The real reason I want to meet Jim Woodring

Without getting too in depth, Woodring’s work inspires me. Also, I find it inspiring that he makes a living making art comix. I want to be a full time artist and animator auteur and if I talked to him I would ask for advice. Okay, my real dream would be for him to be some sort of mentor to me.
I saw him at the hardware store today, but I was busy and too star-struck to holler at him. Maybe next time. Hope he is nice.

A story about Sir Richard Bishop

He opened for Os Mutantes when I saw them at the Moore Theater in Seattle. I had never heard his solo guitar before and had no idea what I was in for. The audience was hushed and listening very respectfully when I entered the theatre. I took my seat and soon I was under the spell of his powerful intricate strumming. At several points I found myself gyrating my head as a natural/uncontrollable expressing of the force of the notes. I was interested to dicover later that he is a student of magick.
But, no, I have never met him.

Why Bigfoot should want to meet me

First off, Bigfoot, of course, is not an individual, but the North American Ape or NAPE. They are possibly descended from Giganthropithecus blacki, thought to have died out 100,000 years ago.
Anyways, if I encountered a “bigfoot” or “sasquatch” I would feel very fortunate and blessed and would have a very special memory for the rest of my life.
If the Satch could sense I respected her and didn’t wish her harm or capture maybe I could be the first to befriend one and possibly even learn her harsh, gutteral language.
What could the gaurdian of the woods tell us about the state of the environment?

Why I admire Morihei Ueshiba

He embodied the true spirit of budo.

Why I admire Leonard Peltier

Leonard stood up to the bullying henchmen of our federal government, defended himself and will never squeel on the one who fired the shot.
From all I have heard, he remains a peaceful, spiritual man in the worst of circumstances.
