Team supporter shirts
=====================

Thank you to everyone who purchased a U.S. Team shirt. We are almost
out of the 100 that we had to sell. We will be making a second run
of shirts in the second week of July. The original shirts are a natural
cotton color with a pocket on the front and six color artwork on the back.
There will be several variations available on the second run.
These include but are not limited to: Natural or white, short or long
sleeve, pocket or without, artwork on front or back. There will be
hats available as well, they will be
very similar to the embroidered Khaki/Ivy hats of the '97 team. This will be
a custom run so I need to know what the demand is. Please contact Blake
Jensen with style and size details.

Hats and short sleeve shirts are $15.00 and long sleeve shirts are $20.00.
Please respond by July 3.

Thank you

Blake Jensen

11 PM Weather Report
=======================

Author : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

A piece in my local San Gabariel Valley News today talks about the weather in
Prague, Czech Republic. A buxom woman or a muscular young man goes on camera
stark naked. He or she then puts on clothing piece by piece as the weather
forcast is read. The amount of clothing is consistent with the weather. TV
Nova's ratings have gone through the ceiling since they added the nudity.

Something for you guys to check out with friends in Prague.

PalmPilot Watch
===============

In browsing the Internet, looking at various high-tech toys I
arrived at buy.com. This place has the best prices I have seen
for PalmPilots - the Palm III goes for $154 and I think the IIIx
for $241. Sounds too good to be true.
