Once again, I'm just typing for the lil feller, so I'll let him take it from here.

Dear Friends,

First I want to thank all of you who supported me in getting my very own picture page on the Mudcat Resources site. I especially want to thank bbc and David for giving their time and talents and space. Catspaw says that I represent something, but I know I'm just a little clay possum, but I'm a very happy one to be a part of Mudcat. I was trying to think of a way that I could help out, and then just last night.........

Jeri and Catspaw were bantering with Max on a thread and Max said it would cost a dollar to talk to him at the FSGW in DC in October. Catspaw said he'd pay $20. for a picture of Max blowing up my rearend. Well I got to thinking that maybe this was a way I could help. What about a group shot of all the 'Catters who attend the FSGW, with Max in front, giving me a little puff? Now I know that bbc will probably put it in the picture pages, but wouldn't you like YOUR OWN GLOSSY COPY? Catspaw can pass the hat in DC starting with his own $20., but what about all of you who won't be there? Maybe you could put a dollar or two in an envelope and Catspaw will send you your own copy and donate ALL you send to Mudcat. Max may not want to do it, but I will.....and if he agrees, there'll be a little extra money for this place that's given me my life and my name.

It's awful hard for a little clay possun to help out much, but maybe I can do this for all of you and the 'Cat. Thanks again for my picture page.

Uh, yeah......Well OK, I can arrange this I guess. The little guy's kinda' all fired up about it. In DC, I'll pass the hat, but for the rest of you, I'll be happy to work out the details if you want your own glossy copy of a big group of 'Catters with "Fearless Leader" huffin' on the possum.
