Recently on the net I've seen a few messages asking for money. The
senders supply such worthy reasons as education, feeding a starving
sister, and so on.
Taking advantage of this trend, I would like to ask you all for money,
too.
Of course, I do not need it. Apple Computer is a wonderful
employer; I have a very good salary, two-digit profit sharing, and an
excellent stock option. I am happily married to a wonderful
woman, Felicity, a Stanford graduate with a Masters in Horticulture.
Less than a year ago, I founded a Hi-IQ club which now has over 130
members around the world, including Marilyn vos Savant and
Christopher Harding, individuals recognized by the popular press as
having the highest IQ's in the world. I write essays and fiction for
various publications. I am 6'1" with blond hair and blue eyes and
good health. My future prospects look great.
But I want to have more fun. And I'll even give you something for
your money. After everyone has sent me money, I will promise to
have as much imaginative fun with it as I possibly can. Furthermore,
after I do, I will send everyone who has contributed to Grady's
Fun(d) a letter describing exactly how I "spent" my time.
So, you can be the keystone of my summer blowout, or you can
press "N" and go out for another desultory pizza tonight. Just fold a
twenty dollar bill in a sheet of paper with your return address and
send to:
Grady's Fun(d)
380 N. Bayview Avenue
Sunnyvale, CA 94086
It's going to be *party* time!
