I'm hoping that this isn't true....

HASIL ADKINS HAS PASSED AWAY -April 26 2005

Yep, That's right... Hasil is gone... I received a call from a close friend of Hasil tonight... I think I knew it before he told me... Some of you may know that Hasil was in an accident some time last week...Doctors said he was OK...I had been trying to reach him to see if he was alright and to wish him well... Each time all I was able to reach was his answering machine... More news will be posted as it comes"

Hello Friend,
Can't we all use a bit of help now and then? Well, Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Co. is no different (okay, so maybe we're just a little different) and so, this Thursday, April 28th, we'll be joined on the stage of Otto's Shrunken Head by our returning special guest, Miss Heather Allison. Heather's helping -- won't you?

Sincerely,
Michael
