Some guy suggested that the newsletter drawing for "Midnight Cowboy" was really for "Il Sorpasso". I have no idea how this became an inside joke among us, no one really made a fuss about his suggestion.

Ah, I remember that now. In fact, I think I even seconded his suggestion! :P

I'm pretty sure that Domino gave him his fair share of ribbing for "Ill-Sore Opossum". In the spirit of that guess, I'll drop the supposition that the cover tease above is for a self-financed documentary made by Ancient Aliens obsessed Jon Mulvaney about Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods.

Quick, somebody go post another revised Cries & Whispers cover in the cover art thread so we can all go over the edge.

Announcements have now certainly become the last job of the intern closing the office for the day...

Could the fingerprint point to a Hiroshi Teshigahara Blu-ray set? Probably not, but guessing is a helluva lot more amusing than waiting for this announcement.

It doesn't look like a fingerprint. More like a palm print.
