There's a HOBOTOPIA feed on twitter. It's found here.
There's also an account maintained by Aloysius, which requires significant effort to locate.
I also twitter, though I don't like to talk about it. That's the first rule of twitter.

Lantern-Out-Loud Cats #1078
Thanks, Joshua, for the perfect re-title. If you haven't peeked in on the comments over on flickr, there's been some pretty funny stuff posted over the last week or so.
More about Red Nose Day
Here's the details on the aforementioned charity event coming up this very Friday, straight from the horses mouths*.
I am putting the finishing touches on the All Mustache Edition of the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats Sell Out (which involves drawing lots of mustaches).
*these men are not horses.
Sunset Blvd
I'll be signing books at Meltdown Comics on Sunset Blvd on March 21st, starting at 3pm. I'll post more details soon. There's a Laugh-Out-Loud Cats fan club on facebook where you can see basically this same information, but through the lens of facebook.

For charity
Later this week I'll be auctioning a special All-Mustache Edition of the Laugh-Out-Loud Cats Sell Out. Watch this blog for details, and learn more about the upcoming festivities at RedNoseNet.com.

Congratulations to everyone who has won something from Aloysius' cryptic twitterfeed.

Auction news
The aforementioned sculpture of Pip, by the aforementioned Jason Klamm, is currently up for auction on ebay. Here's the link. With readers like you, I know it will find a good home.
Also, March 13th is Red Nose Day, as explained here. I'll be auctioning an annotated and additionally illustrated version of my new book, with 100% of the proceeds going towards the cause. I'll post teaser images and more info as they develop.
Finally: Crystal Pepsi! Sealed!

Laugh-Out-Loud Cats #1073
This is a spoiler. This is one of the 30 previously-unseen comics from the new book. Avert your eyes if you'd rather the surprise not be spoiled until you see it in print!
Thanks to everyone who has blogged, written, or otherwise transmitted information about the new book.
This will likely be the only book exclusive comic I'll post here. It seemed appropriate.

Following up on previously mentioned matters
The previously hidden twitter account of Aloysius G. Koford can be found here: http://twitter.com/veryoldman (as previously noted here).
Also: thank you to everyone who has sent a SASE for a free bookplate. So far I've been able to get them back in the mail the very next day. The P.O. Box to which you can send a SASE now appears on the right side of this blog.
Furthermore: I'll be signing books in LA in a few weeks. More on that as things develop.
Too: welcome visitors from BoingBoing!
Finally: Sandrino is a dandy photographer, and I always like seeing his close-ups of the things I send him.

Laissez les bon temps rouler!
Tonight's upcoming comic comes from an almost true story. I merely chipped my tooth on a king cake baby in 2002.
Also: my great-grandfather's twitter updates appear to the right.
Also also: thanks to everyone who has sent a SASE (see also the right side of this blog). They are heading back to you as I type this.

---Begin translation [with minor corrections]---
An important message from Aloysius.
Greetings from Pitcairn Island.
In order to combat the loneliness inherent to manning this desolate numbers station, I've started using twitter.com, as I'm sure many of you have (though I hope for better reasons than mine).
If you would like to find and follow me on Twitter, please refer to the first video featuring me on BoingBoing tv.
My Fark handle is the same as my Twitter handle, with no spaces.
Be the first to find me on Twitter and my no good great-grandson will send you something. [Congratulations @sgnp]
But wait, there's more: from time to time, I will post updates on Twitter that will begin and end with 3 stars. Like so: ***blah blah blah***
Be the very first to properly translate these starred tweets and you will receive one of many possible surprises:
Original art from "the laugh-out-loud cats sell out", signed postcards, or something else.
In order to win, simply be the first to reply with an "at" symbol, followed by my Twitter name, then the decoded message.
If you are the first, I will contact you in due time: there's no need to pester me. I am very old.
You will need to sign up with Twitter in order to win (you were going to anyway), and you can only win something once.
Good night. May the calming hiss of the ocean be your lullaby.
Also: would the first person kind enough to properly this screed please post the proper translate in the comments? [thank you, az and Evil Nickname, et al]

Updated SASE details
Here are the long-awaited answers to questions asked in the comments and elsewhere:
If you live outside the US, and your country no longer uses IRCs (I'm looking at you, Netherlands), just send a self-addressed envelope.
Also: if you are a member of the fan club, put your member number on the envelope somewhere.
Finally: regular sized envelopes are fine.
Thank you.

Charlie finds an appropriate pillow
I cannot guarantee the efficacy of using this book as a pillow, but who am I to tell a cat what to do?
Thanks schmuela!!!

NYCC
Here's a picture of me signing books at Comic Con in New York this weekend. Thanks to everyone who showed up and said hi and/or bought a book. It will be available to non-Comic Con attendees on March 1st and you can preorder it now on Amazon.
There will likely be other signings in LA, possibly San Diego, and maybe Salt Lake. I'll post more info as things develop.
If you don't get a chance to meet me in person (and who can blame you), I'll be sending out free signed bookplates via self-addressed stamped envelope once the book is out. More on that later as well.
I have some fun stuff planned for the coming weeks, so watch this space.

1825
(This image is what comes up when you search for "1825" in the creative commons pool on flickr (thanks cliff1066!).)
1825 also happens to be the booth number for Abrams at New York ComicCon, which I will be attending this weekend. I'll be signing my as-yet-to-be-released book there on Friday from 3 to 4, and Saturday from 11 to Noon.
This is not a winner
...because it's from last year. It didn't win then either. It's still my favorite though. He's got a tiny head! I should have made the butterfly gigantic.
But! One of my Tilley's did win and is on the New Yorker site this week: NYer.
There were many many excellent entries, though no one has yet gone to the extreme of getting Eustace Tilley tattooed on their noggin. There's always next year, someone.

Laugh-Out-Loud Cats #1051
As mentioned previously, I'll be attending ComicCon in NYC this weekend. There won't be a comic posted on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday as a result. I'll try to make it up to you all somehow.
Thank you.
