THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN TAKES SOME MUCH NEEDED EXERCISE

The Gonzo Daily - Friday
 
I woke about an hour before dawn with a horrible crushing sensation on my chest. I couldn't move, and it was pitch black. I could hardly breathe and I felt this weird otherworldly sensation around my face. I truly thought that I was about to meet my maker. However, then I realised that I had gone to sleep remarkably quickly after consuming a bottle of wine whilst watching the Steve Ignorant 'Last Supper' DVD, which really is most awfully good, and when I went to bed I was accompanied by Prudence the 35kg bulldog x boxer and Captain Frunobulax the Magnificent, the rather nutty orange kitten. They were both in a loving mood, and as Corinna had been up late doing stuff and had probably kipped downstairs rather than disturb me, my two animal companions had decided to be extra specially affectionate. Prudence was asleep on top of me (hence the horrible crushing sensation on my chest, and The Captain had gone to sleep on my face! My life does get more and more peculiar.

*  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:

* 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 54 who - together with his orange cat (who is currently on sick leave in Staffordshire) and two very small kittens (one of whom is also orange) 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 cat?
