This
issue of BEhavior is dedicated to gonZo.
What?! The editor dedicating an issue to himself?!
Negative.
Real Life has forced gonZo to take an extended leave from his editorial
position. No, he isn't quitting. He'll be back, though he can't be sure
when. In the meantime he'll be following our efforts to put out a proper
issue.
Because we, the other members of the Editorial Cabal, will have to step
in and try to fill his very large shoes as best we can, by pooling what
skills each of us has to contribute. Please bear with us if we don't come
close to the quality of gonZo's product that you are used to.
For gonZo is a person of astounding abilities:
connoisseur of mammaries, technological wizard, consummate morpher and image
craftsman, highly skilled writer...and, above all, a dedicated editor
embodying the tact, patience and just raw ability found in few.
A true Renaissance man. Yet on top of all this he remains modest to a fault,
rarely openly claiming credit for his work and works. Since we are not at
liberty to reveal his pseudonyms, you will just have to guess as to which
creations that have appeared in BEhavior are his - but we can assure
you that they have been consistently excellent.
And we who have worked with him have only profound respect for his editorial
guidance, perseverance and just plain good work. And you can be sure that
as he reads this encomium - which we swear he did not see before publication
- he is blushing and trying to dream up some witty disclaimer (now, let's
see him worm his way out of that one).
Well, we're all
looking forward to gonZo's return. In the meantime we have managed to get
an issue out with only minor help from our illustrious editor. As we said,
we hope you will forgive us if it's not up to the standard you have become
accustomed to, and we do hope you will find something to enjoy.
