NEIL'S HYPERSPACE BIRDCAGE. Dedicated to Neil C (C is not for Cassidy).

TYPEWRITER RESONANCE. An Olivetti barrage straight from the trenches of Interzone. That's how you play ping-pong with a live hand grenade! (thank you mr. Ortuño)

THE DAY IGNATZ MET CTHULHU. A re-elaboration on an old Ping Pong Parrot classic (laughter in the aisles). It used to be the RHUMBOID RHUMBA. Now, it's the not so random encounter between George Herriman and H.P. Lovecraft on a dissection table. Oh me oh my.
