[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: Your RHF www page

[Leu, Donald]

I just peeked in a mirror to check.  Yep.  Norm was not quite accurate with my characterization.  Still, it made my heart flutter there for a moment, recalling much earlier days.  :-)

Be well, everyone!  You are in wonderful hands.


Cheers,

Don

saddens. But if it is spent for others, it enriches and beautifies."

Well scouts...  first let's thank the multi-talented and ever so studly Dr. Leu for the outstanding job he did as your Historian across the past few years.  Indeed, he did wonders with the www pages. Thanks Captain Don.

But now scouts, I've stepped into that role of RHF Historian, and you know that your Uncle Norm is like that graduate student that will never let you alone...yep... I'm somewhere on the continuum between groupie and stalker. You have all had one or two of them. In fact, Crazed Lindy, my personal gift from graduate student hell, may be peering in one of my window right now.

Hence, let me remind you that we would be ever so pleased if you would go to your RHF www page and make sure that it is up to date.  The edit process is rather simple...if fact even a dyed in the wool Luddite as myself can handle such a task.

But today we have a special offer for you. Yes, today (and for the next 13 weeks), if you simply send me a photo to put up (jpeg attachment), a vita (pdf), a biographical statement (pdf), a favorite piece of scholarship (pdf), any new contact information, etc. I'll go into your page and upload everything for you.

I can hear you saying now...can this be true? What a deal, and it is good for 13 weeks. This offer is ever so sweet! So Act Now!

Of course, if you do not follow up on our request, my only option is to give Crazy Lindy your contact information. You know that next to me you are her greatest hero.

Cheers

Norm
