I knew it was going to be one of those letters from the handwriting on the envelope--it had special ed written all over it.

Hmmmmm, I hope people don't assume I'm the arthritic eight-year-old I must appear to be from my handwriting. I guess that's one reason I type envelopes for professional mail I send.

Good. That's about the extent of what I can offer anyone at this point, but that can be a help, no?

Humor is Good.

Never think that a small thing, brudder flea: men have died for lack thereof, as we all know.
