:F_P:#################################Wed Sep 7 2005#################

Back on October 22nd of 2002 I started a series of 101 butterflies.
That work was put on hold after becoming homelessness and other things 
kept getting in the way.  For example I had finished about 30 that
never saw the light of day because my laptop had been stolen and as I
was homeless I had no way of uploading them or even makeing a backup 
before going on the road. 

Well Now I have time to start to start putting a dent in this this
series again.  This is number 37.  Number 36 came out 2 years and one
month ago.

Warning: following may cause people with an IQ over 100 to be sick
and, worse, those with an IQ under to be filled with joy.

Is there a lesson in all of this?  Even after having ones whole world
taken away, having moved 3000 miles from where it started and having
lost everything that made starting the project possible it now takes
flight again.  Even though more than two years have passed I was able
to reach for my dreams and let these dreams take flight so that their
colors could shin.  The victims of Katrina too will have to recover
and restart so they can let their once partially completed dreams
start to fly.  As the years go by each of the goals, ideas, hopes and
dreams of those people left with nothing in the wake of Katrina may 
too start to show like a color storm of butterflies in the wake of a
life flooded with despair.

Good to have you back, FP.

Who are you to utter such profoundness? Thankyou for your butterfly, 
ascii and not.

I am just a dyslexic geek who knows how to write sappy stuff when I get
the urge, which isn't too often.

I'd thought I'd seen all the episodes.  I don't recall that one.

Great series.  

My favorite mini-scene is the intro where the cat is licking himself.  
Hilarious.  The artists must be a real hoot to hang out with.
