my demented dogs

I had purchased a wallet when I must have been 20. [If I recall, that was probably when I needed to start putting all the money I began making into something a little more organized than just a wad in my jeans. I already had a more important wad in my jeans and didn't want to confuse the two - but that's another story.]

Anyway, this wallet came complete with a picture of dogs so you would understand how to use the photo sleeves. [ In the 70's, wallet consumers were pretty dumb, you know.] So, rather than throw it away, I decided to perform some cosmetic surgery on the pooches with my electric eraser and circle-template. Voila!  Years before Photoshop was even conceived, I had started down my path of distorting reality.
