Henchley Puppet Songs of Confusion and Glory

Greetings Dear Friends of the Sock Puppet Arts,
Much action is about, and in the midst of the fray, my dear friend from the Series 2 Sock Puppet Portraits,
Henchley Von Gussington, has completed his Myspace profile and uploaded some of his…groundbreaking…compositions.
please check him out at:
myspace.com/henchleyvongussington

Henchley deeply wanted me to pass on a message himself –
“People and friends you are the feeling and the listening bell.
This is the SpiritHeartJourney in 3 of the movements. You feel it and the course moves from river to arrow. A blondness [ed. note: I really think he might mean "blindness" here, but I can never be sure] is another truth, the bear seeks the source factory and unites in the arms of the fly and the heart and the burger king. Please hear, listen. Listen for the bear, hear the burden, and unite.”

Welcome to the New Martystuff.com!

Just in time for the holidays, all 27 Sock Puppet Portraits are now available via the internet!

The web site is a little bit clunky in its glory, but we here at Monsterface Industries felt it was best to get it out there and fix it over time. The people must have their puppety pictures!

Additionally, the new web site has started to live up to its name now, too. Previously on martystuff.com, there were just 9 puppet pictures. I’ve added all the puppets as well as shining gateways to all the music stuff, a page for drawings (only a few now, more soon), some of my graphic design, and even a crummy bio. The best thing about it is that the site’s very flexible.

I’m definitely looking for feedback about the new site, so let me know what you think. Preferably in verse.

Super huge beyond-the-realm-or-scope-of-that-which-we-can-perceive-in-our-normal-spectrum-of- sight-or-taste-thanks to Paradise Dan Brennan of Uncle Monsterface fame for all of his help in setting this site up. He’s the reluctant and extraordinary web master for Uncle Monsterface, and it is no mistake that my new site looks a lot like ours. Thanks, Dan. You rule both schools, several of their pools, and the candy machine that I think is haunted.

Go buy puppety pictures!

yay!
lovemarty
