Hi bob. First of all, the answer to what good J has done for the US public is easy. He has made music that’s above and beyond, thus giving the public the possibility of enjoying pure art. By making such great music he has made people from other countries, such as Norway, think of America as a magic land where people sit on beds of clouds and play excellent solos. Or something like that.
As for weird mail, got this couple of weeks ago.
[subject]Relationship between dog and owner.

[body]It is so great to finally find someone with the same view as myself. I have tried to tell people this for years. In my family we have decided that our dog, a wonderful Akita Inu, should be the leader of the house. Both my cats agreed with me on this. He usually wakes us up around seven, then we eat breakfast before we go for a long walk. Some times we stay out all afternoon playing in the park. I Love my dog. Please write back soon.

I’m not sure what to make of this, I’ve tried to reply, but with no luck. So I’m guessing someone has just made it all up. And it’s too f’kd up to be true.

Nothing weird really….just a few receipts from porn sites and one from my mom asking me to change the light bulbs over her garage.

I got an email from Walter Williams once.
