"AGNUS DUKE"

YOU HAVE TO SEE AGNUS TO SEE HER. BELIEVING HER IS A
DIFFERENT STORY. SHE WAS CREATED BY JAMES WITH HELP FROM
HIS MOTHER. AGNUS DUKE IS A PERFORMER WHO CAN'T HOLD A
TUNE, MUCH LESS SING ONE. SHE STARRED IN HER FIRST VIDEO
UNDER THE POINTLESS PRODUCTIONS LABEL, WHICH WAS OUT IN
APRIL OF 1985. FORTUNATELY, IT WAS BANNED FROM NETWORK
TELEVISION BEFORE ITS FIRST SCHEDULED AIR DATE. UNFORTUNATELY,
POINTLESS PRODUCTIONS IS NOW IN THE PROCESS OF SHOOTING
A NEW, BIOGRAPHICAL-FEATURE FILM ALL ABOUT AGNUS. IT WILL
BE OUT IN APRIL OF 1986. HER LIFE HAS SO MUCH VALUABLE LORE
IN IT THAT I WILL NOT BEGIN TO ENTER IT NOW. FRANKLY, I AM
COMPUTER TERMINALLY ILL, SO I WON'T FINISH IT NOW EITHER.
INSTEAD, I WILL SUBMIT THE TAPES INTO THE FOLKLORE ARCHIVES.
