But it's only aesthetical in a comic book

Rat carcass in alley this evening. Tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face.

Sad when you almost step in vermin, and the first panel of Watchmen is the thing that leaps to mind. At least I didn't skid in it, like once before.

I think it's "dog carcass" in the original, yes. Bloody memorable opening.

Did your consolation CD arrive, btw?

No! That makes the second package that's gone missing here, I suppose. (And there was a third, with a couple of graphic novels inside, that got stepped on.)

I did manage to order your chapbook, though. Quite enjoyed it.

Glad you enjoyed the chapbook, but yikes! I'm sorry about your mail woes. I can try sending another disc and marking it BOOK or something equally repellent to thieves, and hope it doesn't get trodden.

I would like that if you feel like it -- whenever it's no bother.

There was another bit of mail I was getting suspicious about, after this, but it turns out it's still unsent, so we're not yet up to "three times is enemy action".
