When my family went to see Fruvous at the BL (we live in Seattle -- not exactly within walking range of the box office) we called ahead and sent a money order for the cost of the tickets. Then we picked them up at will-call that night. It worked fine for us, so give it a shot........ - - jenn ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Oct 1998 00:45:25 GMT From: "Adam Hartfield" Subject: Re: February Warm Up >FISHSTICKS! ...have gotta be tossed? - --Adam adamh@javanet.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Oct 1998 01:17:16 GMT From: nicole.the.wonder.nerd.is@ana.ng.at.tmbg.org (Nicole the Wonder Nerd) Subject: Re: February Warm Up On Thu, 22 Oct 1998 17:49:21 -0500, the sky opened up and Chad Maloney spake thusly: >Have you ever heard a song about fishsticks?

Hi gang -- I have an Internet-impaired female friend who asked me to check into the possibility of sharing a hotel room with a fellow Frufan for Frucon, any and all nights. Would any interested parties be kind enough to e-mail me off-list so I can play Henry Kissinger and possibly get her together with somebody and cut some costs?

THAT is a very good point, A.J.--I've seen a few newsgroups/mailing lists/etc. and they have NEVER been as pleasantly self-disciplined.
