Can someone supply the page number for the following quotation? (FZ is
talking about WOIIFTM and CWRATJ, about a quarter of the way through the
interview.)

It is actually a cow in the picture from the set of "Head"; on page 8 not a
pig. The quote Charles referenced is on this same page.


At the bottom it says "Please see ZAPPA page 10" referencing where the
article continues. The wording almost caused me to identify it as page 10.

It's the same girl in the pig book as in the cow book.

i believe piper was making a funny, referancing the children's song
"old mcdonald" and it's chorus of "EIEIO". this in response to
charles' ending his message with "TIEIA", which meaning i'm not
totally sure of, but i believe to mean something about "thanks in
advance".

Even I don't know what TIEIA stands for. But it is indeed a Kentish
variant of TIA.
