ME: The last column I handed in has no explanation of why it's my last
column. They may ask me to write a real last one, in which case I'll
say something like, "I don't like this publisher very much lately and
I have better things to do with my time."

ME: The pic on the website is of the actual Magic Castle, which is a
private club I belong to. You can read about it at their website.
The house itself is an old mansion in Hollywood that they converted
into a restaurant and club. (By the way, Carolyn and I were there
last night with Gordon Kent and his wife.)
>Any chance for a 20th anniversary Groo T-Shirt? I'll buy half a dozen!
ME: I don't know. Bob Chapman of Graphitti is coming by on Tuesday to
pick up the signed bookplates for the new hardcover. Maybe I'll
discuss it with him then.
