Speaking of which, I shall be traversing the Mohave Desert tomorrow, in an attempt to reach Thanksgiving at the hobbit house in Arizona. My husband's grandpa engineered and built his house in the desert, shaped like a doughnut, underground, in the 50's I think. It's weird, you drive up and see a garage. You haveta look down to find the atrium (doughnut hole is open kinda like the eye of a hurricane). Happy Turkey Day to all of you American Alloyites who celebrate, and a fond thank you to all for ....well, all that you do. I'm thankful to have lots of friends here.

Brown" Subject: Alloy: I sure am thankful today! Hi Alloyed, I just wanted to thank three people on Alloy for making my birthday extra special this year. First, my gratitude goes to Michael Luckey for being so generous in sharing his signed A&H flats. And obviously, thanks are due to TMDR for taking the time to sign them. And the big thank you goes to my sweetie, Stephen Tilson, for not only obtaining one for me but for painstakingly mounting and framing it with a lovely beige linen backing and elegant black frame. And here I thought my only Thomas-related gift this year was going to be the email message! The efforts of all three of you are very much appreciated. I hope that all of you here in the US have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I sure am enjoying mine!

Hi all, Sorry I've been a tad quiet of late, I've been taking a bit of a break from all things net for a while. Anyway, I come asking a favour. If you get a quiet moment's pause and feel the inclination, it'd be great if you could send some 'get well' vibes towards a small country town called Motueka which nestles on the side of an inlet at the northern end of New Zegend's south island. Specifically, if you could direct these thoughts to a gentleman I love, respect, and admire one helluva lot, my dad, who I just heard this morning is doing battle with cancer despite radiotherapy 6 months ago. Sorry for the wet blanket stuff, this is about all I can do for now, though I'm poised to fly back over there if things start looking worse. Anyway, enough from me, back to our regularly scheduled programme... Paul. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Hey Alex me old droog - you should come down to the Korova Milk Bar and have a little milk plus vellocet, o my brother (er sister). We could take in a little Thomas Morgan - real horrorshow like.
