Wednesday I made the 3.5 hour drive to see Alice Cooper. A great show,
as usual, and got to attend the meet and greet afterwards. Alice greeted me by name, we talked for a few minutes and he signed several items for me. He signed the photo of him and I together from last year where I am choking him "Craig, You're killing me! Alice Cooper". He also signed a photo I had taken at the show last year as well as sveral LP covers. I had several variations of the Love It To Death cover and he said "You have the thumb cover...that's rare." He circled the thumb and signed. He would switch pens when asked between silver and blue. As always a great experience. Yesterday I received two signed photos from the star of MANY Tarzan films, Cheeta the Chimp. ONe a portrait and the other with Weismuller as Tarzan. Got it via the website after I ordered one of his acrylic "apestract" paintings for my wife, who is an animal rights gal and Tarzan fan, for Christmas. Here's the website if you are interested: http://www.cheetathechimp.org/ Needless to say the photos weren't personalized. Good Luck, Craig |

Or at the very least if he does a reality show or something, you should be invited to at least one episode. |

Pretty Darn Good when a celeb/artist greets you by name!
That's kinda like when Ben Jones (aka Cooter) sees me at the Hazzard outings. He doesn't remember the name but he knows the face, and knows I've been coming to his outings since July 2000! |

Amazing, Mr. Black-
Good thing school starts back tomorrow, and we'll get rid of 80% of the trolls. Any new 'graphs on your end? |

Yes, the trolls will be less active and collecting should pick up a bit. I want to thank Mr. Black and al for signing the petition. It's not going good. I did this yesterday afternoon and only 13 people signed (and three of them my family). Anyway, I started it because people were whining about the epilogue (on another newsgroup) and only a couple from there signed it! Only the autograph friends seemed to sign. simply amazing that people will whine and not be proactive! anyhow, for those who want to help, I will send out more emails this week to fans of other sites and my own address book calling for favors. Please take a moment and support Harry Potter fans everywhere by signing the petition he (it's for Jo to publish the original epilogue she wrote and not that brief; half-ass version we got that her publishers made her do): http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/D...gue/index.html any help would be appreciated. Speaking of Harry Potter and autographs, I did get a few recently! Thanks to Dax for his help at LFCC I got 8 new ones including Emily Dale from Harry Potter. Alas, Natalia Teena and Apple Brook canceled. The rest of my items were all Star Wars of course! I did post the one Scooby Doo graph person on here I got ttm the other day. Cooler weather is here and I am in the mood to do graphs a little more. some will be sent out soon. |
