Dear Jack:

First thing in my Friday morning and… another treat! Marvin Monster included, poor Neurotic Norm suffering under the abuse of Marvin Monster. I am surprised Animal Abe is sharing biscuits (aka cookies) – Animal Anita (if I may copy your idea for just this purpose here) does not like to share food. Pious Pete is hilarious, as usual, “don’t be selfish” – of course it is his job to spoil any good time. I wonder if you, Jack, ate biscuits following that second part of the board meeting, I mean it makes sense, that was your motivation and you… arranged it so that you got the Ayes before you went for another biscuit, clever you…

As to your question if I think your level of insanity is above average: No, I don’t think so at all. The average of insanity is pretty insane though. It is interesting you ask this, i recently announced myself to myself mentally healthy only because on average I am. I don’t have to be anywhere CLOSE to being perfectly mentally healthy, I just have to be above average mentally healthy, and that is not such a challenge, hence: I am mentally healthy. I view you as not so disturbed at all, your humor is evidence of your mental health really, and that answers the second question in a way: only ONE person in the whole world would come up with this thread and that is why I am so fortunate to enjoy it. I was just tempted to copy your idea with my inner selves. How do you feel about it? Should I try or would that be sacrilegious?
