Dear Joan,

    Since you are apparently a new fan of the askii scene, let me make
a suggestion...

    Most of the regulars on alt.ascii-art will probably consider your
post and summary request a little rude. They do indeed, waste their
entire lives shitting out askee on their computers, but it's not considered
sublte to remind everyone about it.

    I realize that no one wants to see text-art crap, and commend you for
choosing material that's sure to downgrade your website. What a novel idea!
Please do not worry about the wasted effort I put into your request, as I have
just been sitting here, for two weeks, waiting for someone to request me to
make another bowel movement. You are a godsend!

    Please - PLEASE - send me the details of your request, as soon as possible!
I cannot possibly convey to you the haste with which I pray you reply.

                    Jonathon R. Oglesbee

                           mail.fullnet.net


P.S.: Hurry up! Before one of these other diarrhoeic individuals manages to
      merely squirt your request out by shear happenstance.
