Graduate Student Biscuits

[Mike Oltmans <moltmans@>]

One year ago today I invited you all to my humble cardboard home for 
some thankful GSB'ing.  Well I have been evicted from my cardboard home. 
  I couldn't afford the rent, the termites consumed the walls that the 
cockroaches were living in, and the four inches of cardboard scrap dust 
gave me bronchitis.  But I'd still like to invite you back to my vacant 
lot in the 7th floor playroom.

In all, its been a good year once again surrounded by the friendly 
plaster walls of dear old 808.  And as I now have time to look back and 
reflect on last year's cardboard experiment I can say with a 90% 
straight face that it was fun.  And I also recall the hours spent bird 
watching one weekend with my good friends.  Those were some lovely birds 
and one funky nest.

Anyway, see you all at tonight's (yes WEDNESDAY's) very thankful (that 
this message is over)
