If there's one mysterious name in the annals of the Church of the
SubGenius that I've been wanting to know more about, it would be the
name of Dr. Ahmed Fishmonger. All I know about this guy is that he
apparently lived here in Massachusetts at one time, he's created
collage art and original artwork that rivals the best stars in the
Church, and he's supposed to be as kooky as many of us (or even more
so). I stumbled across a Web page that apparently belongs to this
guy, at:

http://www.xenolite.org/Get-Stupid/fishmonger/fishmonger-entrance.html

This is part of the Institute for Parallel Studies site, which appears
to be a project managed by Fishmonger at: http://www.xenolite.org/

I'm afraid you're mistaken. Ahmed Fishmonger died in 1989 of bone cancer.

If you'd spend a little more time in Harvard Square you'd probably run
into him. He is not shy of strangers, so contact him if you like. He
wrote a Ragtime Science Fiction story for that excellently obsessive
publication The Ragtime Ephemeralist
http://home.earthlink.net/~ephemeralist/index.html under his slave
name S. K. Deitch and illustrated by his brother, Kim. Leave it to
Fishmonger to create an entirely new subgenre of fiction.

His brother appears in the film "Re-Animator" at the end, as the bearded
doctor whose medical role is to stare at Barbara Crampton's breasts. Lucky
dog.
