I had been wondering when i would receive the summer catalog was as it sounded
like i was the only who hadn't received it yet. Well it seems mine did
arrive, but my wife hid it. She bought my birthday present from it, and
didn't want me to get any ideas. She got me the Soccer bundle. Afterwards
she gave me the catalog. Also, i received the May/June 2000 Mania Magazine.
On the back page under the address label is printed "LUGNET AND THE LUGNET
LOGO ON PG 6 ARE TRADEMARKS OF TODD S. LEHMAN AND SUZANNE D. RICH". Looks
like they have finally given recognition.
