Hm. Nasty situation, I know, I've been there.

I know of no existing or planned digital collection of Jim's work. The
problem is that even with someone as loose about piracy as Jim is, a digital
collection is one that's just *begging* to be stolen. As far as I know,
there isn't really a good on-disk collection that's sold well, and it
probably wouldn't be worth the considerable amount of time it would take to
make such a thing. Or at least that's how I see it, anyone's welcome to
prove me wrong...

The roomie thing, well, all I have to say is that it's usually not worth
bothering about. I often make jokes about the lengths I go to to hide my
stuff, but the fact is that they know about it already, and really don't
give a damn. Unless you're in with some real potentially violent nutcases
(or a fundamentalist, in which case you should just shoot him), it prolly
wouldn't kill you if they found out, so don't limit yourself on that score.
Don't hide your lunacy, live it up! =P

About the Canada thing, all I know is that it's really starting to piss me
off, how many furry fans there are in the Big Freezy that can't get their
furry fix in the mail. Exactly WHAT is the situation up there? They can't
actually open packages looking for this stuff, right? It's just a matter of
who'll ship where? If that's the case, I've been wondering if it'd be
possible to set up a relay system of sorts, where you Candinadians (I love
my little brother's word, it's just so CUTE =P) could find the stuff being
sold down here, send the money to some generous (or just bored) US citizens,
who would procure the stuff and send it up by personal mail for a small
price (or for free, but these days that might be asking much). Couldn't do
it myself (at least, not till I get my own apartment), but I know there's
plenty around here who might have the connections for such a thing.
Any takers?

Eh?

It really sucks living in Edmonton where no comix store seems to
carry any of Jims work. And it sucks even more living in a dorm with
NO privacy. So; where is this all going you ask?..

I have been looking for a "digital" collection of Jims art.

I sent him a message, re the aforementioned, but have not recieved a
response, I don't want to bother him too much but I kinda want an
answer.

Does anyone know if its available or will be or could be?

Bloody snow damnit)
