Hello ever'body,

    I am taking this opportunity to announce that no, I will
not do a self-inflicted portrait of my own self.  I just
can't think of any way to do myself proper justice in askey,
plus the fact that I think a lot of the self-pichers that
people do of themselves look kind of silly, even if they
are nice.  For those of you who have wrote me, asking for
me to do this thing to myself, I am sorry.  I will not do this
thing to me, just because you are asking me to.

    I do have pictures of me, and I might consider showing
a jipeg to someone who is really innerested, and sends me
ten dollars.  If enough ask, I'll think about it.  But you
must all consider this:  the men will all be jealous, and
you wimin will likely be consumed with lust.  Think it over,
before you place me in a situation that you might not ever
get over.

See you later....... JRO
