milkeggsvodka.com [A book by Bill Keaggy]

I like this list because someone is obviously trying to start a new home.

And with that, I’ll call it a wrap on the List of the Day for May (every day). I’ll be posting more here and there…

Hey, my book may be kinda funny, but it also could make you think…
I went grocery shopping today, somewhere between talking to my mom on the phone and chasing my dog at the dog park. This isn’t spectacular. People do this every day. I do this at least twice a week. No big deal.
But, I [...]

Check out this fun (and clever) article by Jeff Houck of the Tampa Tribune. He wrote a story about me and my book, “Milk Eggs Vodka,” in the form of a list! It’s featured on the front of the food section, Flavor. An excerpt:

“Nest Tea.” NEW IMPROVED FLAVOR! Now with EVEN MORE bird droppings!

I can’t believe it’s not better either, but for $1.19 — who cares?!

Um, how do you spell sheik? Oh yeah, I need toothpaste.

You better be brushing your teeth if that’s all you eat.

I talked to Chad Garrison of the Riverfront Times here in St. Louis last week. Here’s the Q&A:
In 1997 Bill Keaggy discovered a discarded grocery list in a south-city Schnucks. Ten years later, Keaggy has published his first-ever book, Milk Eggs Vodka, documenting some of the 1,700 grocery lists he has collected since. Last week [...]

For the worst spelling of “bananas” so far.

Pop City is a publication of the School of Communications Design Studies at Grant MacEwan College in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Carly Koshman interviewed me, Found Magazine’s Davey Rothbart and artist Blair Brennan for the third issue of the text/image/design magazine.
Ever since i discovered Found Magazine, the discarded items of strangers have fascinated me… Bill Keaggy [...]
