The April Issue will be Mailed on Monday

Mr. Rob Zabrecky will be sliding through the postal system starting on Monday, on his way to the homes of all subscribers. The digital edition of the April issue should go live on March 14 if all goes according to plan.

Folks, I'm looking for the usual shout-outs, please post here when you have received the April issue with Rob Zabrecky on the cover. Thanks. Also, let me know if you have looked at the digital edition before receiving the paper. Just curious.

The Zabrecky issue slid into St. Louis on Monday March 18.

I did access the digital edition over the weekend - first thing I read was the great article on Rob Z.

I've been unwell for so long, that I can't remember what it was like to be well. :roll:
But you just can't help loving the Zabrecky Dance!

Richard -- RE: the Tenyo trick you did in the video. It looks like you used an old-style $10 bill. Will the trick work with the current $10, or is there an updated version?

The clear plastic printing plate has an old-style $10 bill on it. You can't really use a new bill--the designs don't match. I actually had to buy old-style $10 bills on eBay. Cost me $20 each!

Aha! Good eyeballs. Danny told me he was going to deliver a video, but for some reason didn't make the deadline. He's a busy performer and travels a lot. So, while the "watch" button is in the printed edition, it's not in the digital edition.

Incidentally, our home copy arrived today as well.

My copy arrived today in Burbank. I always check the digital version as soon as it's available. I don't have an ipad so the text is difficult to read, but I always read Genii Speaks and watch the videos.

I was talking to Rob last night and he was not aware of your Rob Z Finger Puppet Dance video. I think he's in for a treat.

Still awaiting my print issue, but jumped online last night to check out the video supplements. Richard, it is refreshing to see that you don't mind acting a little silly - So many "of our age" have forgotten how important it is to continue doing so. The Zabrecky puppet dance was funny as hell.

Thanks.
My wife thought the puppet dance was funny, so I decided to take a chance.
I am not a comedian, so it's always iffy to do something like that.
I've done so many dumb things already, that by this point in my life, I have little fear of looking like a dunce.

It's not our service, Willie, it's the post office's service. Once your copy is mailed it's out of our hands. I suggest you contact the Genii office and request a replacement. genii@geniimagazine.com

Then why do I get all other items from the USA in less than two weeks, except for Genii, which lately seems to take almost two months to arrive here?

All companies use different private mailing services for overseas customers. If the service we hire is doing a lousy job, please email Margret at the office at genii@geniimagazine.com and she'll nudge them.

I'm not overseas, I'm just over the border. I think your mailing service needs more than a nudge: I think they need the boot!

Just for the record: I held out as long as I could for the March issue but finally e-mailed Margret on 15th April about a replacement copy. She responded immediately (on the 16th) and sent the replacement, which arrived here in France on 23rd April.

I hadn't realised others were still waiting for the March issue, so maybe mine will still turn up. It's happened twice before - once I received the regular copy the day after the replacement came. But in the end it's not wasted if you give the spare away to someone who might decide to subscribe as a result.

You can enjoy the digital edition while waiting for the paper issue to arrive. It actually contains more content with the audio and video.
