Nice avatar! Hope you find this thread (and the Forum, in general) to be as informative and fun as i do!
My friend made a pretty thorough documentation of the Gingerbread Man CD-ROM if anyone's like me and has been dying to see it in action for years now. (Thanks to Mort Portos for the knowledge I could then pass on to the uploader!)
As someone who regrets not picking this up when it was actually available I appreciate your efforts...thanks to Sleeper and Mort...

Hey kbmh, I was reading this article on Homer and his graphics work, and one of the images looked familiar: I thought you'd dig it.
Ha! There it is! Great article. It'd be great if Homer started taking a little more of the "analog" route with the Rz artwork. I've really been loving the artwork that Casey Howard's been doing for Secret Records. Very striking. That reminds me, I'll need to take a picture of the Third Reich And Roll artwork set they put out many years ago that includes a plastic carrot. I keep considering framing it but I keep thinking the framing guy I go to would be a bit weirded out... and what was edgy satire might not have aged quite as well. It could make for uncomfortable Thanksgiving conversations. (Crap! I just looked the framing guy I go to and he's moved to Lexington, VA. Dang it!)
This would actually work really well as extra DVD with the Gingerbread Man preserved Edition. I've always enjoyed the album a lot and it's really cool to have this as a video collection companion!
I could imagine them cleaning out storage. I don't remember exactly when the garage sales moved from around 2nd and Brannan to Minna. I bet they would have issues with big props and the massive Mole images.
I know the Homer Flynn gallery show at Johansson Gallery was a while ago, but the gallerys Flicker photo stream was a new find for me. It has some nice photos of the show itself, and them some other art photos that weren't posted on their website. So, I'll just spam these here.

If I'm reading things correctly, Night Flight Plus has a free 7-day trial, and you can stream their content using any web-browser, so one wouldn't need a Roku/Firestick/streaming box or tv. Just a computer.
Good gravy! Night Flight! Now I feel old! That was at times some really screwy programming - and thank goodness. It was an alternative to watching "Big Log" by Robert Plant for the umpteenth time on MTV.
Homer did a Q&A through Discord yesterday! The transcript of the conversation lives on this page: Homer Flynn Discord Q&A, May 10th 2021
That was impressive. How cool of Sanborn to do a proper multimedia thing instead of just an interview. He probably realizes he likes to go on a bit and holds your attention by adding all the little picture and video bits
