Isn't that Doc Savage?
You say that like it being Doc Savage would make the statement less true...
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
So, you wear your Damascus steel blade with your watered silk coat, and are divinely gorgeous and deadly, right?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

ooh maybe natter people can help me! I'm trying to find some sort of theatre-related baby things for my actress friend whose baby girl is due mid-May. And she hates the Tragedy & Comedy mask image.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Just verifying.
We are now firmly in Geek Territory. We are faced wit the age-old question:
Who would win in a fight, Iron Man or Doc Savage, Man of Bronze?

For some reason I am now imagining a line of babyware with black and white images of Stanislavski, Uta Hagen, Sandford Meisner, etc on them. But unfortunately I have no suggestions, other than I think most theatre people I have met, including myself, hate the comedy tragedy masks!

See! That would be awesome!!!
The thing is her husband is a rollerderby ref whose derby name is Johnny Zebra so they are going to be getting a ton of zebra-related baby things. (Including from me! SUPER cute things from Crazy 8.) So, I wanted there to be some non derby-related presents for the baby.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or even more epic - the fight between the British and the Americans over how to pronounce Aluminum Man.

Who the letter is to, what the tone should be. I'm going to give it a shot with:
Hi! I am writing regarding the building at ____. I'm sure that you're tired of seeing it get more and more run down. We have purchased the building, and would like to renovate it, but the building is zoned commercial, and we need it to be residential. We will be applying for a zoning variance to change the type of zone, but we need your support to clean up the building and make it a nice place to live and look at. [include language about how to sign a petition or whatever you're doing]
Thanks for making the neighborhood a better place!
sincerely,
[whoever]
