The "Hide & Seek" book has Grover taping himself to the pages and gluing himself....the pictures actually really could work for the Monster story. So I just have to like with the fact that I had some sort of memory glitch. :) The everything in the whole wide world museum is my absolute favorite though....the pictures were all wonderful. :) And now that I know I can get it online I'll just have to check it out. :) Andrea K.

It actually, thrill of thrills, falls at a good time for me (not on the road, not on vacation, happily midway in between). Consider it penciled into my schedule.

Oh, well, then you're gonna LOVE Falcon Ridge even more. Not only is it a music fest, there are also plenty of booths set up with various stuff you can gape at, buy and even make. Everything from handpuppets to beads, clothing to musical instruments. Perpetual drum jams going on at the drumseller's booth. Amazing stuff. The festival is VERY kid-friendly. The most family-oriented thing I've ever been to, I think. And plenty of camping space; in fact, a great most people who go to FRFF end up camping out. If it's really not your thing, I hear there are some hotels nearby; the camping experience is a lot of fun, though, not to be missed. Having gone to FRFF for the past three years, I can attest that, no matter where you camp on that field, you will end up meeting the most amazing people.

It said in the notes for Neverwhere that he was supposed to have something out soon, and one book that I thought it said it was already out, but I've looked and the only books under his listing in the bookstores I've seen were Good Omens and Neverwhere.

Thanks to everybody who got their t-shirt order in on time. The deadline for Brent and Marianne to receive orders is Feb. 2nd. February 2nd is also the deadline for them to receive FruCon stories!! Those of you who ordered FruCon t-shirts last year *MUST* remember the care and love that also went into the packaging. From the label to the enclosed printed materials. It was as much as keepsake as the shirt itself. This year, Brent and Marianne have asked for *OUR* help in the printed materials. So, please send them your stories from FruCon I. I know y'all must have stories. Was getting across the border some sort of wacky adventure? Did you meet up with new FruHeads that weekend? Anything interesting happen while strolling the streets of Toronto? Have a funny tale from the James Joyce Pub? FruCon I was a great weekend. Think of how nice it will be to relive it when your t-shirt comes. And what a nice prep it will be for people new to the FruCon Experience. Tell Brent and Marianne your story. Email them at: zone5@home.com Thanks! Mary PS You can still preregister for FruCon II. Preregistered folks get ALL the latest info. To get on the list, email me at frucon2@canada.com ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 31 Jan 1999 04:21:04 GMT From: paul@sub-mit-it.com Subject: hi- your web site Hi My name is Paul I am a professional webmaster who specializes in internet marketing.
