It's December and time for Christmas, but IF you can 
actually believe it, I feel more relaxed than I have
in many months time.

FINALLY! A time for slowing down from the excitement of 
hosting ADAMCON 09 and then keeping the ANN disks on track
every month.  AND some time to reflect on the past year. 
First before I forget or overlook it again, I want to 
express my thanks for being voted into the Gallery or
Honor this year.  As a lot of you may have seen in one of
the pictures that Jerry printed in the 463 newsletter, I
was standing there with kind of a odd look....or shocked
as the case may be.  Receiving the honor was truly a very
memorable part of MY year as well as ADAMCON 09.  I have 
thought about it often and intended to thank the community 
and then gotten busy with something else and forgotten. So
...........THANK YOU ALL!.........  Now we need to start
planning for ADAMCON 10 in florida AND turning our atten-
tion to next year's Gallery of Honor introductions.   

Hope you all had a great holiday season, lots of good food,
many presents from loved ones, safe travel wherever you 
traveled, and your fill of football games (IF they are your
"thing").  From the "winter wonderland" of Michigan, I wish
you all a very happy January.  Remember, only a good month
till the next holiday!   VALENTINE'S DAY!!!
