I honestly can't remember when I did this illustration, or for whom it was. I don't even remember why I did this. I certainly didn't get paid for doing this. What I do remember is that I wasn't invited, but then I really don't like Krebsfleischsalat.

Opale. The best Jekyll & Hyde ever: Jean Renoir's Le Testament du Docteur Cordelier. If I'm correct, then the only place where you can get this extraordinary film on DVD is Amazon Germany. But hurry, there are only 3 left. And here's a review (in German).

I want Stars. Now. For goodness sake, since I've announced Roper and my bookshop a few days ago, the book has been downloaded about 35 times already. Would somebody mind leaving a rating at lulu.com, please? Any odd star will do; or you can even get going and write a review of the damn book.

NOTE: Once Basil and I are in charge of everything, we'll know exactly who did what and when. Just to let you know.

Basil Says. A picture named basil6.jpgYou don't need to learn 3 chords to form a band. In fact, you don't need to learn anything. Just get yourself a really cheap guitar and a really, really big Vox or Marshall guitar amp (the bigger the better), and Bob's your uncle. And now form a band.

All that Stuff I've been doing. I hate advertising. Concepts for Traxam, a so called topical NSAID (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug). Which means, it's a gel for backpain. I really don't know if it works or not. Anyway, those quick ideas of mine never went any further than being stuck in my sketch book.

Stay tuned, because there's more to come. Next one will be a new edition of my Antarctic Expedition. Printed, and fairly priced. Next step is world domination of course.
