Hi, Clay!

Nice to hear from you again.

Well, last month, I saw news that BBI had switched from Rhino to Shout Factory to handle future MST3K releases. I've heard it speculated that this was due to Rhino's troubles with rights issues in the past.
Then, a few days ago, I sent an e-mail to BBI asking if they were planning anything special for the 20th anniversary year. (My specific suggestion was an updated, expanded DVD release of the old "MST Scrapbook" tape.) I got a reply from Barb Tebben to the effect that they were indeed planning on special stuff this year. She didn't mention anything definite, though. Beyond that, I'm not certain.

Oh, re: an Internet connection, does your local public library offer 'Net services?

: Anyway, a recent phone call from a friend in

:
: My Friend: Hey, man, have you heard any news
: about your favorite show?
:
: Me: News? What news? What have you heard?
: Tell me, dammit! TELL ME!!!
:
: My Friend: Er, I was just, uh, wondering
: whether you heard about some company buying
: the series and planning to release the whole
: thing on DVD.
:
: Me: What? Where'd you hear that?
:
: My Friend: I think I read it on Fark.com or
: someplace like that. I can't find it now
: because they do, like, 200 or 300
: "news" listings per day, and it
: was a few days ago.
:
: Me: And you're just calling to tell me this
: now?!?
:
: My Friend: Well, this is the first chance
: I've had...
:
: The rest of the conversation is, at best,
: uninteresting and nothing even remotely
: related to the subject at hand.
:
: At any rate, I thought I'd swing by here and
: see if you guys had seen anything about
: this. So...er...have you?
:
: All the best,
