Thanks for this, Daniel. That was a very good eight minutes.
 

Lynda, I have wanted to reach across the time and say hello to you ever since I was Production Manager of the Cooper Point Journal the year after you were there, and I found a cartoon in archives of a woman holding a cat with a paper cone over its nose facing another woman saying, "Explain to me again how dressing Norma like a chicken relates to Founder's Day."

I loved that so much. I wanted to publish it, but our editor said that would not be cool since you were then in Seattle selling your cartoons, and I guess she didn't know how to find you and ask permission.

So instead your poem has been blossoming in my mind since 1980.

I memorized it.

Thank you--
Victoria
