With Friends like these...

Hi, Everybody!

So, back in 2006, Dave was going through the Archive and getting stuff organized, when...

Ya know, I'll just let Dave tell it from the Friday, October 13th 2006 Blog & Mail:

All this week the Blog & Mail is brought to you by:
Friends of Cerebus Fan Club packages that were returned as undeliverable by the post office twenty-three years ago!
AMAZING? STAGGERING? UNBELIEVABLE?!!
Not really. They're just, you know, Friends of Cerebus fan club packages that were returned as undeliverable by the post office twenty-three years ago (get a grip, people)
Today's fan club
MYSTERY package is
Amroth Laurelas
of Silver Spring, Md.
ORIGINAL ENVELOPE! STILL SEALED! NO IDEA WHAT'S INSIDE! NIFTY POINTING HAND "RETURNED TO SENDER" RUBBER STAMP! "FIRST CLASS" STAMP IN "LIKE NEW" RED INK!
AND IT WILL BE AUCTIONED ON EBAY TOMORROW AT 4 PM
Hopefully for BIG BUCKS so I don't look like a
Total Chump for having held onto it all these years!
Offer null and void if it turns out that Amroth Laurelas has been in a coma all these years and suddenly awakens miraculously at 4 pm tomorrow going "My FAN CLUB package!" Of course if he suddenly awaken miraculously after the auction is over, Hey, you snooze, you lose, bud. (no offence is intended BY THE BLOG & MAIL MANAGEMENT AND ITS DESIGNATED SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNEES against Our Society's Noblest Disenfranchisees, The Consciousness-Challenged) (or "Physical State Enactment Vegans" if that is your preferred appellation)


Yeah that.
 Wanna know what was inside?

Well, are YOU in luck, because from the Depths of the AMOChive, I bring you: CRAP DAVE GAVE ME IN 2007 AT S.P.A.C.E.:

MEMBERSHIP CARDS!
A 1984 NOTEPAD!



CEREBUS THE NEWSLETTER #11!
 And Dave also gave me:

A LETTER FROM KAREN!

STEVEN AHLQUIST! STEVEN D. AHLQUIST!! I HAVE YOUR SIGNED 1985 FRIENDS OF CEREBUS CERTIFICATE!!! STEVEN AHLQUIST!!!! YOU'RE NOT GETTING IT BACK!!!!!
If'n I 'emember right, Dave was trading with Margaret and had this extra stuff that he gave me on the Monday after the show when I took him out to breakfast at Steak & Shake. Good times...

Next Time: Hobbs? (He ain't got nothing in the kitty, so who knows...)
