I noticed a major breach of your rules by one of our EDA's. On her behalf I ask you to overlook her mistake because she adds so much "special-ness" to the list. She actually coined the word, never thinking it would be used to describe her. I'm talking about Amy. The rule she broke was changing her last name at a very critical time. You may have been confused when she signed off with the name Amy Gratitude. I can help you with the mystery. She included gratitude, 30 very sincere times. She was only trying to give you one gratitude for every day of the month. She must have added the last on to her name, just in case the month has 31 days. If that isn't convincing enough, let me give you somemore supporting evidence. You will recall, she was the one that shared her wonderful time at JS by bringing her mother. She is also the same person that shared with us the roots to her screenname. It is a dedication to her father she very much loved. She is also the same Amy that claims Oklahoma City as her birthplace, but has adapted to Jersey as if a native. Only a fearless Jersey native would have stood up to the lowlifes on the train the way she did. She stood up on behalf of womens rights, no, human rights, in a way that made all of us EDA's proud. To me she is a little bit Mother Teresa and a little bit Madonna. She is a fun loving person with a heart of gold. People that were with her at the NH concert described her as a "natural beauty", but I think they were describing more than just her appearance. So Mike, there should be no confusion if you come across Amy with the new last name. She is the same person that adds so much "special-ness" to this list.

Now this is about two months after I quit the job. And while she's there, she's reaading the newspaper (The wonderful San Diego Union Tribune) when she runs across an article by local music columnist George Varga. And of course it's about Jewel (or there would be a NJC disclaimer somewhere in there), so she pulls that section of the paper and brings it back for me. Nice little article, with the usual balcony promo shot. (Where is that, BTW? It looks like Hillcrest with Balboa Park in the background, but it has been awhile.) And after she tells me about this, promising to bring it in sometime, the next time I wander in and check my volunteer box, I find this article AND the picture from People. Both with my name on it. I hadn't realized my obsession had been quite so obvious. But it is nice to have people think of me on vacation...even if it does get a bit creepy at times.

I was trying to figure that out myself, without causing alot of extra work on my side, and it just hit me now. Starting tonight, every leaf request I receive I will reply to immediately. I'm NOT gonna type anything, just hit the "reply" button and send it right back to you as is. That will be your "receipt". Leaf requests that I have already received I will reply to tonight in the same manner (to get "caught up", in other words) Once I am caught up, I will post that fact to the list. From that point on, you should receive a "receipt" reply within 24 hours of your EMAILing me with a leaf request. NOTE - this "receipt" reply will not be a notification of who your branch assignment is, that will come later. If your leaf request is "wrong", I will also reply but indicate that fact in the SUBJECT of the reply I send to you. Mike P.S.
