Dear Froiklischer,

Where is that report I asked for on the so-called Deadly Scroll? Did you get the scoop?

Dear Adnauseum,

I didn't have the impression you were that interested, so I sold the piece to a little Mesopotamian press. Part sale, part trade, actually. They're supposed to send me some filmclips on grapes. But here's the Scroll thing if you want it.

one ancient maiden lies dead, one sits reading

The Deadly Scroll [Philosopheia Natura Mathematicus Musika Galacticon Constitabularium for Scroll, Vol. Six: Of Figs]

Not even the steamy wooing scenes hastily inked in by the publisher of Digressini's Alternate History of Figs could cure the lethal dullness of this verbose volume. It wasn't a question of whether the reader's system would shut down; it was simply a question of which page the body would be found draped across. Although many sought the glory of being first to reach "The End," none ever made it. The Author himself expired before arriving at a conclusion. The massive scroll, long thought to have been destroyed in the regionally famous "Attack of a Thousand Scissors," was recently hauled up out of an urn by some *hole with the Annenberg Project. The content is being digitized and is scheduled for worldwide dissemination to coincide with the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012.

If there are no further questions. . .
