North of 60 - fabulous website
Author: Laurie, Oct/1/2001 13:05:48
Hi I know this is kind of off topic but some MG fans were also big fans
of CBC Canada's
fabulous North of 60 series that ended in 1998.
There's a new North of 60 movie airing tonight, they sent me the link to
their new website"
www.Northof60.net
Even if you've never seen North of 60, check out the website. it has to
be the most visually
gorgeous website I have ever seen.
My friend who knows a little about web design thinks they used a professsional
web design
software called Dreamweaver. it's amazing check it out!!
Laurie
Thankyou Laurie - Marlene, Oct/2/2001 07:38:35
I was a faithful viewer of North of 60! I use to
see it on Trio. I checked out the web site. It was
fantastic! Hope the two movies that Tina got the
awards for will be on Trio at some time. Can't get
the other TV Station down here!
Thanks Again,Laurie!
Marlene
Thanks, Laurie - Carol, Oct/3/2001 23:48:21
Nice website.
Thankyou,Cheryl!

I will get in on that report about the Mohawk on
Indian Country Today.I haven't been to that web site
for a while---Thankyou!
I knew a fellow once from the Mickelshoot Rez. At
least his father was from there. I bet that was a
great Pow Wow.
Cheryl,I think you and I could be concidered typical
Americans!TEEHEE! I'm Nipmuck Indian(Massachusetts),
German/Irish and Scottish. Wish I could remember
that one line in "Billy Jack" about being Indian!
Anyway, sometimes being Indian is in the soul and I
for one, am very glad and proud of that fact!
Hello again Marlene - Cheryl, Nov/3/2001 05:03:54
I never did consider myself a typical American. I was wondering if you
could elaborate
on being Indian in the soul. As far as myself I find that I exhibit characteristics
that
definitely reflect my my multi-cultural background. Especially in music
and dance. I do
like Scottish and Irish music and dance, but I definitely prefer Native
American music,
gospel, rock and roll, world-music, actually I just like an variety of
music, namely most
of the time it has to have a good beat. I love Native American dancing.
I have loved to
dance to a variety of music ever since I was a kid, mostly at home just
for the fun of it.
My mom was a cheerleader, and my mom, aunt, sister, and I at one time or
another have
all sung in choirs. I love music. When I was growing up we didn't have
a tv in every room
in the house, but a radio, or stereo. Music was on all the time. My mom
usually even had
a radio on every time that she, my sister, and I were outdoors in the summer
time.
Otherwise my sister would have her radio on and so did I every day.
Hi Cheryl - Marlene, Nov/4/2001 07:06:42
Sorry it took a bit long to get back to you!
Please excuse the term "Typical American" The
expression came from my childhood days in
Massachusetts where being part Indian or being part
anything besides direct European heritage was not
cool. There was a lot of predjudice against Indians
in those days. I'm so happy that as the years went
by they got rid of this biggotry. The last time I
visited there, one could go in to a shop or book
store and find any number of books on Indian
Heritage of MA. This was unheard of in my childhood.
I believe this change came about because after three
generations of inter-marriage between people of
different European ancestory,the term part-Indian is
at last cool.
My Dad raised me during my toddler years and he
taught me about the relationship between man and
mother earth and father sky. He taught me all he
knew about his Indian ancestory. I also learned to
love and respect my Irish background. On my mother's side
side there is Scottish blood and I have always loved
the bagpipes and Scottish dancing.
Yes,Cheryl,I to love music and dancing. I've done a lot of
lot of it in my day. Like our Michael, I don't let a
day go by without music.
I believe any person who believes in freedom, love
of nature,country and fellow man without
reservations due to race,color or creed is Indian in
the soul.
I believe the key word is "freedom" and right now we
Americans with our brothers and sisters in other
countries are together in fighting like hell to hold
to it!
Glad to have the freedom to express how I feel and
am proud of my Cherokee blood. -
Cheryl Grzan, Mar/12/2002 23:06:54
Marlene, Thanks for elaborating on what you meant by being Indian in the
soul and I am glad that there is more acceptance where you were from of
people that are part Indian. I myself found out fairly recently that although
my mom and my aunt always talked about my grandfather being part
Cherokee, my aunt fairly recently found out that there was Cherokee blood
from my grandmother (on my mother's side). My aunt told me that when she
was growing up and there was something very important discussed by the
grownups, she was shooed away. So my aunt didn't find out until long after
my grandmother died.
HOLIDAY!
Author: Marlene, Oct/8/2001 13:52:02
Here in South Dakota, we celebrate NATIVE AMERICAN
DAY. I am wishing Michael and all his fans around
the world, a very happy day!
Marlene
Happy Thanksgiving! - Carol, Oct/8/2001 23:27:49
To our Canadian neighbors.
Your Right Carol! - Marlene, Oct/8/2001 23:33:37
I forgot Canadian Thanksgiving!
Hope we all had a great day!

Marlene -- wish I'd known. I'd have raised a glass ...
Anyway, hope everyone had a great day.

fave recipes
Hi all,
Marnie just cannot sit on her laurels....no sirreee! *g* Always working
hard on all things
Greyland...(which is why she always wins the Annual Greyland "At-ta Girl"
Award!! *g*)...
And all that hard work made her hungry, so she got all our favourite Greyland
recipes
together on one page...plus the recipes from Michael's guest appearance
on "Table for Two"!!
Check it all out by clicking on the "Greyland fave recipes" link above!
Or go to:

Sonja (Trying to come to terms with the image of Marnie's attempts to literally
sit down on
her "laurels"!)
Sitting ... on ... laurels - Zan, Oct/11/2001 03:16:22
My, and isn't she cute, too !! Of course Michaeal's
response to additional guests (with his scary face on)
put a kink in my style, but smiling as always, I
vanish into the mists ...
So, so sorry ...
Author: Zan , Oct/11/2001 03:59:22
Can I return to ya'll ? Know I've been away for
months and it will take me some time to get up to
speed re postings and things, but find that I've missed
you all very much. (Oh -- and greetings to you new
people. Nice to meet more supporters of Michael !!)
See, first the thesis absorbed my time 100% (being
pressured by Uni. to complete the first draft by end of year
and I'm only half finished now !!); then I had to shift
house suddenly (owner of old place sold it out from under
us -- but the new house is ten times better, anyway),
which meant packing and cleaning at one end and unpacking
and cleaning at the other end ... not to mention trying
to settle in ... somehow; been sick a lot lately with
viruses you all probably had last winter in your
hemisphere; and then ... Well, enough's enough !!
AND I was sorry to miss the Chatroom last weekend. :-{
Had my alarm set and all, but wasn't my usual perky
self at 3 a.m. In fact, slept straight through the
blinking thing. Julian had to turn it off and wasn't
impressed AT ALL !! Am looking forward to next month,
though.
At the moment am planning a birthday/housewarming party
(for the twentieth of this month even though my
birthday isn't until next month -- which is always
too close to Christmas to be convenient for most people).
Was going to give it a miss this year, but my daughter
and quite a few friends happen to like my soirees, so
am rolling out the red carpet and boarding the dogs
for the evening. Wish you all could be here !! Feel
closer to most of you than I do many of the folks
coming (and what does THAT say about me? sigh. I'm
just a sad, sad person, I guess. *g*)
Marlene -- your stories are wonderful as usual !! Will
give them the attention they deserve in the next few
days.
Carol -- how's Florida ? You know, I really miss
the live oak trees with Spanish Moss. sigh. How I
miss the South ...
Marnie -- your talent is just amazing. How can one
person contain so much ??!!
Sonja -- awaiting your visit with baited breath. (Be
ready to roast here. Spring is not a cool even in Oz,
as you may remember !!)
How's life, Nellie ?
Welcome Back Zan! - Marlene, Oct/11/2001 05:18:14
Sure did miss you,pal!
Glad the new house is pleasing to you. Don't work
too hard with it! Please take care of yourself.
Looked all over for you, even went to Greyland.TEE
HEE!
Hope the party is a big success!
Your friend,
Marlene
Yeah.....welcome back!!!!!!!! - Sonja, Oct/11/2001 05:30:35
Well good to see you emerging from all that paper work to say 'Hi'! You
do know that
once a Greylander ALWAYS a Greylander *g*...you don't get rid of us that
easily!
I ALSO missed chat last Saturday so don't you feel too bad...I too was
simply
exhausted. No matter...there's next month....then the NEXT month will be
Dec 1...we
gonna log on together from YOUR place?? *g*
Now get that thesis of yours done with...heavens its taking precious Greyland
time
away!! LOL!
Good to have ya back Zan - Nellie, Oct/12/2001 03:07:51
Not much new with me.
Just watching S.o.B. (South of Border)novelas and
soccer games and an occasional MG video.
l've got to try some of these recipes, have you seen
them?
MG's commercial in Japan. guess we
don't have any fans in Japan on here.
Yes l can picture it now-all of us asking that
fan to tape the commercial.haha
Again, welcome home!!!

It seems an age since I last posted on this board.
Sorry I've been away for a while in Italy with my husband.
Since we have been home we have lost our oldest Son.
Sorry to come back with such bad news but I wanted to share it
it with you all.
Shalom, Ruth
Re: Hi - Sonja, Oct/17/2001 04:54:26
Oh Ruth!!! I'm so, so sorry! I'll be emailing you today, and we can talk.
God comfort you

Sonja, thanks for the hug,it helped a lot.
Shalom, Ruth
You have my deepest sympathy, Ruth. - Carol, Oct/17/2001 23:11:03
I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. I think the worst
thing that can happen to anyone is to endure the death of
ones own children even if they are grown.
My prayers are with you.
I'm Sorry! - Marlene, Oct/18/2001 04:48:58
Ruth,
I know you must have gotten my EMAIL to you by now.
May your heart be lightened a little by the warm
condolences of your friends.

Hi guys!
I'm Dale,a regular of the studigroup;But also a BIG MG fan as well.
I was wondering,does anyone know when MG's website will be finished?
And can folks in the US get APTN or any Canadian cable?Canada does MUCH
better at
showcasing NA talent than here in the US.
Hi Dale! - Marlene, Nov/4/2001 07:27:41
Welcome! I agree with you about Canada doing a
great job in showcasting NA talent. I can't get
APTN although others in the US can.
I can get TRIO on my TV. I enjoyed North of 60 with
award winning Tina Keepers and all the other fine
NA actors and actresses.
At least they are showing some of Michael's films
again this Fall on Lifetime and Hallmark channels.
Re:Marlene - dale, Nov/5/2001 00:07:47
Thanks for replying;I'll be moving soon and PRAY that I can get APTN and
I will
definitely get cable...a friend video taped No.of 60 for me;I saw 2
episodes-EXCELLENT!!! But I got salad dressing on my video and it ruined
it-just
my luck.
Michael is SOOO special...not just a pretty face;we need more folks who
just dont
look good but CAN ACT!!! I feel the same way about Mr.Studi also.
Welcome - Sonja, Nov/5/2001 06:01:57
Hi there Dale....welcome to our board and "Tea Party"
To answer your question about MG websites...well they are always being
updated but
they are certainly not "unfinished"!! There is plenty to see! If you click
on the link
"MG links" above this message you will go to a page with a link to just
about every
reference to Michael Greyeyes on the web!
Enjoy!
Marlene...pass the Trocks, and top up my tea cup there would you please?
I've been
'dry' too long! Aaaagh, thanks!!! :)
Hi Sonja - Marlene, Nov/5/2001 06:41:29
Here you go! I'm filling your tea cup and please
have a blueberry muffin. Hmmm! they are good! Here's
Nellie and she's brought Paco with her. So here we
go for a great tea party!
to coventry - Marnie, Nov/5/2001 07:44:30
Hi Dale, welcome to the board hope you have fun here. Did you mean the
OS,
they are doing some refurbishment and streamlining but all their info is
still
there. They are just trying to give us a new look, I think.
Marlene, don't know if Sonja deserves a cuppa...she forgot all about Sat
Chat. Mind you I was rather distracted too ...as one of my accounts was
being hacked, so I didn't hang around long while I went to try to get it
sorted out. I need the cuppa ...so pass it here!!*g*
Marnie (a wee bit stressed)
OK Sonja....we forgive ya...you get the teabag after I've used it.*g*
THANKS FOR THE WELCOME - dale, Nov/5/2001 16:56:59
I'm gonna have LOTSA FUN here!!!
Gee! Marnie! - Marlene, Nov/6/2001 06:06:32
Glad you forgave Sonja about the Chat!
DALE, HAVE A BLUEBERRY MUFFIN and have a seat here
next to----I know you recognize him--Michael and
here's Nancy next to Paco.
I don't know how our Michael heard about your
account,Marnie, but he's here to help if he can.
Also, we're here to wish Paco good luck at winning
his soccer game Sunday. (Paco grins!)
Isn't it wonderful here,Dale? Sonja has her fire
all warm and cozy. These big chairs are great,Marnie
I understand you gave them to Sonja as a gift last
Christmas.
By the way,I'll pour the Greyeyes Tea this afternoon
and I have samples of Christmas teas---"Sugar Plum"
and "Spiced Holiday Berries" Of course nothing can
top our Earl Greyeyes Tea. And nothing can top our
group here before the fire!----CHEERS!
Eh? Marlene---and Hi Dale - Nellie, Nov/6/2001 18:06:45
First of all, Hi everyone. Welcome Dale!
What's Nancy doing next to Paco??
Can't wait to taste that cup of tea.
Sorry l missed the Chat, Marnie.
Who's in charge of bringing in the logs
for the fire??
For Dale re. OS - Laurie, Nov/7/2001 12:58:23
Dale -----MG's official site has revamped a couple more page's in the past
few days
(FAQ's). About 1/2 the pages have a new look, same information that was
there before.
Guess its a work in progress!
Hey any tea and muffin's left for me? i'll make some bran muffin's (gotta
stay
"regular" right? LOL)
Laurie
Come On In with the bran muffins! - Marlene, Nov/8/2001 00:15:51
Laurie,
I think you're right about the bran muffins. All of
us except Paco. He hast to play soccer,Sunday!
There's still a blueberry left for CAROL.
Zan,try the "Sugar Plum" sample while I pass out
these trocks. Dale's got to try trocks!
Don't know whose turn it is to get more logs for
the fire but someone better go soon----Getting cold
tonight!
Michael cookin' up a storm!
Author: Sonja , Nov/6/2001 06:06:30
The Official Site has announced that Michael is a guest on the Wolfman
of Canada's cooking
show! This is one of Marnie's faves....ey Marn? So if anyone gets APTN
(which is hardly
ANYBODY!) please, please watch it for the rest of us!
But of course we can always rely on our best buddy in Canada...our Shining
Light of
Greyland...our faithful keeper of all things MG...just an all round wonderful
gal (gotta butter
her up ya know...she loves a bit of 'grovelling' in the morning! LOL!)
to give us a pretty good
account of happenings, and maybe a "small wonder" or two??!!
(So lets start grovelling, girls!! Ready? All together now : One........two.....three.....)
Sonja: Here Marnie, want more tea?
Marlene: Oh Marnie... do have this muffin! Was gonna have it myself, but
you are welcome to
it!
Nellie: This is the last trock...you have it Marnie!
Dale : (Whispering) Am I at an MG message board...or a lunatic asylum??!!!!
PS: Anyone want to check the announcement out at the OS....click on the
link above this
message.
WhooHooo!! Thanks Sonja! - Jeri, Nov/6/2001 15:21:05
I'm one of the lucky ones who get APTN. I've marked both dates on
my 2002 calendar!!
Jeri
OH! - Marlene, Nov/7/2001 06:15:31
Lucky-Lucky Jeri! I bet you'll check out Episode 19
also on that Wolfman Cooking show.
And dear,dear Marnie---she could do wonders when
Episode 20 comes about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WELL???
Author: dale , Nov/9/2001 04:43:37
I'm I in a lunatic asylum?And explain...what is it w/the tea and muffins?a
reference to
Michael "Earl" Greyeyes?
EXPLAIN before its too late!!!
Now Dale! - Marlene, Nov/9/2001 06:06:26
You were warned about us being a little bit crazy
here! Have you visited Greyland as yet? Now that's
a real different experience. Check it out! Our
Marnie is a real talented gal.
As to Earl Greyeyes Tea-----Just a little honor
for our Michael. I thought it very cool when I first
visited the Message Board.
As to SWCH or any of MG movies that are on TV again,
I say let them roll! I think all the petitions
and letters that loads of Michael's fans wrote&
Emailed to the networks really helped a great deal.
Well, I'll let Marnie&Sonja or one of the other
regulars explain "TROCKS" and so forth. Like Marnie
has said we're here to have fun and find out any
news possible about our Michael and maybe Wes Studi,
Adam,Rodney and any of the wonderful NA actors and
actresses that have had the wonderful experience of
working with Michael.
Lunatic assylum it may be...but we like to call it 'Greyland'!! LOL - Sonja,
Nov/9/2001 06:10:54
Well Dale...you have asked about our illustrious and rich history! :) Who
better to
educate you than the now defunct
Lord-High-Keeper-of-the-Votes-who-is-Still-Awaiting-a-New-Job-and-Title!
(in other
words...*ahem*........ME!)
Of course the tea is our very own delicious Earl Grey(eyes) tea...and every
true
Greylander starts her day with a steaming cup! Muffins came about because....well...who
doesn't like muffins?!! *smile* (And they brought a welcome respite to
those endless
cucumber sandwiches!!)
As for the Mad-Hatter type tea party at this board... can't really explain
that one!!
But it may help to check out the Recipe page at Greyland.
You will not be here long before you will come face to face with your first
'cucmber
sandwich'!! Ah what a history! You will have to find your way to the Greyland
library
(links page) to read all about the Great Voting War of '99, in order to
understand our
great affection (?) for cucumber sandwiches!
Basically Dale, all you will need to know to understand our 'nut-case'
existance, can be
found in the Greyland Annals. The more you explore there, the more you
will
understand! (Or the more confused you will get! LOL!)
Enjoy!
Cont. - Sonja, Nov/9/2001 06:19:52
To continue......
Trocks are....well, they are simply trocks!! They mean something specific
to each
individual (including meanings which cannot be repeated here on this 'family'
orientated board! *grin*), and in order to get some vague idea about them
you may
check out a few recipes for trocks at the recipe page.
Some of the things we discuss here come out of Saturday 'chats' which all
Greylanders are encouraged to attend first Saturday of every month...times
on the
chat page!
Lets see...anything else you need to know?
Re: Cont. - dale, Nov/10/2001 15:57:21
Thanks for the explanation--if I can put up w/those NUTTY studies--yous
are a cinch!!!
FUNNY--because TROCKS are a nickname for an all male ballet troupe !!
And we know that MG did the Ballet circit--problably knows who they are....
Interesting! - Marlene, Nov/11/2001 14:56:27
Hi dale!
Very interesting about"TROCKS" being a nickname for
an all male ballet group!
We learn something new,each day! Well I don't think
Blueberry Muffin or Bran Muffin are names of groups
but correct me if I'm wrong!
Re: Interesting! - dale, Nov/12/2001 04:23:49
LOL-not that I know of Marlene(Blueberry & Bran-sounds like a
girl rap duo)
BABY one more time....

Skipped Parts on DVD
Author: dale , Nov/12/2001 04:25:42
Is there a uncut version of this?Curious.
The unkindest cut - Marnie, Nov/13/2001 17:21:16
Ya get to see him in his baby blue boxers ...what more do you want?!!!
LOL
I don't think there are any different cuts out there yet, it didn't get
a theatrical
release either so the version out now seems to be the finished product.
We can live in
hope though, *g*
Marnie
Checking in - Carol, Nov/13/2001 21:24:44
O.K. O.K. so I haven't posted lately. Welcome Dale,to the
most enthusiastic group of fans. Also, thanks, Marlene for saving
me a blueberry muffin, by the time I got to it, it looked, and tasted
more like Sonja's fry bread.*g* Craaack, thwamp! there goes another
tooth!Well, who needs teeth anyway!I'll just gum my food to death.
I think Zan's description of what a trock is, on the recipe page
is right on! Someone mentioned a ballet troupe by the name of
TROCKS. I think it's a comedy all male ballet troupe.
The Trocaderos, or something, something, Trocaderos.
Sonja, missed you at Sat chat, hope to chat with you next month.
talk to me - Marnie, Nov/14/2001 14:33:06
Hey Carol, drop me a line. I meant to e-mail you after Sat Chat ...but,
well, I
dumped my address book after the virus ate my 'puter...now I'm all alone,
sitting sobbing in my tea and chewing on left-over muffins!
Marnie:(
OH WELL.... - dale, Nov/14/2001 02:41:20
THANKS MARNIE...HEY CAROL.Is MS.S fry bread THAT BAD?????
LOL - Sonja, Nov/14/2001 05:51:24
You better believe it!! LOL! My frybread can kill!!
QUESTION MARNIE
Author: dale , Nov/14/2001 02:43:13
Is there a way I can retrieve the BUFFALO TRACKS article from the archives--I
want to
print it again.
THANX
perhaps....or not - Marnie, Nov/14/2001 14:44:37
Hi Dale,
As the boards been so busy some of the messages have been automatically
deleted. I
archive every now and then to try to save them ...don't know if the BT
interview is in on
one of the pages I've been preparing but I'll have a hunt around for it!
Marnie:)
"New Look"
Author: Sonja , Nov/16/2001 06:37:29
As you may know the Official Site has been doing some work on their pages.
They have let us
know that we can "officially" announce the new "Official" pages! *g*
The new look is much easier on the eye (as those of you who knew the old
format will agree!)
and much more user-friendly. So check it all out!
Re: "New Look" - dale, Nov/19/2001 00:17:09
I didnt have any trouble w/ the old look,but I like the coloring of this
new one.A
beautiful ,Bright Man deserves beautiful colors!!!
New look - Carol, Nov/19/2001 23:47:45
The new look over there is much easier on the eyes,looks great!
Too bad they don't have someone with the sense of humor or,talent that
Marnie
and
Sonja have. This site is oodles better! That is if you have a
thing for oodles.
Dale... your blueberry muffin was great....., compared to Sonja's fry
bread.*g* My dentist sends his regards!
BTW My daughter had a girl!She named her Julia, so my suggestion
of Michaela Josephina is a no go. Mikala or Michelle
didn't work either.
If I don't get a chance to post anything before Thursday,just
wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Re: New look - dale, Nov/20/2001 02:51:56
AH Thank you Carol--they're my specialty!
(?)
Re: New look - Sonja, Nov/20/2001 05:59:22
Gee Carol...thanks for those kind words! Wow, feels good to be appreciated!
We sometimes wonder if what we are doing isn't..um... 'TOO MUCH!'...but
well, seems there are a few others out there who are 'in' to 'oodles' too!
YAY!! Yup we do TRY to make being an MG fan FUN! (We just haven't
mastered the art of frybread making yet! :D )
Anyway, glad you like it all, Carol! (You are now our new favourite person!
*grin*)
Now that I'm done gushing, and am all red in the face and squirming, I
need a
cuppa...pass the tea and a cuke sandwich someone!
Official vs. unofficial - Laurie, Nov/20/2001 16:00:17
Hi Carol the difference may be that the OS is an "official" website that's
there to present facts and figures and news. Dont know if official sites
for
guy's like Brad Pitt are full of fun and joking,probably not either!!
The ladies there probably have as good a sense of humor as the next guy
but
who knows maybe MG wants this to look almost like his professional resume.
They are probably making the OS the way he wants it.
We can see from things he's written that MG can be a very funny guy!
That's where Marnie and Sonja come in, there's also room in cyberspace
for
an "unofficial" site that doesn't have to be "serious" so fan's can let
they're
hair down and have some goodnatured fun..
Or shave it all off like in one of those photo's *g*!
The OS must approve cuz they have a link at the bottom of the announce.
page to Marnie and Sonja's site!!
Laurie
Re: Official vs. unofficial - Marnie, Nov/20/2001 19:58:34
Yup...the OS has to be presented in a more sedate professional
way...but you bet they have a sense of humour...they do put up with us,
after all (and only threaten spankings every other month!!! mwahahaha!)
Marnie:) looking worriedly over her shoulder...
New pics in the MGfans gallery!

ABOUT MY BOOK! - Marlene, Nov/22/2001 08:35:25
First of all, thanks to you all for your interest in
"Echo of An Angry God" Michael and Nellie got a
rough draft of it a long time ago.
It's a romance,setting is modern day.
If any one is interested in reading a little of it
or any of my other stories go to:
www.rosedog.com Click on the yellow showcase
bar in the center. When the next screen comes up,
type in my name to the left,under author--Marlene
Monroy When a discription of the stories come up,
click on the one you want to read.
As to THE COVER;--An artist from the publishing
company will start to work on it soon.
As to RELEASE DATE:---March 2003
If you choose to read "ECHO---" bear in mind,
Michael is Joel Loneman TEE!HEE!
AND THE PICS ARE GREAT.... - dale, Nov/21/2001 15:35:06
...did Michael still pose for that one in his blue boxers????Gee he should
have his
own catalog-OOOPPPS-he may be reading this!!!
Congratulations Marlene!!! - Carol, Nov/21/2001 19:18:54
I'm anticipating the distribution of your latest work, as much as a new
MG movie
release!
Do you have anything to say about the cover?
Is this your first book? Details,details please.
Thanks Carol! - Marlene, Nov/22/2001 08:50:07
The publishing Company told me it will take about 20
working days a month to produce my book for
distribution. Hmm!seems long,right? It will be
released in the spring of 2003.
I didn't realize I had put so much of it on rosedog.
So,if the spirit moves you,please read it and I hope
you will enjoy! Of course the last part with Joel
(Michael Greyeyes) and family in New Hamphire is the
best part and the most exciting! HA! HA! Thought I'd
just put a little interest here TEEHEE!
Happy Thanksgiving! - Carol, Nov/22/2001 17:04:39
Marlene-2003 is such a long way off.(sigh)Oh well, all good things
come to she who waits.
Hmmmm Michael with a New Hampshire(Nu Hampshauh)accent. I
wonder
what that would sound like?
No Way Carol! - Marlene, Nov/23/2001 06:22:37
Michael is just perfect of voice,expression and his
laugh. That laugh is so great---once heard,one can
never forget it.
Besides,the character in my book is just sent there
on a case. You see he works for the Envronmental
Protection Agency. Well, you just got to read the
book OK?
You've really got my curiosity up now, Marlene -
Carol, Nov/23/2001
20:15:45
This story line sounds good. No New Hampshire accent
huh? I shall read the book when I get my hands on it.
Maybe paste a picture of Michael on the front or use
a pic of him as a bookmark.
I agree with all the descriptions of Michaels voice,
expression and laugh. Oh darn, I'm drooling again!
Anyone seen my drool bucket around?heehee
Coincidink! - Marnie, Nov/20/2001 18:54:25

Strangely enough just as I finished off the gallery I was browsing through
the channels
at some ungodly hour in the morning (well, who needs sleep anyway!) when
I came across
an old Star TV segment on 'Skipped Parts". So for those of you who were
after extra
"SP" bits (this means you Dale *g*) ...here's a "Small Wonder" of "His
Gorgeousness"!

l am delighted to have come here this morning and
find some new pictures. l am smiling big!
Great start to the day.
Thanks, Marnie for the new pictures of Michael! -
Carol, Nov/21/2001 19:50:10
They are simply scrumptious!
Ahhhhhhh! Something else to be thankful for this holiday!
After retrieving my new grandaughters photo from e-mail,
I surfed over here. My sister came in to see the baby pictures
only by then I was viewing the new pics of MG. She looked at the
screen and said, "Boy,Lori wasn't kidding when she said the baby had
a load of dark hair!"
Baby, Oh Baby!!!
Happy Holidays everyone!!!
Author: dale , Nov/21/2001 15:40:55
Its funny cause I asked in the NEXT bunch of MG questions how he
felt about Thanksgiving?
I wonder when those questions will be posted?
Happy Thanksgiving to all! - Carol,
Nov/22/2001 17:07:20
Time to go feast! Yum!

favorite foods.
To all those turkeys who escaped the butcher's block
I say-------"Stay COOL DUDES and stay alert!-------
There's always next year!"
MARLENE!!!
Author: dale , Nov/24/2001 14:46:06
Tell me the details of this new book w/MG as inspiration-is it a
romance/historical book??????
Need the info-Marlene! - Carol,
Nov/24/2001 16:08:48
What type of book is it?
Hi Carol! - Marlene, Nov/25/2001
07:37:48
"Echo of An Angry God" will come out in soft cover
in Spring of 2003 It takes that long because the
publishers work only 20hrs a month on it.
Anyone interested in reading it can find the first 7
chapters on rosedog.com I don't think they'll
change very much for the printing time.
If you do decide to read it,please let me know what
you think of it. OK?
That's www.rosedog.com---Showcase---then the title.
A simple Romance ! - Marlene, Nov/25/2001
07:22:12
"Echo of An Angry God" is a simple
modern day
romance. I guess I thought a lot
about Michael being
in modern day movie settings and
just wrote the story
around him. That's why I loved Michael
wearing that black
western hat in SP. That's how I pictured
him in the
story.
I got several chapters on www.rosedog.com
Go down the MG messages under (ABOUT
MY BOOK) There
you'll find the instructions to read
the story on
rosedog.com
