Ugh!  Go eat some of Debbie's ex-lax fudge!  OTOH, it might forge a bond
between Barry and Macca if that happened ...

Subject: Shooting Stars!

Hi everyone,

Hope you all had a good Christmas! :o)  Did anyone see
"Shooting Stars" last night?!  I thought it was good
and Robin looked really good.  Although he did look a
little p*ssed off when Vic and Bob played the first
few seconds of "Please", they should've played the
chorus....but anyway!  And luckily Will Self chose
Anthea Turner for the last task in the box with the
"bull", she's a nice enough woman but a muppet all the
same!! LOL  We've got some good promo coming up for
"Please" over the next few weeks which is really cool!
 The Kumars should be interesting that's for sure!!!

Anyway have a great New Year's Eve if you're going out
and getting p*ssed! ;op Take care!!

Paul

Subject: For the Record .... 

Congratulations to Steve and Gloria ... as well as Barry and Linda ... wow!  
Who'd a thunk it?  So hard to believe ... seems like just yesterday we were 
looking at pictures of Steve and Ashley and the other Gibb children as they 
grew up.

I wish Barry, his immediate family and the entire Gibb clan the best as they 
begin this new "role" in their lives.  Of course the little girl's birth 
makes Robin and Maurice great-uncles ... not that they wouldn't be great 
anyway :)

And for the record ... Ashley and Terese got married on November 9th ... 
while Steve and Gloria tied the knot on November 7th.

I also read something that indicated a new Bee Gee album is on the way in 
2003 ... a few songs may have even been written and several demos made 
already.  We'll have to wait and see how the baby's birth speeds up ( or 
slows down ? ) the project.

Happy New Year Everyone !!!!

Janel

"If I remember, all of the things I have done ...
I'd remember, all the times I'd gone wrong."

Ah, bikini week... say no more!!! I have no idea what Elimidate is but say
the word bikini and I'm with you :)

Guessing from the title, something in the way of the dating game perhaps?

Yes, it's show business eh, whole magazines devoted to making up

hehehe
