868.0. "Not C-P - just a request from a fellow fan" by TNPUBS::PAINTER (Planet Crayon) Wed Mar 02 1994 17:41

    
    I have a favor to ask.  If anyone lives in the UK and would like to
    help out, I would absolutely *love* to get hold of a UK magazine with 
    a substantial interview/coverage of Torvill and Dean's Olympic 
    performance.  I'm one of their many avid fans here in the US, and since
    they skate for the UK, there isn't much in the magazines here (though
    I did get the TV Guide and have read the LIFE magazine article on
    them here.)
    
    I'm happy to reimburse expenses, either by check or a trade.  If you
    would be interested in doing this, please contact me offline.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Cindy

    I became a fan of Isabelle Brasseur (sp) during the Olympics.  I didn't
    even care if she could skate!! ;-}

868.2she *is* cute!TNPUBS::PAINTERPlanet CrayonWed Mar 02 1994 20:368
    
    Now Richard...(;^)
    
    Ah, but she has a boyfriend!  One of the French skiers perhaps?
    
    However, I have a single neighbor that looks somewhat like her...

    Alas, I know our paths will never cross.  And as you know, I'm quite
    attached to the woman I married.
    
    But Gawd, can that Isabelle wink!
    
    Peace,
    Richard

    	Nancy, I am sure that you are aware that anything that you get out
    	of the UK will be written in *English*.
    
    	You may need to call on *experts* in exgesis to make sense of it!
    
    	:-) 20x
    
    	Greetings, Derek.

    Smiles back... but were you talking to me?

    Derek,
    
    	Another case of mistaken identity.  Here's how to tell the
    difference.
    
    	Nancy has curly hair and freckles.
    
    	Cindy (who wrote .0) has blonde, shortish hair.
    
    Salaam,
    Richard

    How do you know I have freckles... JIMBO!  Richard's been spying on
    me... especially since all my freckles are covered most of the time!!!

    Derek,
    
    I think you got the wrong person...
    
    I'm not at all involved in the exegesis discussion beyond asking
    (innocently, of course) if it's a video game.  But then I remembered -
    that's Sega Genesis, or however it's spelt.  (;^}

868.9Always look on the bright side of life...VNABRW::BUTTONAnother day older and deeper in debtFri Mar 04 1994 07:0316
    	Once again I comitted an act of mistaken identity. I was of course
    	speaking to Cindy (with a "side-swipe" at the exegesis discussion
    	despite her non-participation in same). Senility strikes again!!
    
    	However, I do not -- retrospectively -- regret this particular
    	slip-up. I have, after all, gained:
    		- 20 smiles from Nancy (mine returned) which -- considering
    		  our differing theological positions -- is something to
    		  treasure.
       		- descriptions of two of my fellow CP-ers.  Since I do not
    		  work with any other CP participant, it is a great moment
    		  for me to move this small step closer to y'all.
    
    	Greetings, Derek.

	Cindy,

	I'll try to be on the lookout when visiting the newsagents.

	Phil.

    Bless you, Phil!  0(;^)  Even clipped newspaper articles would be
    welcome.  My mailstop is LKG2-2/N1.  
    
    I was on my way to a week at a yoga retreat during the time the
    Original Ice Dance competition was televised here, so I missed that
    one altogether.  Fortunately though, a friend taped it, and I finally
    got to that tape last night.  *Awesome!*  They should have won the
    gold.  
    
    I was heartened when they were interviewed at the closing ceremonies 
    here, and they said that they got a tremendous amount of support from 
    people in the US - Christopher held up his hands to indicate the amount 
    of faxes of support they had received from the US, and it was about 
    8-10 inches worth.
