Hi All:

Congratulation to Joanna Kohlbus, our Contest Czar. Joanna was recently promoted to the position of Manager of Sales and Customer Service at Rittenhouse Archives. An e-mail note from Rittenhouse says "Joanna will be taking over the day-to-day responsibilities for handling all dealer and distributor accounts." It goes on to say "Joanna has demonstrated tremendous knowledge of the card industry and has
dramatically improved our customer service efforts over the past year," said Rittenhouse President Steve Charendoff. "I know that all of our wholesale(and retail) customers will benefit greatly from her experience and enjoy working with her. We are very excited to have her in this new role."

Joanna will be overworked indeed! Again, congratulations and good luck in the new position Joanna.

Wow! I guess congratulations all over the place!! On the job, and the awaited arrival!
I do hope that you will still have some time for us. So, I guess me coming in and taking
your old job is looking a little more realistic than when I first suggested it a while ago!

Congratulations Joanna on the new position at Rittenhouse and to both you and Rob on the pending birth of another child.

What a way to add to the collecting community....

Congrats Joanna, Just think.... pretty soon you may be the "powers that be" in deciding what cards get made, and you will definately have the power to say..."make your bed". Heheheheh.

If you can laugh at yourself....you will always be happy.

Congratulations Joanna

Great job !!! We know you'll do even more great things in your newly achieved position.

I was really happy to hear your news! Pitter patter of those little feet and a promotion to boot! Let us know when we can chime in with possible names! I always go for traditional names It might be neat to see what other names they can come up with around here. Congratulations!

Your in my prayers for a healthy pregnancy!

My baby in now 19 months: walking & talking.
I still can't figure out why pregnancy goes so slow and the rest just flys by.

I'm guessing that Joanna is saving that for a contest in a couple of months - prize to be announced (but definately not 'used diaper' costume cards...)

I'll take the "Drooled on costume cards" subset!

Happy Stargating!

Name my Baby I don't think Robert would go for that -do you? Having said that, I will keep you all abreast of any developing situations regarding Junior (the baby's name du jour)

But, do not fret- for this week friends, there will be a CONTEST. No bout of morning sickness shall keep me from my appointed duties - and this week's should be very interesting. Either it will be solved in a few minutes, or it will take all weekend - hard to say, more details will follow.

Till Later
Your Faithful Czarina (and not so queasy today)
Joanna
