Wow. O_O

It looks like all the big boys have come out to play... Haven't stated a
spam string like this since that elipses incident. I guess I better say
SOMETHING.

AJ Andreason, in all his mismatched-sock and rumpled-hairdo glory, steps up
to the podium.

"Ahem.

First of all, I'd like to thang all you nice people out there for all the
help with my grammar. It's the sort of thing that escapes me so often, I
need all your help and support."

Now, I thing the root of this may have been inherent laziness on my part. I
didn't check well enough. However, the second reason is, I grew up in
Montana. You couldn't find a person within a hundred miles or so of where I
live that had thing and thing put together correctly, and some of it's bound
to rub off."

Also, the thing about when thing and thing came up is that, when an idea
strikes you, you don't spent much time thinging about the thing, you just
right it before the naughty thing makes a getaway--is that one word?--in the
deep recesses of this thinger in my sgull."

Thang you all--(*pauses, and spits out a golfball-sized wad of chewing gum*)
Ahem, I mean, Thank you all for your thoughtful input."

Later!"

AJ walks off stage, stepping on the gum and taking about half of it with him
and smearing across the floor in small patches.

"Eww..."


Okay, there you have it. I hope this was...

Was...

Well, I was going to say "enlightening," but that just doesn't quite
describe it, does it?

Almost finished with chapter seven of Agent of Chaos.

Ja,
AJ Andreason
