Comic-Con Live Birth Update … UPDATED!
Tabloia Mailer #3083
Greetings, fans, and thanks for coming out to see the live birth at San Diego’s Convention!
Unfortunately, due to events beyond our control, the future son of Tabloia’s own Chris Wisnia, and his wife Elizabeth, spoiled the ultimate publicity stunt and didn’t get born at the con!
If, like hundreds of others, you flew down to San Diego specifically to meet and congratulate the eight-plus-month-pregnant Elizabeth, but you missed her, then Chris apologizes! There were simply more occasions than he expected, that he had to send her out into the muggy heat to get him food, or to transport boxes full of books, too heavy to lift himself, or that he needed her to push him back in his “cosy-chair” to the hotel and massage his stinky, corn-covered feet before his nap! But she’ll be back again next year, so make your reservations now!

ANNOUNCEMENT! CHANGE IN POLICY!
Beginning immediately, as to the handling and communicating of the birth progress! Elizabeth has asked that we no longer tell everyone that she’s dialated two centimeters, or that her cervix is thinned out 80%! She doesn’t approve of the graphic nature of the subject matter for our more sensitive readers! She finds it personal and explicit as well! So officially, beginning now, we will no longer mention her vagina, cervix, or other intimate body parts, regarding the birth!

NEWS FLASH! We bring you the news as it occurs … Literally while composing this update, OSCAR FRANCIS WISNIA WAS BORN! He arrived AUGUST 5th, nine days before his due date! Six pounds exactly, nineteen inches long! Elizabeth was admitted into the hospital at 3pm, and unearthly, speedy progress that startled the doctors had Oscar out and ready to begin reading “TABLOIA COMICS” by 7:45!
Obviously his birth date is close enough for us to justify and fully exploit reports of our LIVE BIRTH AT COMIC-CON, come next season!

Dr. DeBunko: The Short Stories by Chris Wisnia
“In order to change the world and make our society a safer place to live, we all need to do our part to promote clear and critical thinking and debunk all the bunkum that pervades our culture.

All skeptics, humanists, scientists, and promoters of clear thinking should have this title on their book shelves.”
