just a quick note to my fellow underground comix collectors...
as some of you may know, my grrl recently completed her PhD studies at LSU & accepted an asst. professor position with the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) teaching technical communication. that's right... we's leavin' Louisiana (in the broad daylight) after 6yrs & i am about to become the REAL oldmilwaukee6er.
toward that end i have been posting a lot less on the boards this past month. i took off work last week to finalize de-cluttering/painting/fixing/staging our townhouse... and as of last week all comix are now in storage (yikes).
but, the townhouse was listed Sat morning, and we already had our first showing last night (and another likely Wed). so between moving, selling our place, & a long-planned 10th anniversary trip to Belize... i will soon drift off on a 1-2 month hiatus.
BTW, i had fun reorganizing and (finally) properly bagging comix i had purchased as far as May 2007! upon re-org, i noted 4 short boxes of UGs (3 alphabetized & 1 of magazines), two CGC boxes of graded stuff, & a misc box or two. it is an amazing process to go through all the items we as collectors accumulate... i found a great 1997 Moscoso poster from the Rock N Roll Museum, a "lost" GOVT MULE poster from 2005, and a few other items i had forgotten.
anyways... hope this finds you ALL in fine health and happiness. IIT/50c... thanks for emailing me your comix inventory, but for obvious reasons i am not buying much of anything right now. O40... be sure to email me when/if your Donahue File Zap #1s hit the market. the best email for me is justin.environmentalscientist@gmail.com. even if the timing is not right, i would be very appreciative of a heads-up. gooddr, jim1968, reverend, SirReal & others (DrBen u still around?)... have a freakin' blast in San Diego this year.
can't wait to settle into MKE by mid-late August, dig through the comix again, & (perhaps) finally be able to set up a nice opium-esque comix den! until then... cheers!
alright,  m (justin)

May all your attempts be fruitful and more satisfying that you'd expect.
I'll do one up in your honor at the con.

Take care, J. We'll see you on the other side.
And stay tuned. You will know about the Donahue copies asap.
I would love to visit you in the great state of Wisconsin and sleep on your sofa with limited cognizance of reality. We can still make that happen.

Moving can be a stressful endeavor, even in the best of times, but it sounds like it's for a very good reason! I wish you guys well and hurry back!

I miss Milwaukee...  Anyway, my wife just got back from vacation in Milwaukee, I stayed home and babysat the dogs. Hopefully next time we'll both go. Next time I'm out that way we'll have to meet up, bro! Let me know if you need any Milwaukee info. I guarantee you'll love living there, lots of cool stuff to do. If you go to comic shows, there is one in Milwaukee at the Burnham Bowl, corner of 60th and Burnham. I think it's like every other month. They usually put an ad in the classifieds of the Journal Sentinel when they are going to have a show. Not usually much in the way of undergrounds, but every once in a while Jim Decker sets up a table. Good luck in the house sale, I know from experience what a tough thing that is nowadays.
