Sorry, Chronos, not much to say on the octo dreams…stupid brain keeps focusing on a talk I have to give next week, and won’t shut up about it even at night.

Let you know on later devolopment, though, I sure look forward to it… I absolutely thank you for the exquisite image.

Having been to many antique shows, it’s long been my opinion that many artists in ancient Japan and China did nothing but make porn. You name the style and erotic examples can easily be found- not to mention the awesome amount and variety of carved dildoes.
