Hi Folks!
Well that was a weird few days. Cut off from my disconnect from the =
real world!!! Glad that's over with!!! There's Home Life, Work Life, =
and Groo Life. The one in the middle I could do without, but it's the =
only one that pays the bills. At least it's out numbered again! =20
On the subject of Groop T-Shirts: Boy, Nate, are you a Party =
Pooper!!!!! The shirts will not cost very much at all. I guess this =
guy does them different or something from what you are familiar with, =
but the Text only shirts will cost only about $8.00!! Yes, that's =
right, a high quality (I've seen samples) T-Shirt for $8.00. Even the =
fancy one would only be about $15.00.
Unfortunately, after further discussions, it turns out the Groo =
Accutrements shirt might be too complicated to be done well. It's not a =
matter of cost so much as the process. I'm going to check into it some =
more, but it doesn't look good. However, after sifting through all of =
the e-mails, it looks like there will be at least 50 shirts to order! =
(the score was an even three-way split between text-only, accutrements, =
and don't care which) And we can probably get an even split of putting =
the Groop address on the front/Did I Err? on the back and vice versa. =
I'll have more infor in a week. But more input on using Groo.com or =
Groop@groo.com and any other input would be great! Nothing on hats yet. =
=20
I picked up my copy of the Groo & Rufferto TPB. Wow! My name is in it! =
Tooooo Cooool!! Thanks Mark! (even though, of course, I am not =
obsessed)
Speaking of which, I found a here-to-for undocumented Groo Sighting!!! =
I got a batch of CAPS Newsletters from the late 80's and early 90's and =
one had a wrap-around Sergio drawing that included two Groos and a =
Chakaal, among others!!!! This is the 159th item on the Other Original =
Groo Appearances section of the Official Unofficial Groo List, which =
totals well over 1000 items. (but I am not obsessed!) =20
btw, CAPS is the Comic Artist Professional Society co-founded by Mark, =
Sergio and one other guy whom I can't remember way back in 1978. =20
Well, in about six hours I'm leaving for my annual trip to the LA area =
to pick up my son from College. It's a real complicated trip. Turn =
left, drive half a mile down Blomberg, Turn left, drive half a mile down =
93rd, Turn right, drive 1000 miles down I-5. See, short and simple =
(Just like me!) Have a good weekend everybody (and stay off I-5) =
Take care -Gary G. =20
