Mike,

I'll make a public apology.

I wanted to jump right in and do another panel after the "On the Streets of Letterville" swap. I volunteered to make a panel for you to help close the first swap. I promised to finish the panel by the end of November. I am about half finished. I will find a way to solve the problems the cold weather has presented.

Sorry for the delay Mike.

Dave

OK, public apology, to Bob Kaschak...I promised your panel "by Christmas"....no problem!

Well, it's been done for a week or more, def. "Dry", I wanted to get a digital pic of it before shipping, then Christmas shipping glut, I'll send it out end of Dec.

Merry Christmas, Bob

Hey - I resemble some of those remarks...

Uh, how many Mike Langueins are in L'Ville ? Why ME alla time?
I started a surprise project panel 2 years ago for somebody here and it's in such poor shape right now I'll have to start it over. See how karma works against ya? Also I'm several weeks past deadline on wood grain projects for paying customers - so if anybody thinks they owe me a panel -- take your time - - if it never happens, it's all I've got coming.

No wonder I never got one during the Whynott episode. Huh. How does this play in Peoria, anyway?

Mikey,

Maybe it's because your panels are worth the wait!

Pat & Ruth... you still will be recieving a panel from me, but I was careful not to make a promise as to completion date. With the upcoming Swap 2004 (whatever it's called) I will try an accelerate the process after christmas!

I'll bet you are familiar with the origin of the "Will it play in Peoria?" question Mike.
Yes?

Posted by Mike Languein (Member # 319) on :

You just LOVE to tease me, dontcha Dave!

Origin, no, other than the reference to small town midwest America back in the days of Vaudeville = just because a play or routine gets a good revue or turnout in a big city doesn't mean the down-home folks will pay to see it. It may be "too French" (or too sophisticated). There is a good story about "The Royal Nonesuch" in one of the Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn books, where these two wily rascals attempt to put one over on the local rubes in a small town along the river...somewhere beneath the plot structure of HeeHaw, but they get paid. Once.

You've got my curiosity up - how did Peoria gain the fame?

Posted by dave parr (Member # 3868) on :

moi, ...tease you? Nope! I respect your intellect. Figured you knew the answer, and you did.
