Collage 097               H u m o u r N e t                    1995

Coming to you as Collage 97, it's the bi-weekly installment of
Randy Cassingham's "This is True." For the HumourNet newcomers,
"TRUE" is distributed via HumourNet with permission from Randy.
(That might be short-lived, however--we've grown since Randy
granted the permission, and I will be checking with him this
week to ensure that he still approves of this arrangement. I will
be sure to keep you posted on the results, of course.)

Finally, I will be away for most of July, which means that the
centennial collage will most likely be distributed in August.
Either way, you'll not be hearing much from HumourNet during July
(but keep the material coming, and I'll catch up when I return).

Meanwhile ... enjoy Collage 97 (it's well worth the read ... Randy
has really done an *extra* good job with some of these) and have a
great July!

NOTE: The "This is True" column (also briefly called "This Just In")
was, for a short time, carried on HumourNet *with permission* from
author Randy Cassingham. However, that permission did not extend to
the archived Collages on the 'Net. Thus, Randy's material does not
appear here in the HumourNet archives.

or getting copies of his books (compilations of his column -- also
highly recommended), then send a blank e-mail to TrueInfo@freecom.com,
