Hi Folks!
In my never ending and ultimately futile attempts to get organized, a
certain part of my house is now suitable for displaying some of my Groo
items, if such a thing is possible within an uncondemned property. So I
have been getting things framed and the like. Coincidentally(?), the place
where I work has recently moved and after 10 years in my own office I have
been relegated to a cubical! A stark, drab, life sucking cubicle with
surround-sound white noise at that. So in part for revenge and in part to
preserve what little sanity I may have left, I decided to take some of the
Groo things I had intended to put up at home and Groo-ify my humble little
cell.
Of course, I must do this incrementally, so as not to attract too much
attention from the powers that be before some of the stuff has been there so
long they can’t complain about it. I started out with a couple sets of Groo
magnets on the metal filing cabinets. Then I added two 2’ x 3’ fiberboard
Dark Horse display posters. Now this past weekend, I brought in my
regular-size Groo mass market poster and my Groo card sheets. The sheets
work out great because I put them over these stupid little windows so when
you are in my cubicle you see all the cards and when you are outside you can
see many of the card backs with Mark’s commentary.
And the Grooification of my cubicle will continue! I’ve got lots of other
things to bring in and when the PVC figures come out I’ll put out a set of
those. (I ordered two, of course.) They can go right in front of the
Popeye doll and the Gorilla with the King Kong tie. (Hey, if you had to
discuss the taxability of sewage collection, treatment, and disposal with
tax attorneys, you might be this way too.)
Take care all –Gary G.
