Now I'm sure you all remember last fall (you have all of my posts memorized, right?) when I wrote about the plight of the discontinued Gocco. Shucks, I even signed the petition to bring it back!
Well, friends, it seems as though my prayers (and that petition) did not go unanswered. The Gocco is now being imported from Japan and sold at Paper Source, my beloved paper emporium. Of course when I heard the news, I immediately gave notice to my husband. Would the new and improved big daddy of all Gocco machines not be the very best 32nd birthday gift a gal could hope for? Indeed, my friends. Indeed.
So I urged my husband into action. I was fearful that the Gocco crazed "weirdos" (as the kind lady in the Paper Source demo calls them) would storm the stores and deplete their supply. I urged Jack to act now, as supplies were surely limited. He would have to act fast to ensure delivery by October 24th, my birthday.
And it is the result of those actions that allows me to boldly state that I am the new and extremely proud owner (yes, it came within 24 hours, folks) of the big daddy Gocco PG6 machine. Hallelujah and Amen.

hmm! Never heard of such a thing, just googled and read all about them. I m intrigued. Can't wait to see what you make with yours!
I'm so intrigued by the Gocco. I was at Paper Source two days ago and it didn't even occur to me to look into them at the time. Shucks. I gotta check that out.
Perhaps it would make a great 36th b-day present too...hmmm.
Hooray! How exciting! I hope you post some of your Gocco creations soon!
I wanna barrow it! Humm I think a trade could be a foot. How many galesburg garage sales could equal a little press time?
