OK fine. No pictures. But 8x10s of Alphagene are still available from the Official Dreamy Hunk Alphagene Fan Club (as advertised in _Bop!_) * * * If I wanted smoke blown up my ass, I’d be at home with a pack of cigarettes and a short length of hose. ---

I’ll be there–though it’s a tough work-week, so I might be a little late. Cap’n, you better show up, cold or not–and if I’m sneezing the next day, you’re all free to make any assumptions ya want . . . CM, I hope you can make it; I won’t be eating or drinking either, so you’ll have company. ---

Sorry, I have a prior engagement and will not be able to attend. I will raise a vodka gimlet in your honor, though. You folks have a great time. * * * “Some people are worried about the difference between right and wrong. I’m worried about the difference between wrong and fun.” ~P.J. O’Rourke~ ---

Unk, you drove four hours to get to Chicago, you can’t drive a lousy twelve to get to New York? Oh, well, I suppose we’ll have fun anyway. Looking forward to it, gang. Alpha, save one of the beach shots for me, okay? * * * Uke ---

I really hope I can make it, to. I have a job interview downtown that starts at 4, and I have a Chanukah party later; I certainly will try to squeeze it in…I’d love to meet you guys. Chaim Mattis Keller ---

Proceed at one’s own risk. Isn’t that a little long to have a party? I’m not exactly in Olympic pub crawling shape anymore, but what the heck, 72 hours, I’m game . . . Yeah, I should be finishing my packing, but I wanted to make sure I had the name of this joint written down somewhere. Now everybody sing: _Gotta get my old tuxedo pressed, Gotta sew a button on my vest, 'Cause tonight I got to look my best Tuba’s back in town . . . ._ your humble TubaDiva PS I’ll still be around online, so don’t think school’s out or anything. ---

How about this one: You can bring ham or crackers and jam But don’t bring Tuba! Tuba gets blue and goes coo-coo Like the clock upon the shelf! She’s the kind of smarty, breaks up every party! Hullaballooba, Don’t bring Tuba– I’ll bring her myself! ---
