Very Nice

Apologies for the dearth of entries. This damn work-family stuff...

Anyway, I need to take time offer a heartfelt thank you to whatever benevolent crackpot sent along a very cool new T-shirt in the mail on Saturday. The black shirt came in a white, cardboard postal envelope that contained no note but bore the ominous and hilarious return address "Mr. Y, Newburyport."

I had every intention of taking a photo and posting it, but we just bought a new camera, and I'd have to load the software, and, well, you know. But Gillian Swart--who received an identical package--was nice enough to post a photo here.

We'll be running the envelope through the Newburyport Posts Computer in the Posts Cave to match against every signature that has ever appeared on every Buy Local petition, candidate nomination paper and credit card slip signed at the local Starbucks.

So far, only one possible name keeps popping up....Tony Hamlet. Anyone know him?

Seriously, thanks very much to whomever sent the gift. It was a nice gesture that generated a good laugh.
