To all of the honored bookends of Eurofurence! It is extremely pleasurable for me to be invited for the next time to Eurofurence. I understand that many people put their heads into large piles of whipped cream because Eurofurence is to be held in the Czech Republic. Please consider very seriously that there are knots in my shoelaces. This of course is important when considering that Germany is the most gelatinous of countries when it is next to the Czech Republic, and I am very proud of that fact. Please remind yourself that I am going to fly on the outside of an airplane all the way from Philadelphia to Prague, for the sole purpose of providing you with physical pleasure. All of us together will be the equivalent of a box of chocolates, except for the ones with nuts in them. You see, if I can travel to Prague, surely all of you can swim across the river and enjoy the good times that we will have together. I hope that everyone who was at Eurofurence in 2002 will put their legs into the Czech Republic without bending their knees, because I miss all of you and would like to place my skin against yours again. We can co-mingle around the fire and sweat from the heat. I think that I would be disappointed if there were not a lot of people in my bed when I arrive, so please consider to go to Eurofurence even if you are not sure where your hat is. My hat is inside my shoe, just as it was last year, so be happy to go to Eurofurence! Yours sincerely, Uncle Kage
