The Incredibles and Pixar

From Pixar's phone system:
"If the clock on your VCR is still blinking 12:00, press 0 and an operator will help you!"

From Gifted Conference Planners to Pixar:
To Whom It Probably Concerns:

I talked briefly with Amy in Brad Bird's office about
having him as a speaker/guest at one of our
conferences, and she recommended that I send a note to
you folks, first.

I am the coordinator of a series of conferences for
highly gifted children and teens, their families, and
the professionals who work with them. Having seen The
Incredibles and having talked with a variety of our
consituent families, the conclusion was very simple:

"He gets us!"

The question then becomes, "How does a poor starving
non-profit lure a high profile celebrity like Brad
Bird to come play with us?"

Please consider the question asked.

Sincerely,

Josh Shaine

G.C. Planners

In other news

I am sick (again). Was headachy and overheated last night. Had a fever of 101 this am. Cough seems to be back, if no tin full force, then strongly enough, at least.

*sigh*

Sorry to anybody I infected in the last day or so.

This should not impact my plans for tomorrow. (Read: I won't let it.)
