ROFL!!...oooooooooh u lucky dog u...can I have some plz plz plz..hand extended* grinz..


I recently got an email from a Nigerian scammer posing as an elderly devout-Christian widow with terminal cancer, but it was strictly chump change, a mere 4 million dollars at stake. I don't even buy Lotto tickets when its that much.


I just got an email from my divorce attorney who I ended up loathing more than the guy I was divorcing. I edited her attempts to turn from stupid lawyer to stupider novelist. Three years I edited her drivel until she dumped me for someone who liked her drivel and said it was good after I killed myself teaching her how to make it good. I haven't heard from her in a couple of years. The email was to tell me she was being published. Finally. Did I want to do lunch? I didn't answer. I was afraid she'd ask me to read her book.

Now if she emails back and offers me half of the royalties, I might reconsider except that half the royalties probably wouldn't pay for my lunch.

There is a huge translation of money in there somewhere but seems to me I was the PAY PAL.


Ooh, that reminds me Phoenix! I'm writing a book, "The Dove Flies Ernestly". It's about an airline pilot who is tormented with a serious angst - A love of cheese, but he knows the high cholesterol isn't good for him. You'll laugh, you'll cry... you'll learn to love. I just need an editor. Are you available?


Of course. Let me edit your title. Unless 'Ernestly' is some flyer dude with a nitwit for a mother who would rather have had an adverb than a son, and the dove is doing a Leda & the Swan number on him, that should be: 'Earnestly'.



That was a trial edit, of course. If you like it, we can talk price later.


I got my first authentic-looking phish the other day. For some reason I am oddly proud.
