I'm kinda of considering sending him a postcard with a heads up. Except I have exactly no idea what to write. I'm not sure if he would reply to an email. Ehm...excuse me, but am I the only one lucky guy who got Jo's reply? ;D Me too maybe it's the same reply

I guess so, he can't answer to every message he gets, he should stay up all night long every night... But he's been very kind anyway, I'd like to write him back to thank him, but I don't want to overload his mailbox!

Yes, that's it. Letter by letter. Another friend of mine, who wrote to him in German, has received the same answer in English. To bdc: Ciao, sono Mauro da Torino, piacere mio. Magari potremo chiacchierare ogni tanto via PM, se ti va.

I'm generally more in favor of sending snail mail in those cases. I technically have never sent anything, but from what I heard for other people you usually get at least an autographed picture back eventually even it it takes a long time (a friend of mine once had to wait like half a year, but that was a primetime show; don't know if it is slower or faster on soaps).

Perhaps I'll send him a postcard afterwards, but for me it was important to let him know some things. I got his reply so I know that he read my message, and I'm glad about that. I'm not a fetishist of autographs and so on... I hope I'll find Thore's email address as well, I'd like to write to him too.

I'm not a fetishist of autographs and so on... I hope I'll find Thore's email address as well, I'd like to write to him too. Hi I wrote Jo, too. He replied today. Same message as the English one – only in German LIEBER GERRY, VIELEN DANK FÜR DEINE MAIL. ICH HABE MICH SEHR DARÜBER GEFREUT. DA ICH MOMENTAN SEHR VIELE ZUSCHRIFTEN BEKOMMEN, IST ES MIR ZUM JETZIGEN ZEITPUNKT LEIDER NICHT MÖGLICH, AUF JEDE MAIL SO AUSFÜHRLICH EINZUGEHEN, WIE ICH ES GERNE WÜRDE. ICH WERDE VERSUCHEN, DIES SO SCHNELL WIE MÖGLICH NACHZUHOLEN. BIS DAHIN HOFFE ICH, DASS DU WEITERHIN VIEL SPASS MIT DER VERBOTENEN LIEBE HAST UND MICH WEITERHIN SO FREUNDLICH UNTERTÜTZT. ES WIRD SOMMER - JUHU! :-)) LIEBE GRÜSSE, DEIN JO WEIL Anyway – he’s a lovely person – I met him twice. Here the Link to Thore’s HP and the way getting contact: www.thore-schoelermann-fanpage.de/index.htmlwww.thore-schoelermann-fanpage.de/kontakt.html

Please take additional Thore talk to the existing Thore thread. Let's keep this one focused on Jo.

I think he started something big when he asked his fans to write him ;D He does not have time to write individually to everybody

Personally, I'll write him anyway (snail mail). The various interviews about the show often mention fan mail and I think sending the message that a storyline is popular and close to the hearts of a lot of people is important. I certainly wouldn't take it for granted that the storyline will definitely continue. A lot of things could happen, ratings fall or a regime change or just writers getting bored with things or getting distracted by other storylines. So honestly felt appreciation for a storyline, no strings attached, can never be a bad thing in my eyes.

I think that snail mail is also more appreciated, that somebody took time and stood up from behind the computer

Exactly! Snail mail simply shows more respect.
I wrote to him in 2001 and he sent me a short, but very nice response. ;D Call me strange, but the letter is still on my night desk - and his autograph has still its place of honour on the shelf next to my bed - so I always immediately can see it when I come into the bedroom...

Exactly! Snail mail simply shows more respect. I'm sorry but I don't agree. We live in the XXI century, emails represent nowadays the great majority of mail exchange, in many fields (business, public administration, ecc...), I don't think an email can be seen as lack of respect for someone. It depends on what you write. My message was very polite and I'm sure he appreciated it. It's very nice if somebody wishes to send snail mail, but my idea is that the content definitely matters.

I agree aldebaran – and of course it depends on what you have written. However, I sent a “snail mail” (postcard) as well. Knowing Jo he enjoys and reads both! ;D Starting autumn this year he is on stage again (“Ganze Kerle”). Absolutely fabulous... gorgeous... marvelous..., Jo as Liza Minnelli!! ;D For more see below www.kempf-theater.de/coproduktionen/kerle.shtmlwww.kempf-theater.de/download/komoedie0809.pdf

I love your avatar mounti, Jo is simply adorable in that picture! And thanks for the theatre news! Thanks very much!!! Jo is really somebody very special. I met him first in 1998 at Riva del Garda (Lake Garda - Italy). He was on "Arabella Kiesbauer" a German TV (Talk) Show... very charming already at that time! Two years later he started his carrier at “Verbotene Liebe” as Oliver Sabel. And here something sweet – Easter Monday 24/03/2008 – Thore and Jo participating on a “Bob race” in Alpine Region of Scheffau Tyrol/Austria. Thore was the winner in the category “Celebrities”. Jo… well... place 15 or 16… This link brings you to an interview published in “ADAM” (German Gay Magazine – edition February ’08). Jo talks about his life, partner and dreams… www.jondral.de/kuenstler/presse/weil_jo03.pdf

I don't find it strange, Lake Garda is one of Germans' most loved italian places, the first time I went there I was surprised by discovering that lots of signs are written in both Italian and German! Nice photos (this one and the other with Thore), thanks! It was you who took them, wasnt'it? Lucky man!!! Thanks for the interview page too, I'll send it to a friend in order to get it translated into Italian! Wow, you're my new hero!!!
