Gift certificates, however, are always welcome.

Dear Weblog readers,

I should clarify something about our relationship: I type, and you read. It’s a precisely one way street. There are no comments here. This is a monologue, which is from the Greek mono meaning “one,” and logue meaning “shutup and listen to me.”

Please stop sending me strange things anonymously via the US Mail and private delivery companies. I didn’t comment further on the mystery UPS package because it was just promotional material from a pharmaceutical company, and I wasn’t impressed. I’m not impressed by the annotated catalog in the manila envelope that arrived this week, either. Bor-ring.

This is certainly not a challenge to try to send something that will “grab my attention” or “raise the level of discourse” or “make me rethink my perceptions of what is and isn’t possible in the physical universe.” I’m not going to turn my blog into the motherfucking Cosby Mysteries, either. I don’t know who has sent me this junk, and I don’t care. This is the last time I will allude to these incidents.

As always, thanks for reading.

Your pal,

Scott
