Hi Jan + All!
There is only Kay's guess remaining in the pipe(*).
Now did the <<guessing game>> fade away silently or is
it only out of sight?

In the latter I wouldn't hesitate to guess anew.

(*) Okay then: Duggy's "Meatballs" short
before the sun goes Supernova.

I tried. Couldn't get to it. I take it that this is a pool of some
sort?

Found it. Okay. Makes sense now.

Stefan, I've known Joe in passing for 22 years. I gave up long ago
trying to figure out what he's gonna do next.

I don't see a tv series. I do see an Oscar nom, possibly a win. And
possibly a script for Avengers. That last one is iffy, though.

It's a game.  Some people find it pleasant to pass the time between JMS=20
projects trying to guess what he might do next, and when.  And Jan, uber-=

Just to play along, and add a little fuel to the fire....

There are three non-comics, non-B5 projects that are signed, sealed
and contracted for that have not yet been announced.

One of them is the least likely thing anyone could possibly associate
with me.

One of them will come as a surprise to some but not to others.

One of them is a return to form.

There is a fourth project which is two meetings away from being
concluded.  If this one happens, I will die a happy man.
