Dear Djaohn:

Friends of ours who live on a distant continent wired us a gift. Think of it as a fruit basket. The gift came - of course - with a personalized note.

There was a whopper of a mistake in the note. I assume that our friends dictated the note, over the phone or via the Internet. The whopper occurred during the hand-transcription of their very nice note.

You've heard me say this before: This is the 21st Century! The gift store should have made it easy for our friends to compose their note in a PDF. The store would then print their note and include it in the gift. It's so easy to do this! Let's leave error-laden hand-transcribed gift notes in the past.

Today I weighed even more, 217.6. I hope this temporary weight gain is due to this week's challenging circumstances.
