……
First, I would like to wish everyone a very Blessed and Happy Easter.
Secondly, I need Bill Kaiser to get in touch with me as soon as possible. your snail mail Newsletter came back and I need to confirm your address. Georgie [email protected] Or if anyone knows Bill, please tell him to get in touch with me.
It seems like I am finally getting over this damn flu, I've had twice since the beginning of the year. From everyone I have spoken too, it's really going around this year.
Even JR has had it for three weeks. My doctor keeps telling me, we all need to wash our hands more, disinfect more (I should buy stock in Lysol spray), and be careful of the water. Good advice if you ask me.

Help Out Nate Stein
I'm sure many of you are familiar with Nate Stein/"Phenom" Phil Stamper. His name has been heard through a lot of independents and is the man who runs Pro Wrestling Press. Most know him for working with Pro Wrestling Unplugged, he is a man who is willing to promote anybody whether known by hundreds or known by only a few. He is a man who will help you out if you need something and is willing to go out of his way to make sure he can help you. Right now he is in a bit of a situation and I think it would be nice if the fans gave back to him for all that he has done for professional wrestling.
Earlier he posted on his MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/psphenom) about his situation, here is the exact message:
"So, I finally got a better answer about my back problems. After an MRI, I have a tear in the lining of a disc, with the inside of the disc herniating out.
The options:
* Surgery that insurance would partially pay for & would be unable to do anything for like 6 months.
* Disc decompression therapy for $4700 that insurance WON’T pay for & would only be out for a month.
Am a little stuck honestly. The thought of a loan absolutely scares the crap out of me, but might be the last choice.
I know no one will, but any donations to [email protected] would be beyond appreciated."

If you visit his MySpace page there is another blog post going further into detail about where his problems first started and addressing more of the situation about what he should do and the risks. I just wanted to take the time to make you fans and readers aware of Nate's situation, if any of you know him you know he is a great guy who will do anything for anyone so if its possible, please try to give back to him when he needs some help with even a small donation. Thank you everyone for your time.
