In reply...
Tempus fugit. My abiding apologies. I provide this excuse only to let my loyal readers know that I have been involved with some surprisingly enjoyable litigation and that this is the cause of my radio silence. It is of course no excuse to allow controversy and distemper to remain in the comments section of this blog, and for that I abase myself, prostrate.
Someone wants to know if I am from South Africa. I was born in a small town in the Karoo, in the Eastern Cape. I am South African. I am not in South Africa at the moment however. I am at work. I am qualified to practise law in three countries, none of which is South Africa. Some of my work involves intellectual property and copyright. It is for that reason that I would prefer people not to steal the artwork of the inestimable Kurt, but that if they do, that the appropriate props are made. For his benefit, you see. Additionally I have observed that the look and feel of these little pictures has become manifest across the blogosphere. On Kurt's behalf I take that as complementary and testamentary to Kurt's abundant skill and influence.
Kurt's work is iconic.
Please pardon that atrocious pun. I mentioned above my loyal readers. In fact, there are some several hundred of you who load up this page each day, probably with the hope that there will be some catharsis available. I am astounded constantly. Since I have been away from The Habitat for the last little while, there is nothing major to report. Oh, except for the fact that the Landlord is selling the place. This is certainly not going to prevent the necessity of my living with one of the stupider examples of humanity.
Self reference is not part of the art (it's all too post modern), and so I return you to your normal programming...

Did Kurt make the photos? He's a genius! I'm afraid I have been guilty of appropriating one or two of them for my blog, but in my defence I was only doing so because in your supposedly final post you said we could!!! Do you want them removed?
Yours apologetically

Kurt Halsey?
Fantastic, thanks for replying. Keep up with the feedback, we need it too, ok!
I'm also from South Africa and hate my flatmate. Maybe we have more of an intolerance to other pople. Or they're just idiots. Who knows.
Heres an idea - live on your own - simple
hey anonymous, don't be a fool.
good flat-mates save you mega-bucks.
don't be cynical, you obviously dfon't understand the point of this website.... ya bitch.
Hmmm, bit weird you said you let your flat mate move in for free legal advice and yet you are licsensed to practise law in three differant countries. What are your fees too expensive for yourself?
