that means the Cult of Cthulhu will soon have certain benefits. for instance, we will be eligible for tax exempt status, be able to accept public and private grants, be able to receive federal tax deductible charitable donations, possible exemption of property tax (for when we start building brick and mortar temples), the CoC will be a separate and legal entity which will protect assets, limit liability and make sure that the CoC will survive after the death of my flesh. oh and best of all... a discount on stamps! Ia Ia Cthulhu fatagn!!! ;D
all kidding aside, the Cult of Cthulhu Inc. will become a full fledged non-profit corporation in about a month's time when all the paperwork is finished. not only will the above advantages assist our Great Work, but the symbolic nature of the act is also important. for any who misguidedly believe the CoC is a fad, a game, a scam, or a joke... well, this should cement our religion's legitimacy.
the further we infect reality, the more substantial our vision becomes.

p.s. check out the CoC forum post to discuss this event: http://cocthulhu.proboards105.com/
that's the direct link. you can also find it by clicking on the Alien Demons, Swords and Magic portion of the main website.
also, my interview with Mythos artist Paul Carrick can be found at the Eldritch-Infernal.com site. if you don't see any updates, refresh your screen a couple times.
any further discussion of the C2C should be posted on the CoC forum thread. thanks for helping me promote this gathering in 2009.
(hey, how's it going? feel free to re-post this in a bulletin or on your own blog)
ok, the updates are done and... up. what has changed? the look of the main page has changed www.CultofCthulhu.net , as well as, the addition of a new area. a newsletter sign-up page which is how people shall receive The Green Trapezoid! yes, this quarterly e-zine will contain information on current goings-on, short essays on Cultish topics, and fun things. so please sign-up when convenient.
lastly, my prose poem Unbearable Fruit is on the other site: www.Eldritch-Infernal.com ...interestingly enough, Unbearable Fruit is just as "inspired" and oppressive/difficult as the Meta-Sigil itself. i had the title as a dead link long before i began work on the poetry. in a way, this work is a piece of word magic. not everyone will enjoy it, however. and that's perfectly fine; as it should be.
alright, if you have feedback, then post it here on the CoC forum thread.
lulu.com is the print on demand company which publishes Cthulhu Cult, our bible. this May, lulu is having a special on bulk orders which means extra savings for all of us... (i'm still waiting for my personalized quote). i will be ordering approximately 250 books for direct sales.
the best part is that i've decided now is the time to make a casewrapped hardcover edition of Cthulhu Cult - identical to the paperback and PDF. i'm going to sell them myself in order to save both of us money. including shipping and handling, the price of Cthulhu Cult in hardcover will be $35. to put this in perspective, the softcover retails for about $25 (unsigned) and the limited edition black leather edition went for about $200 a year ago.
the new hardcover of our bible is available only through me and will also be signed by me, High Priest Venger Satanis!!! and shipped to you direct after receiving your money order (made payable to Darrick Dishaw or well-hidden cash of $35 (the preferred methods of payment). for international orders outside the US, add an additional $5 for shipping.

latest video. with the camcorder i have now (the flip ultra occasionally advertised here on myspace), you can either hear me relatively well or you can see my entire upper torso and head... not both. ;)
thanks for watching. will probably be upgrading my camcorder very soon.
thanks for creating this, Madguten. everyone, spread this around! my own youtube videos will be appearing in a few weeks (flip ultra camcorder has shipped)
