I sent you a letter yesterday but it's not showing up here. Hmmm... Well, just in case you didn't get it, I wanted to thank you and your team for all the help you guys gave me on Saturday. I apologize for being stressed out in the beginning, (I hate running behind.) but your team made it fun and easy.
I hope we get a chance to work with each other again sometime soon. (Afterall Hellboy 2 IS only 2 months away. :D)
I also wanted to say, I hope Free Comic Book Day was a great success.
Thanks again.
Sincerely,
-John

INDIANAPOLIS MAYOR BALLARD TO JOIN THE ROOMPLACE AT GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION THURSDAY
INDIANAPOLIS (Tuesday, March 4, 2008) – Indianapolis Mayor Gregory A. Ballard is scheduled to join executives and employees of The RoomPlace and other area dignitaries at a ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday to publicly dedicate the company's newest store location in Castleton.
The RoomPlace at Castleton, located at 5651 E. 86th St. at the site of the former Cub Foods northwest of Castleton Square Mall, opened on Feb. 8. The store is a 30,000-square-foot facility that features completely furnished, coordinated rooms created by the company's team of experienced designers. With the slogan, "Great Looks. For Less," The RoomPlace offers leading brands including Lifestyle Enterprise, New Generations, Simmons and Tempur-pedic.
Thursday's ribbon-cutting ceremony will begin at 1 p.m. inside the store's main entrance.
"The RoomPlace's expansion into our region shows the economy of greater Indianapolis is robust," said Roland Dorson, president of the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. "We continue to experience positive trends in the greater Indianapolis business sector and welcome The RoomPlace."
Founder Sam Berman once sold furniture door-to-door in Chicago until he opened his first retail store in 1912. Since, The RoomPlace has grown substantially. Today, the company operates 23 stores in Illinois, primarily in metro and suburban Chicago, and stores in Mishawaka, Merrillville, Castleton and Greenwood, Ind.
In Indiana, The RoomPlace employs nearly 150. Companywide, the company employs more than 900.
"We are excited about the opportunity to officially open The RoomPlace at Castleton with Mayor Ballard and several other area dignitaries in attendance," said Bruce Berman, CEO of The RoomPlace. "We are also thrilled that many of our vendors and suppliers will make the trip to Indianapolis on Thursday to join us on this special occasion."
Hours for The RoomPlace at Castleton are from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
The RoomPlace is headquartered in Lombard, Ill., and operates a state-of-the-art distribution center in Woodridge, Ill.
