I have not personally heard of the V> person you have mentioned in the V> "Baphomet" deck, but I, too, would be really happy V> to hear any comments on him. Do you like the new V> deck? It really sounds great, as I have been an HR V> Geiger fan for some time now, and thrive on his art. I will be posting the name of the publisher here in a few days (someone borrowed the deck -- I'll have it back by the end of the week) for those who are having trouble finding the deck. I found mine in the local occult shoppe. Most good shops can order you a deck from a catalog if you request it. I like the deck, too. I love Giger's work, as well. He has numerous art books out that I've found in comic books stores in the "adult" section that are really wild. Good luck in your hunt!

I've never seen "The Tingler," but I'll be sure to check it out. (Gawd, all this really explains why I like "Spinal Tap" so much!)

It consists only of the 22 LB> Major Arcana, and utilizes paintings by H.R. Giger (of "Alien" fame). LB> The paintings are extremely dark and ominous. I was unaware of this. I'll check it out this weekend at our local occult bookseller. 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694718 From: Deep Black Area: Base of Set To: Michael Aquino 20 Jul 94 18:24:00 Subject: Re: RE: Giger's Tarot UpdReq MA> You must be into spinal columns.

For total effect one could hook up a TENS unit to the back and flip it on at the crucial juncture!

My two favorite parts of "This is Spinal Tap" was when the bass player kept setting off the metal detector at the airport with the foil wrapped cucumber he kept in his trousers for effect and the interview with Nigel at home while he tinkered at the piano. Interviewer: "Thats kind of a nice ditty your playing there." Nigel: "Yeah, it's kind of a cross between Mozart and Bach. I guess you could call it a "Mock" number. 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694718
