HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANGIE!!!

I hope you like your present. I think you'll find Blue quite useful. I made a couple of modifications and you're now his primary master. I'm sure you'll think up some mods of your own to do. Please take care of him and enjoy! He's all yours, love.

I know. You're thinking what in the world is Rollie up to now. Well, sweetie, I've come to the realization that the city was killing me. I need to, as Mangela would say, get back in touch with the Earth. So, I'm taking a sabbatical and doing just that. I'm not positive what I'll do after that, but I don't think I'll be returning to special effects. It's just not as much fun anymore. Maybe I'll take up design. I can create the gadgets, gags and effects, then let others buy them and use them. Designing is a lot more fun than dealing with crazy directors, egotistical actors, interfering studios, etc. You know what I mean. You've been dealing with it too, these past several months.

And NO, Bluey is yours now. I won't claim him or accept him back. He wouldn't enjoy the Outback. Too much dust and sand. It'd get into everything. He'll be much happier with you.

 
                                                                                           All my love,
                                                                                           Rollie
 

P.S. Please feel free to dispose of the things I left behind that you don't want. Perhaps you can have a FX yard sale. I won't be needing them anymore.
