doing well.

Something else I thought of... please, oh please tell me Rigger 3 will be
like the LAST new thing they put out. I don't want to go back to using
Rigger 2 or even 1!

They will be. At this point, they are still filling orders from existing
stock, and that in this case includes Rigger3 - which is sitting in-house
at the moment.

Well according to the rumormill on DSF R3 was back from the printers,
which means that they have copies on hand. I doubt that there will be a
second printing by FASA but the first run should be distributed.

If they do what Living Room Games did to ED they will take months before
shaking up the SR world no end. I'm kind of sceptical; I've never heard of
these guys before which probably means they're a new company who could quite
easily go bust at any time and will spend years getting together enough
pennies to release a book.

Since most of my face never gets a chance to heal, I've got nothing to lose
in the looks department. My boss, at work, he asked me what I was doing
about the hole through my cheek that never heals. When I drink coffee, I
told him, I put two fingers over the hole so it won't leak.
