can i just say that i love CW? i remember going into the archive once while it was here in Berkeley, pre-tattooed days, riding my bike and walking in all sweaty. i just sort of stood there in amazement of all his stuff! he was tattooing someone (looked like he could've been a biker) and he asked, "can i help you?" in this kind of gruff voice, and i was nervous and squeaked out "no, i just came to look!" he kind of shook his head, but kept on tattooing and let me stand there in awe haha. probably thought "damn, nerdy punk kid!" it was a 6 year dream come true for me!
anyways, i've been in contact with him a bit over the last year, but i plan on contacting him again soon, this time via phone, and i'm hoping to stay in contact with him for a while. i may be on a plane heading to NC sometime in the next 4 months if with my research picking up.
