question for Cait
I heard th story
how u buried a plastic baggy
containing yr pubes
in Bukowski's grave
at first it dn't register
now I think
well
cool
in th Old Testament
some patriarch
wld burn a goat
as sacrifice
& it wld say
how pleasin dis wuz
to God's nose
my question is:
do u think th smell
of yr pubes
is pleasing to th nostrils
of Buk?
& do u think th dead
need to get laid
jus like everyone
else?
as long as i buried 'em deep enough, ya yea i did...
...(& do u think th dead need to get laid jus like everyone else?)
well the ones I know say they need too.
• what makes you tick?
thick dick
• WHAT DO YOU LIKE BEST/ LEAST ABOUT BEING AN EDITOR?
bobbin'
• Hey! Yeah I have a question for MS. CAIT COLLINS: What the heck do you DO for a living that allows you to be doing this all the time (or so it seems it's all the time)?! Got a sugar mommy or daddy or something? ;)
nail jello to tree branches and yea uh huh & yep
• "Just exactly how many batteries did you have in your backpack in Canada last year, and how many of them had you used up by the time you got home????"
well besides the gross (super energized)& several battery chargers, heavy duty extension cords, supply of portable electrical outlets via 19" rack mount indoor outdoor power strips (15 amp, 120 volt (the kind with non-surge (ical ports)) 6' cord w/ fail-safe automated shutdown, circuit breakers & switches plus 3 - 3 mile island nuclear power reactors / packed with my own energy and a coupla good players ...-i always carry spares.
• Tell us the story of the most challenging (physical, spiritual, moral, artistic, intellectual) exchange you've ever had as an editor.
no.
• Talk about what being an editor gives you that keeps you going from issue to issue despite the above and other challenges you face.
gettin it all together before the next is due./swallowing nuts.
• What goes bump in the night, lives in the basement and /or haunts your dreams?
bumpin’ uglies in the night cause that’s usually when my day begins.. the monsters i know live in basement crawlspaces ducttaped to dustball balls in rafter corners and i don't dream cept that one time when this most profusely-vein’d gargantuan cock sucked me in -instead. - o gawd it was grand !
• How many pinwheels does it take to start a tornado?
wound or not?
• Jump?
only if it's done to me.
• Is there any subject/object not properly a subject/object of art?
well, I can even consider a protruding peanut in a turd art - as long as it's shellac’d , #’d, classified as a collectable auction’d at ebay at a 1000$ reserve for a 9 day hiatus, then rakin’ in 3x’s that amt’ cause it was considered a collectable. people are into collected works and peanuts and even everyday turds…it’s what after breakfast lunch and/or dinner. so my answer is: no.
• What taboos, if any, remain for the artist in general and/or for you personally?
i don't use cologne.
• What are your top three artistic priorities?
the various manners sexual love is performed; anywhichway instead of everywhichway is an essential prime oftentimes laid back. certain abilities in sex and love can take on another form of higher transcendence which in turn displays overall daily attitudes confidences experimentations and any general altitude (or slump) emitted all around is mosttimes conveyed and spun-off .whatever is produced and projected from the inside out is art in most many if not all aspects...eg you’re not going to be satisfied with a sandwich if you don’t like what’s on the inside and again you can’t eat pork chops every night…heh is that 3? if not let’s boogie down some kama sutra. yea!
• Tell us what makes you melt and why.
i am not frozen. my thermometer says so.
• It's obvious that the idea of community is important to the editors of The-Hold. Talk to us about how this community developed over time and what you see as its future.
well, dave started it, and I, along with all the contributors of the hold made it swell to what it is now and as long as we're not permanently bin-ladenized we'll go on .and on. and on. cheers! to the next 50 issues. so who shall we blame!?
xXxO's!
