<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Folks,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The bad news is that I will not be attending the
San Diego Con this year. The worse news is that the reason I won't be
attending is because the Long Suffering Mrs. G. took a very nasty fall tonight
and busted her shoulder all to heck. (Like broken for real in at least three
places!) It was just one of those freak things. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So of course I will be staying home and taking care
of her with the help of Claire (aka, Claire Bear, aka the Bestest Daughter in
the Known Universe). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry that I will not be able to track down a
handful of the Special Con MAD Magazines, but maybe George or Eric or The
Kunster can get a few of 'um. </FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anywho, I just thought I'd let you all know so that
those of you who are attending would not be shocked by my non-appearance.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Take care all,</FONT></DIV>
