: Dear High and Esteemed King
: My gripe is not with you. You have endeavored to be fair with me and let me cry to my heart's content.
: However, my last cry in LOTMLand, encouraged by my heart and ordered by the Publicant aka Tax Collector, has fallen upon deaf ears.
: Indeed, no one has shown up at Bumppo's to discuss/debate/dissect/praise a certain work of literature, penned by a longtime LOTMLand resident. This resident, who is an extremely talented scribe and who has terrific insight into the era LOTMLLand is all about, has preferred to remain anonymous, and now, I can see why.
: True, there was a long weekend, but the Publicant informs me that this is not a good enough excuse, for the long weekend has come and gone,we are all back, head-count is almost perfect with the exception of Bill R. and Seamus, the weekend posts/crys are prominent on the TowneSquare, and still no one at Bumppo's!
: I hear that the Publisher of the establishment called The Rose, will ring her own bell this Saturday morn, inviting all and sundry to Bumppo's starting Sunday afternoon.
: But this is the Publisher, and it beats me why this person would like to ring a bell, considering mine has fallen upon deaf ears before!
: My dear King, I have sworn and wowed and decided to repair myself to a quiet corner under No Man's Tree to meditate upon Magua's charms versus Eden's Winter. To be fair to the issue on hand, I shall have Magua's poster as well as the tome-in-the-works, in the center of my vision whilst I ping-pong the mysteries of sex and the printed word.
: Yours truly and ever so humbly,
: Currently Ex ye Olde TowneCrier
