                   HUMOR ONLINE ............ [HUM]
                    Genie Fun & Games.

     To read this article, set your find or search command to [HUM].  If

                      >>> LOOKING FORWARD AND BACKWARD <<<
                          """"""""""""""""""""""""""""

     Before I became editor of this publication, I had a number of
email conversations with Doug Cuff, my predecessor.  One of the things
that we discussed was his typing up some "notes" for me on how to put
_GenieLamp A2_ together.  A few weeks before the first issue of
_GenieLamp A2_ that had \

my name
as editor was to be published, Doug sent me his "notes" via email.  I
used Shrinkit to unpack them, saw that it was an Appleworks Word
Pprocessor \

file, and
used a macro I had written some time ago to load it into Appleworks and
\

print it
out, while I headed for my morning shower.

     I came back to see my printer had run out of paper.  Turns out that
\

Doug's
"notes" were 128k of an Appleworks Word Processor file that printed out
to \

55
pages.

     All of this merely serves to point out again that Doug did a \

remarkable job
as editor of this publication.  I knew it would take a lot of my time to
get GenieLamp together on a monthly basis, but I didn't think it would
be quite _this_ much time.  It was, therefore, a disappointment to me
that I wasn't \

able
to match the size of the previous issues of GenieLamp in my debut issue,
\

nor was
I able to reprint all of the messages that I really wanted to, largely
due \

to
the fact that I was surprised by the time constraints.

     However, as I've been known to say, "If it don't kill you, it'll
only \

make
you stronger," I enter my second issue as editor a little more prepared,
a little wiser, and a lot more experienced.  Work on GenieLamp this
month is starting earlier than usual: in fact, it's starting on New
Year's Day.  I \

guess
