everything's a big rip-off

before i get to jibber-jabbering, i'd like to introduce a new feature on 'warmth and green paper': i'm going to be posting random shit images from wikipedia, based on my mood and whim on each particular day. without further a do, here is the first one:




awhile back i cobbled together a mini-comic, 'the new adventures of mary and joseph', using stock photos altered in ms paint. man i felt good about it, i thought 'what a great funny idea for a comic book title'. i printed maybe 4--if anyone has a copy around, it is truly very rare, and actually i bet that they are all destroyed by now.

ive been trying to come up with other ideas lately, for a mini that i would draw myself, and i can't come up with any good ideas. periodically i would think 'man, i should try to draw that mary and joseph thing'. then i would realize that i have no skill at drawing beards.

well now i have even more reason not to do 'the new adventures of mary and joseph': turns out that another cartoonist has been drawing 'the new adventures of jesus' as an underground comic book since some time in the mid-sixties. so the one funny idea i had was an inadvertent hack-job. it makes me feel a little more insignificant that the real-deal-'new adventures' is DECADES old now.

well fuck.

almost last and definitely least, here's a public message to the shell of the daughter of rock and roll:

if the candle that burns twice as bright burns twice as fast, then i hope you burn three hundred times as bright. i hope they see you from fucking space.

and to wrap it all up today, i feel like quoting wonder showzen.

"what a delicious beating"
