- CanStruction - November 6, 2002
This year we are collecting cash donations for the Second Harvest Food Bank
Canstruction program. We will be building a structure at West Town Mall on
November 6th out of cans purchased from your donations. By collecting cash
we can purchase more cans through wholesale than if you brought in cans yourself.
Please give generously on October 29th and November 5th. Thank you.

- Pellissippi TRIO-SSS Show - October 23, 2002
We performed for the TRIO - Student Support Services group at Pellissippi State
College. It was a tremendous success and we wish to thank all involved in
bringing us to the campus. We shortened our show and went from 6:30 p.m. until
about 7:45 p.m. to rave reviews from students, faculty and special guests.
We look forward to performing there again, maybe even again on Mole day.
Special thanks to James, Kevin, Robert, Sherry, Gregory, Marna and Barbara.

- Stuff the Bus Benefit - August 6, 2002
The benefit for the Stuff the Bus drive by the Knoxville Area Rescue Ministries
was a success. With the help of our generous audience we were able to contribute
$79.11 to the fund that helps underprivileged children with school supplies.
Honorable mention to the 99.5% ream of legal paper donated by Scrooge McDuck.
Also, Paul sends his thanks to those who serenaded him on his birthday with a
kudo to Kim for the cake. Mmm, chocolate.

- New additions on stage - June 25, 2002
After a while of five members only we are proud to announce the appearance
of three new members on stage. The three will be performing for the first
time this Tuesday. If they survive the probationary period and get the
requisite amount of chuckles and guffaws per show they will be initiated in
to the ranks of the true Einstein Simplified members. Please welcome them
to the stage: Brad (no a different one), Justin (he's Canadian) and Frank
(Todd's good clone).

- Farewell and good luck to Marshall Slayden
Marshall Slayden, long time fan, frequent suggestion giver and offspring
primus of Bill Slayden is on his way west. West to Oklahoma to fulfill his
dream of succeeding in radio. Marshall hosted his second show for us on
June 4, 2002. Yes, Marshall is second to
Sean
as an audience member host.
He did a fantastic job both times and he will be missed. Good luck Marshall,
Bill has already sent money to you so get there fast.

- Goodbye Josh, Goodbye Brad, Good Luck Both
Josh is in Birmingham, AL now as is Brad. Josh performed for the final time
on February 26, 2002. Brad performed the last time on stage back in 2001 but
his car engine dying in Birmingham closed the deal on his return. Brad is in
Alabama with his bride and Josh is in Alabama with high hopes.
We wish both well.

- Give me a Location ... and a Fiancée
Here's something you don't expect to get from a visit to an improv festival:
a fiancée. Say what? Well, we went to the Memphis Comedy Festival and Brad
hit it off with one of the performers from the troupe Torrential Downplay. Her
name is Shannon Neil, but will soon be Shannon Neil-Hodson. Ya gotsta ta keep ya
heritage. They make a charming couple as her raw power compliments his tender shy
side. Neither one particularly enjoys wearing socks.

- December 18th Benefit Show Results
The show on December 18th was a big success. We raised $83.25 in cold hard cash and with contributions
of food we weighed in at 54 pounds of edibles. Thank you all so much for coming out and supporting the
cause. Also a big thanks to the surprise gifts of goodies and the large cookie which was shared by all.
Our names were finally in lights ... Christmas tree lights ... made of frosting ... on a decorated cookie
... but in lights nevertheless. Thank you Tom, Jenn, Beth and all.

- No Shows on December 25, 2001 or January 1, 2002
During the holiday season we like to spend time with our families and friends and pass that
thought on to all of you, our loyal followers. This time of year visiting hours at the prison
allow us to spend more time with those who lighten our life and warm our hearts. We are taking
the break to renew our relationships with our incarcerated family and friends that we have
framed over the years. Take time to do the same. See you all January 8, 2002.
