My Dear Stephen,
I received your New Year’s missive this morning. I recognized your firm, manly hand immediately, and avidly opened its envelope eagerly expecting a jolly note, and I wasn’t disappointed.
But, dear Stephen, an assertion that a check is enclosed is not the same as actually enclosing one. Perhaps it has something to do with appearance and reality. This is usually discussed in Philosophy 101. There are people who think that saying something makes it true. I believe that it was Kant who wrote several volumes discussing this problem—or it may have been my mother.
Search as I may, even after carefully inspecting every corner of the envelope, even calling Sam the Bloodhound, Mrs. Garamond’s affable pet, and even after resurrecting Sherlock Holmes and putting him on the case—no check was found.
Sherlock mentioned the ideograms at the bottom right-side of your letter. Watson has been unable to find a dictionary in any language with which to decipher them. Any clues that you might share will be appreciated.
Another mystery to be solved is the regular alternation of lines in bold with lines in regular font in my letters. Please take no ill meaning, friend, in fact, take no meaning at all. My printer is out of control, mischievous, and needs a good thrashing—or, perhaps, defenestration.
I am the late 60s early 70s Bowie. There are some songs that make my haor stand on end and my inside weep with joy from their sublime beauty. HEROES is one of them.
was that a scary question to ask, mr anonymous? well, i really like pink floyd, that "enter the hargis" hussy has almost everyone of my pink floyd cds. i had the box set. i don't know if i'll EVER get them back. (ahem. ahem. **imagine much suggestive throat-clearing***)
Ich bin auch ein Berliner. But I could have guessed that on my own. p.s. My martian explanation is now available on a most interesting blog, comments section, bottom.

Cool, I'm a 90's Bowie with the facial hair to match.
sista, your blog is sublime. --mumbostar.blogspot.com/

It's true I ramble endlessly about hitler and the kabbalah. Sadly, the rest is false.
Is it true Bowie has lung cancer and is a chain smoker? Someone told me that one time.
BTW, Bowie is probably my favorite artist or whatever. Music making person. Well, except maybe for Frank Zappa.

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
Denfenestration is underrated!

how do you feel about pink floyd??

I too, am a jelly donut!
Dont let the hatas bring you down. Bowie rocks!
Mister Underhill, you amaze me.
I'm right here!
Fairest fille,
flee not;
no foe lurks.
Friend,
flirt,
fellow (f)ilanthrope,
We await thee.
I do believe she done gone and hightailed it to Arizonee.
Her and her leaving the house!
Ground control to la fille du frommage.
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
BOWIEMANIA!
Cheesegirl: I need my fix. Please post this weekend.
