MS. Found from Michael
Being the luckiest of people, I had a spill down an escalator and met a wall with 10 steel grids on it. Tried to reshape my face and of course, it hasn’t, unfortunately. But don’t worry. I’ll be back soon, writing.
So-
See ya real soon!
M-I-C-K-E-Y
Why? Because I probably like you.

Hi Michael,
Get Well Soon!
As someone who has fallen down stairs twice with dire results (broken arm, cut on forehead, the other broken arm,sprained foot, etc.) I can say I can imagine how you feel! Sorry ;>(

Sana Sana y Cuidate señor Miguel Gato. Just spoke to John Canemaker yesterday at his panel sharing on Bruno Bozzetto, Italian animator, and book signing at WD family museum in SF and I asked about you. He said you were okay; no details. Miss your blog, it’s great. Thank you.
best
Francisco

Is anyone planning on watching “Saving Mr. Banks� It sounds like it might be interesting enough but I’m not greatly excited about it. Just curious enough, I guess.
I’d probably be down with a madcap version of Walt in South America. That I’d clear the line to watch.

Merry Christmas , Michael ! I hope you are recovering well from the tumble you took and that 2014 will see you back in the blogging saddle. (but even more important, I hope 2014 sees you back in the animation director’s chair )

Get well soon Michael and happy holidays! Thank you for all the insightful content that you have provided over the years and making sure that the legacy of these past animation greats doesn’t die out.

I still can’t think of anything helpful to say Michael. However I will wish you well because it can’t hurt, unlike an unfortunate run-in with a gridded wall. May 2014 and beyond shine upon you favourably.

Mike:
I’ll just say I’m glad you’re on the mend, because the thought of your brilliance being sidelined is too much to bear.

Hi Michael!
Hope you are recovering well. Wishing you a happy, healthy, healing 2014. I just got a return on the card I sent you. Email me your address if you’d like me to resend it.
Still a fan…of yours!
