: Mr. Smith:
: Hi. In my atttempts to contact you I have found this my best resort.
: So I Registered and got my e-mail and have a password and read the stuff about what to do and not to do i.e don't be stupid or don't speak/look directly to/at MR SMITH and don't act generally insane and stalky or MR SMITH'S goons (Staff) will remove your ass from the list. So I can, I assume, try to speak with MR SMITH through this forum. 'AS I think GOOD FUCKING LUCK.' God I hate the caps lock.
: So I am obviously (or not) by my screen name a girl/woman. I found these/your movies with the help of my current SO who thinks they are pretty cool. I had only seen Chasing Amy on my own, at a friends proding of "hey there are lesbians in that film. You like lesbians don't ya?' So I do, so I did. And it was cool. I, never knowing that there were other movies of the like. That's were the boy comes in. The boy = SO.
: Anyway, he is like the bestest, coolest nicest Gameboy/comic bookjunky/buyer of things I cannot understand/Con going boy/man I have every met. Changed my whole fucking life the night we met. Didn't know it then, though. (PS I don't usually type in fuck so many times but I thought Mr. Smith may see them and wax familiar and read my post:-)) See, I was your typical mundane, chic. I was working, thinking of going back to school, had set plans and ideas about who I should hang with and who I should marry. Then, well, reality set in and I started catering to the darker side of my personality ie sci-fi chanel, sopranos and mac-n-cheese. Realizing that sometimes the one you are supposed to be with drives you insane and well annoys the fuck out of you, made me give this man a chance.
: So we hooked up and the rest is very odd history.
: So We have been together for about two years. I really love him and alot of our best times involve the crazy movies you make, and comic books. You seem to understand the whole cargo shorts/t-shirt/hoody wearing/comic book reading/boy meets different kinda girl thing. And well the boy thinks you spout gospel. I just think you are cool, attractive and funny (dude I know you have a wife and kid, and I hope you guys are insainly happy. But you have a marketing angle here;-) Work it, like a NY Drag Queen.) By the way speaking of marketing you should sell the hell out of those Batman baseball hat things with ears. I'd bye one and where it everyday. But I'd wear cat ears to work if I could. (BTW I am in Nursing School and can wear whatever the hell I want but in a hospital wearing ears gets one locked up and medicated)
: So we may never marry (but who knows), but I want to give him something cool. So here it is, what you knew was coming, the point. I wrote to ya here, to see if you could mail me some standard punk ass fan club shit that you signed. Even if you e-mailed me back I'd have something to frame up and give him. Not one of those damn auto responses you get when you bitch to the president about fucked up laws he is trying to sneak by us, though. But maybe a nice 'hi I read your post say hi to the boy', or something.
: It really isn't for me. It is just that he has been so cool to me. I, like almost everyone else, come from a fucked up family. Mine maybe more than most. And this man goes to Thanksgiving with me and my crazy family. For example: I told him one day when we where talking about the crazyness of all the shit we wore as kids being sold in stores for way too much money, and how freaky it was to have lived long enough to see your screwed up Idea of alternative cool come back in style, that I at least am happy that I derive joy from seeing Strawberry shortcake on tee shirts because well she was the cool toy I had before I was old enough to realize how fucked up my parents were. She and her cat custard remind me of a happy place and time. ***Insert potentially crazy fan intro music here.*** So I was getting a e-mail from his account from one of our friends and the Boy had gone to e-bay and bid on a Stuffed Cat, like strawberry shortcake's. My Birthday is coming and he knows 28 yrs will be the reminder that I only have a little more to go till 30. Like you said you never thought you'd be buying kid milk in you twenties. I thought I'd have a degree by now. It is all realative. Anyway the boy is unbeatable and I wanna give him something cool. I don't value him enough or show him I listen when he rambles on, enough. So if you could find the time I would really appreciate it.
: After reading you comic book tale of your first kiss/meeting with your wife I thought you might be the kinda guy who'd understand. but I know you are hugely busy. BTW your kid is cute and so is your wife,;-> in very different ways.
: So thanks for taking the time to read this, If you did. If not well nothing lost.
: And for all those 12 yr. old reading this. Don't respond you assholes it isn't posted to you.
: Anyway,If you do respond in any way I will pay you back by seeing your movie with many friends again, and buying your others on DVD, K?
: Thanks anyway,
