Subject: my latest onion radio news is up and . . . - April10, 2007



my latest humble vocal characterization for the onion's radio news made it to "air" last week but i've neglected to write about it 'til now.

it can be found here. (i'm the fellow charades player.)

now, for your edification and entertainment, it's --


Time again to open up "The Old Mailbag".

Hiya Andrew

I have to say, I like the italics. Not only do I feel that they're used appropriately (even in the maligned coca-cola piece) but I find them positively helpful: they make it easier for me to hear your voice in my head when I read your words -- an enormous bonus for those of us trying to fully enjoy your comedy from overseas. Here in Scotland we have only your careful use of textual style to comfort and amuse us. (Well, that and real-sugar coke, of course.)

Actually, that's not all that I have to add to my enjoyment lately. I have also quit my job. (Did I mention the crappy civil service-type job that I'd been languishing in for the past 4 1/2 yrs? Well, it's goodbye to all that.) I have a new job in audit and accountancy, which I'm delighted about. I know that might seem crazy, but I am genuinely excited to be working in public finance.

So, I will still be working long hours and dividing my time among various Scottish cities, but when I am Edinburgh-based and keeping a reasonable schedule during August it'd be great to meet up. Let me know more about your schedule in Edinburgh as & when...

Best,
B

What a grand adventure! It makes my day of cleaning out my storage space (still too many 90's ghosts to get rid of) seem uneventful. No moral dilemmas. No saving humanity from an epidemic, not even the whiff of food. I did find an item that I swore I returned to it's rightful owner, insisting as much to the owner years ago. Now it turns out I'm just a liar.

I like the new approach to your blog. Kind of like a Larry King column if he were really high. Like a Haiku... only a HIGH KOO-KOO.

I always get something out of every blog you write.

You have remained one my artistic inspirations since the moment i met you.

Thank you.

Marc


And that's all until the next time we open "The Old Mailbag".
