On our trip to Wisconsin, we had
to go to see the Johnson Wax Building. Of course, it's not open to the
public except for very specific times, so we saw it from a distance.

|
| We saw this saucer-shaped structure ...
What could it be? I don't remember. |
|
| We stayed with Scott, who is the finest
person in the world. We all wanted to move in with him after our visit.
What a nice person! I showed movies at his bar, and he generally showed
us all the cool things in the region. It was great to meet him after a ten
or so years correspondence based on fanzines. |

| Jennifer Montgomery lives in Wisconsin,
too. I hadn't seen her since about 1992 in New York. I think we had lunch
together at Mogador. She was at Astria Suparak's touring film program there,
at Stephanie Barber's. |

Speaking of Stephanie; she operates a really cool
film screening venue out of her home with a bunch of other artists/filmmakers.
I think that the situation was in some landlord-related jeopardy, so I
don't know if it is still happening. Stephanie makes beautiful and sort
of acerbic short movies, and sews, and does a thousand other groovy things.

| Well, it wouldn't have been the allstar
weekend without running into Bill Basquin. I didn't know Bill was from the
region, until John told me so. Everyone in town knows Bill (just like here
in SF!) |
