[Jandek] Photoshop

[Jonathan Bell]

It contradicts the impression one gets from the article, but not the article 
itself. It's explained in the Vine article that the man she found was a 
white collar professional... what white collar professional in the late '90s 
doesn't know how to use a computer? He probably uses the internet plenty, 
but never does so for pleasure, only work. Nonetheless, this is definitely 
the mostintriguing Jandek cover art yet... has anyone gone over other albums 
from the last five or six years to see if any of them are altered?
