[Groop] Dessesbo Meter on the Rise!!!

[Gary Grossmann]

Hi Folks!

Gak!  Things had been going a little slowly lately on the Groo Search Front.
Than, wham! Sergio mentioned when he's here in Olympia that he will be doing
a page or so per month for a Norwegian publication.  The other guys thought
he was joking (he said, with an impish grin,that he was going to draw a
little Groo now and again so I would have to buy it), but I wasn't so sure
it was joke.  Then Ronny mentions it and I was able to confirm it via the
web.  If only I spoke, read and wrote Norwegian!!!

Then I decide to do one of my random checks on Brazil, since there are still
a couple recent Brazilian Groos I don't have and I discover another one has
come out!!!!   And in the course of searching for where I might find them, I
discovered there is a Brazilian Groo from 1992 that I had somehow missed!!
100 pages no less!!!  And then I found some Brazilian version of ebay where
one was sold (I think) just a week ago!  Oh, the pain!  If only I spoke,
read and wrote Portuguese!!!

So I'm gonna have to take an extended Groo Vacation or something.  The
pressure at work has really been amped up lately, but sometimes a Dessesbo's
gotta do what a Dessesbo's gotta do!  I can just imagine it now:

"No Boss, I can't go all around the state explaining the new sales tax
exemption on food products nor can I be the Department's representative in
explaining major tax incentive legislation in an effort to keep an airplane
manufacturer and it's dozens of subcontractors, representing 10 of thousands
of jobs, in our lovely state. Nope.  Can't do it.  I've got to go to Brazil
to find some comic books!!  Then I've got to go to Norway to subscribe to a
Norwegian humor publication."

I'm sure he'll understand.

Take care all Gary "Frequent Flyer Mileage" G.
