  • Grant Morrison
    GRANT MORRISON When Grant Morrison took the stage at the Disinfo.Con event, even though it was only 4:30 in the afternoon when the lights went down, it could've been midnight inside the Hammerstein Ballroom. Grant's drunken but enthralling speech began with a scream, a slosh of his beer as he climbed the podium and an admission that he'd just taken drugs and would be flying high by the half hour mark —"So watch for it!" It was pure punk rock theatrics filled with sublime moments —such as Morrison explaining how to work magick spells to all assembled! — and it was certainly one of the event's highlights. The guy was on fire and he looked spectacularly cool up there in his black leather jacket, Donna Karan suit and his shiny, bald pate, just like a white "Shaft." From what I gather, many of the audience didn't know who Morrison was when they arrived, but after that bravura performance, they sure as hell knew who he was when they walked out!' God, where do you start when you're trying to describe a character like Grant Morrison? The most obvious place to start is that Morrison is Scottish. Make that thickly Scottish; born and bred in Glasgow with an accent so strong you'd think he was French! He's also in a select group of contemporary writers who'd be on a Mount Rushmore of comics if such a thing were to exist, alongside Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller and Alan Moore, writers comics fans still read rather than just store in plastic bags.

EVENING. 1 POSH PETE (40s) shuffles through to the kitchen in darkness, switches the light on, gets the bin bag out the bin, ties it up, and puts it outside the back door. He steps into the Dining Room and almost jumps out his skin: the light from the kitchen reveals the silhouette of FLETCHER * (50s) a Private Investigator, sitting at the Dining table with a bottle of Scotch and two glasses poured. FLETCHER Evening Posh Pete. Pete’s fear turns to anger, but he keeps his voice down. POSH PETE I should stab you with that rolling pin. How dare you break into my home Fletcher, this is my sanctuary. FLETCHER I was rather hoping you’d share a drink with me. POSH PETE I’d rather have a drink with my ex wife. FLETCHER I’ve got a meeting tomorrow at your favorite newspaper. As the best Private Investigator in this smokey little town, they’re ready to put a hundred and fifty grand in my pocket to give ‘em some filth. Good for me that, but bad for you. Pete sits down.

    Wyoming State Muzzle Loading Association http://www.wyomingmuzzleloaders.com Letter from the Editor First off I would like to apologize to everyone. I didn’t have my head screwed on straight after I got home from convention. Anyway I owe you all a big thank you for a job well done putting on a really nice convention. To the board, the traders, the demonstrators and everyone one who came and enjoyed. THANK YOU!! Bill and I now have the new website up and running for you all to enjoy. Hopefully we will have all the needed info on it concerning our great association the WSMLA. www.wyomingmuzzleloaders.com The April newsletter is posted on it. This info concerns the clubs who are sponsoring State Sanctioned Shoots. The name of the shooter, target and scores for all competitors shall be posted out where everybody can see them throughout the event. I guess you all will just have to keep checking the website ever once in awhile to see if the newsletter is on it, since I have very few e-mail address’s, so I can’t notify everybody when it will be there. If you want to help sell raffle tickets or buy them for the trade gun, you need to get hold of Carrie Gavin. Her address and phone number is on the board of directors list. If anyone out there has old newsletters from the beginning of the association through 1986, could I talk you into sending them to me? I will copy them and return them to you.
