Question for the hivemind: I lost contact with my best highschool friend about eight years ago, and recently am resolved to get a hold of her again. Of course, now that I want to find her, I think her phone number is unlisted. However, I have definitely tracked down her brother (his real estate homepage has an excellent photo, so I know it's him for sure). Should I send him an e-mail, asking for Kathy's phone number/e-mail, or would that be too strange? I knew him fairly well, so he'll recognize my name.

I just feel weird about contacting him out of the blue.

I don't think it is weird, but what I would do is ask him to pass along your email to her, rather than asking him for her info.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I don't think it is weird, but what I would do is ask him to pass along your email to her, rather than asking him for her info.
This seems like a good way to do it. He might just send hers, but nice if he has the option of forwarding the info to her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I don't think that would be weird at all.

I just had my first shredding error. Some time and tape, and I'm simultaneously glad I didn't get the confetti kind, and wondering how useful this kind actually is.

I have an entire book of U.S. Embassy documents shredded before the flight from Tehran and painstakingly put back together by the revolutionaries. It's really kind of neat, but yeah, not so sure how useful that sort of shredder is if someone actually makes the effort.

Thanks for the help! Now, to compose the e-mail. We were down to really only talking to each other once or twice a year, particularly on our birthdays (one day apart), but one year that phone call never got placed and we haven't talked to each other since.
