Famed illustrator Philip Burke has said no (via his soft-spoken wife) to an interview I was pre-yes contracted to do for a shiny happy mag. Does't he know that everything cannot be perfect in my world if I don't get my way? So now the periodical is sicking me on rock star/little folk singer Ani DiFranco, who I painted houses with before we were grownups. If she grants me the big I I'll probably have to assure her that our Scruffy Dog Painting Co. past will not see the light of day in ink.
