actually, the identity of the object in the nightmare room of the original jsw has always puzzled me. what

is it?

I always thought it was a
magnet.

so what's the object above the front door, then?

:)

Obviously some sort of face - possibly a rabbit's head (an
interpretation encouraged by "Bright Eyes" in JSW Ivy). For some
reason best known to my subconscious, I associate it
with the song "Right" from David Bowie's Young
Americans album! :-)

Actually, the item
in We Pretty's "PLAY HOUSE" is a gargoyle of some
kind - that was inspired by "The Front Door"!
:-)

I tell you what though, I wouldn't mind going to one of Willy's parties. I mean, a
party where light fixtures, bath taps and even new born chicks are reduced to rubbish? That's some wild night! :-D Actually, has anyone ever identified the object on the beach? It might be a shell, but secretly I like to

think it's a block of cheese

I always thought it
was a pair of sandwiches, or possibly a slice of
pie.
