THE GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN EXTRAPOLATES

The Gonzo Daily - Thursday
 
My Robot Army of the Undead and I are working ourselves ever closer to World Domination. A clutch of eggs from the Columbian giant ramshorn snail and Corinna (bless her) is sorting out accommodation for them. She went out and bought me a palatial breeding cage for them yesterday; they will need it because they will only be match-head sized when they hatch. Sheri left with Graham this morning on the first stage of her long journey back to Yorkshire. Graham, however, is going to the laboratory supplies place in Stoke Canon following which he will be fitting new doors to my house in Exeter. In the meantime, Andrea will be here imminently and lots of exciting things involving this weekend's issue of Gonzo Weekly, Karl Shuker's new book, and Volume Two of George Eberhart's Mysterious Creatures, and Ian Abrahams' biography of The Waterboys will transpire. Oh what an exciting life we have...

There are also features on The Psychedelic Warlords, Keith Levene, Acid Mothers Temple, Galahad and more news, reviews, views, interviews and Matschie's tree-kangaroos (OK, no arboreal macropods from New Guinea, but I got carried away with things that rhymed with OOOOS) than you can shake a stick at. And the best part is IT's ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!

*  Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures (and several others) is an old hippy of 54 who - together with an orange kitten named after a song by Frank Zappa 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 kitten?
