<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hi Folks!<BR><BR>Once again I am way
behind on my e-mails. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Speaking of personality disorders,
somehow I ended up with three of those little jewels and I'm not even sure how
that happened. They are rather delicate to be sure. When I took one
out of the box for the first time one of Groo's swords came off. I think
Mark said the same thing happened to him. I veerrrryyyy carefully super glued it
back on. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Delicateness notwithstanding, one is
dangling from my Groo stuff Bookcase while the other two are safely tucked
away. Probably something weird will happen in an earthquake or something
where the two in the boxes will be crushed and one hanging out in the open will
be OK. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hey Mark! Sorry to hear about
your wrist. That's the only advantage to typing like I do-with two fingers
and wrists in a natural position. Of course, I have to look at the
keyboard and my speed tops out at about 30 words per minute (usually much
slower). And while some of my compatriots might eventually get an
Industrial Insurance claim for carpal tunnel, I figure the most I could get for
wearing out the top joint of each index finger is a couple of two-for-one
Starbucks certificates and the nickname "stubby." </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>More dated replies to come. (I
wonder what all those messages titled "miniatures" are about?)

[Groop] Tragedy<BR><BR><BR>> Friends,<BR>><BR>> A great tragedy has
befallen me. I had recently<BR>> bought a corner computer desk, and it
had two shelves<BR>> on which I decided to display my Groo and Usagi<BR>>
Yojimbo merchandise.<BR>><BR>> I had my Groo ornamenton one of the
shelves, but not<BR>> hangong because I have yet to get something to hang
it<BR>> with.<BR>><BR>> alas, the other day, I bumped into my desk, and
my<BR>> groo ornament fell from the shelf and landed on my<BR>> keyboard
and nearly broke Groo's leg off.<BR>><BR>> Rufferto's leg is chipped and
Groo's leg is hanging by<BR>> a thread.<BR>><BR>> Let this be a lesson
to everyone: buy two of<BR>> everything (one to keep mint, and one to
use!)<BR>><BR>> Sadly<BR>> Jacob S.<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>
