Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I like all of the letters. I am sort of annoyed on the letter writers' behalves that they were writing to a liar. I dunno, just doesn't sit well with me that the guy was acting like a kid. It takes the fun out of it (for me).

DH would love the Shining clock.

We looked into satellite internet before cable was available in the Adirondacks. The problem was that the upload speed wasn't fast enough for our purposes and there was some reason it wouldn't work for VPN connections which we needed too. I don't know if those issues have resolved in the last few years.

It kinda bugged me too, but I'm glad the letter writers have nothing to be ashamed of (well, I mean, in the writing of the letters anyway).

I see your point on the letters, javachik. And yet I now want to read all of the responses. I wonder if he had to get permission from all the suckers respondents before publishing.

Because books.

I haven't read the letters yet, but it is sort of an interesting experiment, finding out what someone will say to a kid that they won't say to an adult, or vice versa.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm not sure if it was in that link, but in a previous article I saw about this guy, they printed a letter he got from Richard Ramirez, which had a stylized "Nightstalker" logo on the stationary.

I just saw a commercial for a new show, "Hoarding: Buried Alive." So now there are two shows about hoarders?

I think that version of Hoarding takes place in Miami, and is shot with a different camera filter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's Hoarding: Orange.
