Reaching back
Got a note from the guys at the Web store saying that some back issues were needed to fill orders. Issues 21 and 22--nice. Cover stories with artists Murakami and Chiho, interviews with film gods Beat Takeshi, Tony Leung, Wong Kar-Wai, Jackie Chan, and Kowloon Walled City pics from Greg Girard, Dan Wu's trip to Cambodia, and HK designer Wing Shya? Those were solid magazines.
Time to go to the shed...
This is where the back issues are kept.
Like Limahl once said, let's get a little closer.
It's a lot of work to take all the boxes out, so I just crawl over the top. There's at least 18 inches of crawlspace, and I haven't bonked my head yet. That's shocking but I'm kind of clumsy (yet flexible).
The mags are arranged roughly in a spiral. From the doorway, early issues are at your immediate left and issue numbers go up clockwise. Issues 21 and 22 should be straight ahead, maybe two or three shelves down.
I can reach GR21, but GR22 will mean climbing down and jamming myself between piles of mags. Good thing I don't need to get to the bottom shelf.
I'm glad an earthquake didn't happen when I was down there.
To get back, follow the light.

Reminds me of that episode of the Simpsons when Bart joins the mob and is suspected of "offing" Principal Skinner when in fact he was trapped in his garage under a pile of newspapers that were stacked for recycling.
Haha!
