Now you too can enjoy my Inbox without
the annoying spam. Every week I get some amazing e-mail. Some amazing
because of the sheer cluelessness of the sender, some because of
the time and energy that went into crafting them and some are just
simply amazing.

You run a cool website and have provided a lot of funny articles
over time, but sorry man, the last article on Jesus just went
too far...I know you don't have any sacred cows in your life,
but this is one thats worthwhile getting 'sacred' about...I
never used to believe it myself, but Jesus transforms lives
and I recommend giving him a go...see you 'round...
Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I'll pass.

Subject: I, Robot...how disappointing.
(Preface: compliment site in general. State length of readership.
Declare that once you totally got a letter posted in the mailbag.
Act as if this means you two are close friends. Compliment site
again in a jocular manner. Move on to actual topic.)
I'm writing because I'm pissed off at the new "I,
Robot" movie.
So pissed off, in fact, that I'd appreciate it if you would
take a look at this petition here.
http://www.petitiononline.com/Asimov31/petition.html
You see, I'm pissed off because I'm a geek. I'm a geek
who always used to like to read science fiction. And I hear
that
they're turning
one of my favorite books into a movie. Hurray. They did that
to Minority Report and LotR and both were good. And now I see
that
instead "I, Robot" will be trash. Completely unlike
the book.
I know online petitions do absolutely nothing (especially with
no signatures) but I decided I might as well send it to every email
address I know. You fool, placing your email out there for the
entire world to see!
P K is now my new best friend.
