there isn't a lot of news to report. However, VOLUME 3 of the
Babylon 5 Scripts is released today, so don't miss it. Details are
below and at http://www.babylon5scripts.com.
SPECIAL TREAT

NEW STORE ITEM - BABYLON 5 LIGHT SWITCH
Just Added: "I am Grey"
I am Grey
I stand between
the Candle and the Star
We are Grey
We stand between
the Darkness and the Light
We have made the grey quote available on grey sweatshirts, grey T-
shirts, mugs, coffee steins and lightswitch covers (our personal
fave).

NOW OPEN - WOMEN'S STORE
The Women's Store is Now Open
While the rest of the world was roasting chestnuts by an open fire,
we were knee-deep in one of our favorite projects to date: Women's
Babylon 5 quote wear. We're talking Camisoles. Pink Tees. Even
capped sleeves. All imprinted with everyone's favorite Babylon 5
quotes. Sizes range from 4 to 22.
To see all of these terrific items, go to
http://www.cafepress.com/thejoestore/1022211.
NEW FOR 2006
Just added: mugs and coffee steins with white backgrounds. Yay!
To make room for new stuff we're getting rid of some other
inventory. Say goodbye to greeting cards, postcards, T-shirts with
colored backgrounds, trucker caps and baseball caps which are now in
the section called Retiring, only.

NEW DISCUSSION TOPIC
With the release of Volume 3 of the Babylon 5 Scripts, I think it is
appropriate to have a discussion topic open for those who have
started reading through the first two volumes. What do you think?
Send your comments along to share with your fellow readers to
sgbruckner@... and I'll post it on the Discussion Page. If
you have other issues you'd like to talk about, send them along.
