Anne Skok	Roosters & Hens		Acrylics on Masonite	4'x4'
"..Americana executed with wry humor..."

The style, in my mind, can only be described as Picasso meets Grandma Moses.
The colors are bright, and each painting is bordered in colorful stripes,
with a big, contrasting "SKOK" signature scrawled across the bottom.

I picked up a price list.  They are all $900 each.  For $900 you can
have an acrylic-on-masonite 4'x4' rooster painting entitled:

"Hot Cock"

ps this is ALL TRUE.  I couldn't make it up if I TRIED.

I must confess I was apprehensive on my way to Casa Canetoad. How would
these young whippersnappers react when they discovered my
Secret Identity (tm) as mild-mannered Grandma Tomacina Boutell of
57 Waverly Street, Apple Pie, USA? Would they want to look at pictures
of my grandchildren? Would they dance to strange music and behave
in a morally reprehensible fashion? Would they vote for Democrats?
(Now, now, I *know* Bill's a nice young man, but Babs is the
patron saint of grandmothers everywhere.)

I found the address and entered, slowly maneuvering my meatballs-and-
spaghetti-fed bulk down the hallway. To my great relief, I was met at
the door by a lovely old member of the Chelsea Rotary Club
Grandmothers Auxiliary who introduced herself as "Larne."

In short order I was introduced to Grandmas Annie, X, Grendel
and Colette (sp), who offered me a seat and a cup of camomile, then
proceeded to open their wallets and let drop with a long, long string
of plastic portrait-folders.

Dozens of other grandmothers arrived as the evening went on, but I
could never keep their names straight.

Later Grandma Grendel and I had a good-natured tussle over what
to put on the ol' gramophone next. She wanted to keep listening
to the "Mild Chili Nephews", but Colette and I were firmly in
favor of "They Might Be Grandmas."

She had hair like Jeannie Shrimpton back in 1969, she had legs that
never ended, I was halfway paralyzed.

I shut off the stereo and looked at her. A short stubbly mustachioed
grandmother with a piece at her side and a set of crooked black teeth
to take care of anything that got past it. 

"What brings you to me, ma'am?"

"A cab." She took a seat, took out her gun and began wiping it with
my Kleenex. "My daughter's missing. I need your help."

I showed her the surgical scars.

In the meadow, an important meeting has taken place; Hillary Clinton
has escaped the watchful eye of her husband to discuss important plans
for her new CD with Toni Tenneel (sp?) and Jose Feleciano. As they
discuss the track where Hillary sings Wagner's Valkyrie (with orchestral
accompaniment arranged for kazoo by Jose), they discover that they are

in the pygmy pines, and have heard everything they were saying. Hillary

I tried to convince her that we do indeed have a television heritage and
who knows what value these shows will have hundreds of years from now.
They could be considered a new art form.  They would be a glimpse into the

We'd like to alert you to our new product, which will probably be
the technological breakthrough for YOUSNET (i think thats what those
big guys always call this newsboard). Here at Bob Bampfre & Sons, we 
think about you. A lot. I think it was last Tuesday, we just sat 
around thinking about you all day. But, about the product - we
present to you the invisible post - a post which you see when you
write it, but nobody else can ever see it. Oh it'll be there on the
machine all right, it'll just be invisible.

This would allow a person to post his message to a group, with the
added advantage that no one could see it. Just think of the implications
of this!

- No more flames with sarcasm that hurts so much

- No resistance to your ideas

And of course, there would be less clutter, because everyone would
take advantage of this, and before you could say Jack Robinson,
people would post exclusively using invisible posts.

Just look what people have been saying about our sample environment:

"Ever since I started using invisible posts, my life has changed so
much for the better! I used to be beaten down day after day when I
read newsgrazer, with so many people making fun at me and jeering.
I had nearly given up posting completely, until at wit's end, I
found the invisible post. Now I'm happily posting 10, 11 times a day!"
                    - Frugus Uloopus

"A year, my boss was yelling at me five hours out of each eight hour
day. I know because I timed it once. He got mad because I was always
posting letters during the morning shift and then reading replies 
during the afternoon shift. He started getting so bad that I had to
start locking him up in the closet when I came in to work. But that
all changed when I told my good friend Al about it. He suggested
invisible posts, which he had used for years. And now, I still post
in the morning, but my afternoons are free to work! I even started
letting the boss out of the closet after my coffee break, but that
may change soon, because he's all blue and smells bad. At least he
doesn't yell at me anymore. Come to think of it, he doesn't say much
at all now-a-days."
