and i mean both of you!
yes my dear readers, i will answer your call. i will post again.
just not right now.
...
so, i was looking at my sharpie the other day. a little more intently than usual and i noticed this labeling:
"not for letter writing or cloth"
what?
did i miss something? isn't that what sharpie is all about? writing on anything? and why not letter writing of all things? what exactly does "letter writing" include, anyway? like a thru z? what about numbers? or maybe they mean mail. but what if i am composing a letter on plastic to be read by someone in a rain forest? can't i write that letter with a sharpie? and why do they care what i write letters with anyway? they should just be happy that i am still using the postal system!
i think i will send a note to the sharpie company written with their markers... no, better yet, written with felt tip and sent on a particularly rainy day. ...ooo. but then they wouldn't be able to read the letter and the subtle irony would be lost... but that may prove to be even more ironic. but then the point wouldn't be made...
ah, forget it. sounds like too much work...
for audience participation: what does that line "not for letter writing or cloth" mean to you? thoughts?

I don't know WHAT that means! I'm really up in arms about the whole cloth thing--what do they think moms use to write initials on the tags of their kids' coats and hoodies and assorted lose-able clothing items? Are we just supposed to take all that initial writing back? Sorry, we didn't mean it, we relinquish these clothes to the lost and found abyss, never to be reclaimed? I DON'T THINK SO.
Okay, this is not why I read your blog. You're not supposed to get people all worked up over things. I gotta go de-stress now.
I think it means no letter writing or cloth. Yeah. Just symbols on paper.
Funny it doesn't mention dry erase boards. Some idiot is always using permanent marker on dry erase boards and this is why.
