Part 29½
The last edition takes place a month later, because I first needed to find a job in Holland to earn the money to travel to Copenhagen. As I am rather short of cash this very moment it seems a good idea to end the story in real-time. The 30 editions actually cover a year. The final edition will appear on May 25th. If it so happens that some readers might get impatient I invite the lot of you to write your own ending and send it to me. I will award the most original ones with a copy of my brand new DVD, ‘Dolphin Address’. This ‘must have’ will contain:
-Hippie Love in its final, most exciting version
-two recent translations of youth sins and 15 tourist stories (with Willem Verhulst at the helm)
-an anthology of ‘Dolphin Addresses’ from 2002 until now
-a video selection of the most remarkable encounters with Dusty, in large (3CCD) beamer projection size
-a photo gallery of available sculpture
-a photo gallery of the intimate beauty of ‘The Burren’, both in pixel sizes that allow poster reproduction.
Do not forget to include ten euros in order to be considered for competition.

You can also support me on my Dutch ‘giro’ account: 2153717 under the name of J.B. Ploeg.
The ‘Dolphin Address’ DVD can also be ordered by using the contact form on the site.
During the competition month, exceptional videos will be shown in the video department. Last July I cooperated for 6 days with the French TV-production company Mona Lisa (
www.monalisa-prod.com) for the TV-production ‘Humanimals’ about animal intelligence. This will be broadcast this summer. You’ll get a taste of it in the three weeks ahead.
Stay tuned and predict my past.
As many of you know by now I do not do dolphin tours. After lengthy consideration I see reason to make an exception to this rule for those who effectively contribute to the continued existence of ‘Dolphin Address’. I welcome your proposal.
To be continued: '…one and only…'
