Oboy....I can't *wait* to see what that one morphs into! <g>  Glad you're on
the mend and hope any procedures still to be done are minor and painfree, Joe.

Did you know Amazon has a page up for 'Straczynski Unplugged'?  Check out..

...and if you have *any* idea what's supposed to be depicted on the cover,
could you let us know?  It looks like somebody tried to electrocute Buddy and
then magnified the pieces-parts.

Yay!  How goes the rest of your project with the feral cats?

Looking forward to it-have been for months now!  Of course, I'll get spoiled by
having a new JMS story so regularly so you'd better get cracking on those new
projects please?

Any chance you can give us more info on definite  titles and short blurbs for
each?  Should we all get physicals before this starts to make sure our hearts
can stand it?

Tell 'em that your fans want to *subscribe* to your titles, not have to search
high and low for them, okay?

Thanks!

No, I didn't know they'd already begun taking orders on that one.

I think it's my lower intestinal tract after finishing Jeremiah year 2.

> How goes the rest of your project with the feral cats?

All the kittens have found homes, and the remaining adults have all been spayed
and neutered and are living comfortably in the back yard.

At this point, with the show's debut so near, best to just let the show speak
for itself.  But it's pretty cool, I have to say.
