In other news I'm involved with three new projects
I'd like to tell you about:

Webmaster Donna has posted another year of contest
questions and answers up on the musea.us website.
It includes all of those of the past year.

I'm in the middle of recording a third cd of
Hunk and PD music called "THIRDS"

I'm working on the new Musea.
It's issue #151 and I'm looking back
at the first 150 issues and their highlights.
It'll be a special issue with only 150 copies (one for
each issue of Musea so far). Reserve one now.

Have a good summer,
