THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN IS FRAGILE

My hooky copy of Adobe Acrobat which I bought off eBay years ago has finally given up the ghost, so three weeks ago I bit the bullet and bought a legitimate copy of Acrobat 9 from an eBay vendor in Hampshire. Three weeks later it hadn't arrived, so I wrote to the vendor who ignored me, and so I opened a grievance thingy with eBay themselves. I then received a plaintive email from the vendor, hoping that I wouldn't "give him negative feedback". What do you think?

My complaint was upheld, and I should now be getting a full refund. I am still not sure what to do about his feedback...

The Gonzo Track of the Day is from Mr Averell. This is actually a world exclusive - René van Commenée sent it to me the other day, and I don't think anyone else has seen it.

*  The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If you have any news or want to write for us, please contact me at  jon@eclipse.co.uk. If you are an artist and want to showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at gonzo@cfz.org.uk. Please copy, paste and spread the word about this magazine as widely as possible. We need people to read us in order to grow, and as soon as it is viable we shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the fun, spread the word, and maybe if we all chant loud enough we CAN stop it raining. See you tomorrow...

*  The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine (mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The same team also do a weekly newsletter called - imaginatively - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about it at this link: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html

* We should probably mention here, that some of our posts are links to things we have found on the internet that we think are of interest. We are not responsible for spelling or factual errors in other people's websites. Honest guv!

*  Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures (and several others) is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) and a not very small orange kitten (who isn't) puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon which he shares with various fish, and sometimes a small Indian frog. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, his elderly mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cats?
