Will have more later today…..

Just a quick note to let you know that my friend Bobby put up the two Toy Fair exclusives on eBay for me.  A signed exclusive Bobby Heenan weasel figure and an exclusive Jimmy Hart figure with black jacket.  Both figures are listed for 5 days, these are the special figures of which only 100 are available.
 
Hopefully I will be able to catch up on the wrestling news I missed while I was away.  I hear we are suppose to get anywhere from 3 to 6 inches of snow today, so what better way to spend the day except catch up on all the news.....
 
I will be having lots more later, so stay tuned....  I will also be updating the Autograph Sessions Page, as I know I have many more to add.....
 
I received another great email from Penny Banner ----  
It's Penny wanting to give you a bit of GREAT INFO.........

Love you Georgie Girl...........Hugs, Penny
 
Great news Penny, keep up the great work.  I am now cancer free almost two years and loving it.....
 
Also received an update on Bill Watts book from Bill Watts:
Re: The Cowboy and the Cross, the Bill Watts Story
Hate to keep 'bugging you'.....but just got some info about 'our book'......from the publisher, ECW Press (which has a good track record for the books they have published.)
 
Their VP, the person handling our account with them, called and left word that there has been a 'screw up' with the 'printer'.....the company that actually prints their books......and the were NOT shipped as per the 'release date' given....which is the one we had previously emailed you. I don't even have a copy of our book yet.
 
However.........they will be shipped this week, so should be in the major bookstores late this week or at least by next week.
 
They are calling the major distributors.....because as we have shared with them, some of the things that many of you have been told: 'It's out of print'.....or, 'the publisher cancelled it'......or, we're out of stock'......or other such misinformation.
 
However, they also let me know that 'this damage control information' generally does NOT get 'trickled down' to their actual retail outlets.
 
So, again, thanks for keeping us informed too.....as we do not have any 'previous experience' in this field. And also, please keep 'checking your local major bookstores' and 'bothering them about the book'....and when they tell you 'they can order it for you'......if that is how you wish to get it, fine, but please also tell them you want to see a copy first......and for them to let you know when it comes in.
 
Then, as you find outlets that have actual copies 'in stock'.....let us know too.
 
Meanwhile, http://www.amazon.com/ and http://www.barnesandnoble.com/ are definitely taking on line orders now.
 
We are getting a lot of media interest, especially in the radio media with, of course, pro-wrestling coverage or shows.
 
Again, thanks for your patience, and your loyalty. Remember, if you buy a copy or copies of our book, we would be 'privileged' to sign it for you personally....or to the person for whom you are buying it.
 
Just send it to me at: Bill Watts; 11063-D South Memorial Drive, # 401; Tulsa, OK. 74133, with a self-addressed postage paid return envelope, and instructions for who you wish me to 'make the signing to.' 
 
Finally, and really, most important, please give me some 'feedback' when you've read it.
 
My good friend, Bill Noble, who played football with me at OU, called when the Tulsa World Newspaper story came out, and said his daughter was reading the article Jimmie Trammel wrote, and said, 'Oh my gosh, all those things you told us about him are true!' He got a big kick out of that.   .....Bill
