Hello all, I have included this page so we can keep up-to-date about Jackson Austin. For those of you who don't know, Jackson was attacked in front of a Toot-n-Totum on March 29th. He is out of the hospital and recovering at his father's house in Amarillo. As I get more information, I will post it here.
Included so far are my messages from the Reunion Skinny page.
You can leave a message for Jackson here -- I will make sure that he sees this page.
04/08/2002Hello all. I have a couple of reports about Jackson. It has been reported that Jackson was either hit with a baseball bat or a tire iron and that all of the bones in his face were fractured.
Now the good news is that Gonzo e-mailed me last night with the following message:
Hey Jason, just wanted to let you know that Jackson is out of the hospital and is at his dad's house, where he is receiving plenty of attention and reruns of "A&M Classic games" and "Rawhide" to heal him. He is walking and still has his smartass attitude. Still a little shaky on what actully happened. He said he does not remember a thing. I'm not sure how long he will be at his dad's. He can't really talk because his jaw is wired shut, but if anyone asks you personally about him I'm sure you can reach him at this address:
5122 Chisholm
Amarillo, TX 79109
I'm sure he would love the fan/hate mail from you. Gonzo
Thanks to Michael for the update. Get well soon Jackson.

I have received some news about Jackson
Jackson is in the hospital and he is recovering. All think he is going to be ok---pretty swollen and bruised, but thankfully conscious and alert. I don't think anyone knows who did it, or why.
Whenever I get more information I will post it here. There is also a bulletin board posting under the Say Anything page that you can use to post get well messages or any news.
The website is coming along. The people pages have taken a lot more time than I had originally planned. I am adding a page for everyone and creating a title JPG for each page. I hope to have that done by Monday or so. I will also be formatting everyone's information to make it easier to read.
I still need everyone's email address. So if you are visiting this site and I don't have your address, please send it to thisonegoes211@yahoo.com.
I hope everyone had a happy Easter/Passover/Weekend. More to come soon . . .
04/02/2002The page is in the middle of a major update but I felt I needed to add this information immediately.
Jackson Austin was seriously injured on the 29th while entering a Toot-n-Totum. I am at a loss of words right now. At a time like this everything that I want to write or express seems trite and useless.
If anyone knows any more about the situation, please let me know so we can keep everyone informed. I will add a page so people can submit information about Jackson and keep up with his progress.
You can find the Amarillo Globe News article here: Brief: Man seriously injured in aggravated robbery
Godspeed Jackson. May you get well soon.
