I would've responded sooner but, alas! My computer crashed and burned and I've JUST now gotten back online. I just wanted to say a quick thanks here to June and Joni (for the concert and for the raffle) and to Murray for picking my name (after rejecting another potential winning ticket first. My almost sincere apologies to whomever that was. j/k). /me hugs her Fruvous jersey. I also would like to mention that I wore the Fruvous jersey to the Flyers game on Saturday *grin* (the Flyers won so the jersey will be making a return engagement on Dec. 19th).

I'll volunteer to talk hockey trash with Jian (or anyone else) anytime :) I think we brought it on ourselves however, by wearing the jerseys. I thought it was fun, even though he had the last word by making us take them off for our picture. Oh well. WE know Jian is surrounded by Flyers fans in those pics :) Still on a Fruvous high.... - -- Trace gemini@p3.net "I'm not clever enough to be unintelligible." - -Jane Austen, "Northanger Abbey" "It would have to be the most inglorious death of all, 'The Bathroom Accident.'" - -Murray Foster, on the preferred manner of death for Fruvous publicity. ------------------------------ End of alt.music.moxy-fruvous digest V2 #23 *******************************************
