Announcing Crap Hound #8: Superstition Winter 2010


A message from Sean, "After all the arguments, the laughter and the tears, the fists and the flowers, after all the passion and fire and heartbreak and joy, Issue No. 8 will feature Superstition. It’s going to be an interesting issue. Once the usual black cats, four leaf clovers, broken mirrors, crossed fingers and horseshoes have been covered, I’ll have to turn to more innocuous items like coins, umbrellas, salt shakers, wishing wells, wishbones, matches and cigarettes, candles, clocks, chains, charms, and bells. Focus will inevitably spiral outward to brooms, bread, moons, shooting stars, calendars, robins, crickets, crows, peas, pancakes, pins and needles, knives, nails, acorns, sneezes, cakes, moths, butterflies, bees, and ladybugs. Everything from culturally acceptable childhood OCD habits to the professional baseball player who has to have sex with a grey cat before each home game. The net will be cast wide enough to include the lucky and unlucky alike, the auspicious, the ominous, the common and obscure, modern and forgotten.. all the crazy cuckoobird batshit crazyface nutbird customs that make life so interesting."
