hi everyone
hope you are doing well, things here are fine.

however I was disturbed to find lots of violence in the headlines today. folks in the reading zone may be interested to know that a new school is opening locally to help make these kinds of headlines go away.

(not the "away" that headlines go to when censors decide they are inconvenient, but a much more tangible and meaningful and healing "away".)

the school is free and qualified scholars can get free school supplies. and if you think you might like to teach there, your living expenses may decrease dramatically.

I will let you know more about this school as time and circumstances permit, and invite you now to consider what you are going to do with the rest of your 12-31-07.

rumor has it that a famous celebrity has been lured into considering making a guest appearance at the Shouseki gala planned for this evening. I am not able to give you many details beyond that but hope you will plan on joining the gala, either in person or in spirit.

this famous celebrity will read the answers to some Trail of No Tears Jokes Etc. to entertain guests at the party and in the listening zone. if you are not able to join us at this event, and your audio equipment does not pick up Katuah National Radio, I hope you will not be too blue because the answers to the Trail of No Tears Jokes Etc. are designed to find and amuse you regardless of your location and your listening and/or reading abilities.

so, if you are in a situation where you are cut off from most or all of your Shouseki pals please don't worry, we are working on a solution.

bye, thanks for reading and have a wonderful day.
