2002-02-21 5:34 p.m. My ne'er-do-well brother-in-law has taken to the sea. I received a telegram from him wherein he claimed that his ship had landed on a small island where fish were considered currency. He was able to trade a particularly large marlin for a pair of pants and received four small perch as change. He claims that the women on this island are all incredibly beautiful. Also, he claims that the men are also incredibly beautiful. Being at sea for such long periods may be affecting his judgement, he wrote. As such, he's also having trouble determining if his purchased pants suit him at all. For me, I was amazed that anyone still sends telegrams. I didn't think they existed anymore. |
