'...Ehud said, "I have a message from God to thee." And he arose from his seat. And Ehud put forth his lefft hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly: And the haft also entered after the blade: and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out.' --Judges 3:20-22
'Can't you understand, oh my little girl.' --Depeche ModeI cleaned out my zine collection today and and mailing quite a few to a friend when I happened upon a great zine that I'm keeping:

More soon....
