I just got my package from Michael. I scanned his message to the board and you'll find it in the Lobby.
I will scan the rest of the letter and the pictures, but first I will need to eat dinner.

What a coinscidence!!!! I got my package from him today, too! I didn't get a letter, though, but I told him he could keep the pic I made, (you know the one) I photoshoped with him and Terry and he did keep it! My gift to him! I'm glad he loved it enough to keep it! ;D ;D ;D I'm gonna post the pics in a minute in the Fan mail thread! I mentioned the board by the way!

In the letter to the board he mentioned he was a but of a luddite and someone asked what it meant. I didn't have a clue so I looked it up.
Luddite:
One who opposes technical or technological change.
Lol, I'm a Technology teacher, I could teach him a thing or two!

Well, that's kind of another charming thing about him- he's one of those old fashioned folks more comfortable talking to people in person, being among people in person, and communicating in the more personal fashion of writing actual letters[luckily for many here]Almost a rare thing in the e-world: not trashing those of us who are Internet people, just pointing out how Michael still likes those old ways of being around and communicating with people.

Here are the scans of the letter. I wrote him a 2 page letter. I had to scan 3 pages, because it contains his message to us, which he placed on the back of pg. 2. I am going to ask all of you who want to save this letter for yourselves to not post it anywhere where anyone can copy it. In other words, keep it on your hard drive, do not place it on flicker, photobucket, etc. I am posting the pictures he autographed as well, those you may place in your flicker or photobucket accounts, as I am placing them in his photo gallery.

I asked him to sign a small and large version of this wallpaper that I made. I am going to have the small one framed and hang it up in my office at work. I will only scan one of them (the small one, as the large one is 11X14).
