Thanks, that's it. I'm probably not gonna take him. If I do it will be Saturday morning I'll drive him there. I'm supposed to be having a super bowl party on Sunday. I could still cancel that though. He really wants to go bad. And he has been such a good guy, and been through a kind of rough time lately. I don't know.

Roger Zelazny -- Yeah. One of my favorites. I once read something, about 4 yrs ago, really neat, on the internet. It was an elegy to Roger Zelazny or something. I can't remember it exactly, just that I liked it. I clipped and saved it. I'll see if I can find it.

Woudl be great if you and Rose could make it to Houston too. It's a good one, the Houston Rodeo. I've run out of the freebee tickets, but we can all get together anyway.

Found this but it isn't it. What I remember was just a fans poetic expression that incorporated a great many of his writing subjects/titles. It was nicely done.

Roger [Zelazny] was as kind and generous as any man I have ever known. He was the best kind of company. Often quiet, but always interesting. Sometimes it seemed that he had read every book ever printed. He knew something about everything and everything about some things, but he never used his knowledge to impress or intimidate. In an age where everyone is a specialist, Roger was the last Renaissance man, fascinated by the world and all that’s in it, capable of talking about Doc Savage and Proust with equal expertise and enthusiasm.
