I sent out a number of cards this Christmas but for some reason decided to not send them out to people I E-Mail to. Seems like the proper environmentally sensitive tree (not Christmas Tree) hugging thing to do. I thought in terms of graphics of trying do the early 70's computer geek thing of making the shape of a Christmas Tree out of X's, but that probably won't format correctly in E-mail. Anyway, here's a go at it: X XX XXX XXXX XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX X X XXX Please note that I put a couple of extra rows in there to make it a macho, extra tall Canadian tree in the spirit of advertisements for Canadian brews (or are they really stunted up there because of the cold, like the people? Actually our office just hired a woman from Canada who is really wonderful. She worked for a fairly well known Canadian Architect whose name I can't at the moment recall but whom I'm sure you are familiar with. I'll follow up with an E-mail on that issue later. Sorry I don't always answer your E-mails, but I'm rarely on line and usually see them in printed form when I'm off line so I can't immediately fire back. Anyway, thanks for keeping me on your list. Perhaps sometime we will get to see each other again. You are sort of becoming like all those young women I meet over the Internet and don't actually get to see - er, nevermind. (Just kidding - I haven't reached that stage yet.) I hope everything is going well with you and your family and with the City of Brotherly Love in gereral. What do you think of Rendell? He seems to be getting pretty good PR, at least down here. Happy Holidays and best wishes for 1998, Erik - --part0_882996530_boundary-- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Dec 1997 17:43:43 EST From: RThurF Subject: Alloy:Headroom/SeeMoose;Think....

This was one of Dave's very favorite shows during its initial run, but I myself have never seen a single episode!! I'd LOVE to see it though. With any luck it'll be available for rent from the video place. Sadly, I've never been much of a tv watcher - I've never even seen that wildly popular show that Thomas' beautiful wife was on in the 80's (Does anyone know what other work she has done?) Dave and I are about to depart for Maine to visit his family and do some moose-dodging. So 'till we meet again... HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!

I've been busy, busy, busy, right up to the last moment and appear to have been the last one out of the office yesterday (i.e. Christmas Eve). I can now open the last few little doors on my Teletubbies (TM) Advent Calendar and eat the rather dubious chocolate therein. For those of you not in the UK who have not experienced the joy of the Teletubbies (TM), you have my sympathy (or maybe that should be'envy'). Anyway, I'm rambling again. Sorry. I don't know about the rest of you, but this is the least Christmassy Christmas I think I've ever had, perhaps because we've been so dog damn busy at work. But never mind, I'm determined to get into the spirit now that I actually have a couple of days off, in fact the occife is closed until next Tuesday. Hooraah!! Cheers.
