Record-breaking Christmas letter--top this one!
Edited on Tue Jan-04-05 01:32 PM by bif
My wife's boss just received a Christmas letter from a friend that's 23 pages long! Is that overkill or what? It even includes some of the books he's read. Wow!

1. Is the letter-writer a blowhard in real life?
23 pages? Sheesh!

2. Tell them to get a publisher.
I probably wouldn't read page one of something like that.

3. Twenty-three pages?
I've written short stories much shorter than that.

I enjoy Christmas letters, but really - like a resume, they should be kept to one page.
