(a leak from the judges' tent) Folks, I am truly surprised and almost speechless at getting the Emjay as Best All-Around List Member. Thank you, whoever of you out there who hold that opinion. It came as a particular surprise to me because I haven't been very activ e on the list for a couple of months now, it seems. It's been a difficult couple of mont hs. No need for details...remember I just quit my job. Is that an indication of how difficult life has been? :) So anyway, thanks again. And congrats to all the o ther winners who have been identified so far. I'm waiting breathlessly to see who wins the curmudgeon prize, Gene the Grumpy Old Man or Anthony with stilettos hidden all over his body. May the worst man win. :) J. ------------------------------------------ You start by writing to live. You end by writing so as not to die. Carlos Fuentes, "How I Started to Write"
