Letters To The Editor

Nobody has written to Blogging From Jail yet, as this is only the second entry into what will hopefully be a long run of hard-hitting, politically-aroused discussions about music, film, and colored people. However, we did make an open call on the internet for anyone to write in questions about our publication based on the ideas constructed by our crack marketing team for what the zine would end up being. Here is what we have had time to respond to so far.

Dear Blogging From Jail,
I heard you guys were talking about Reagan in this print-zine (we were going to be a print zine before we found out about the 'net. -Ed) of yours and I am not pleased with this idea because I did not vote for that man and I do not think Americans anywhere would have voted for him if he ran again. The man has alshimers (sic) and I think he is the wrong man to lead this country. Please do not write about him or any other man with brain problems who the hell does Reagan think he is.

Thanks guys I hope this gets printed,
Col. James T. Krauser (Retired)


James,
I assume you are referring to the late ex-president Ronald Reagan. He is dead, and will not be running for office again in the future. You'll be happy to know that our planned feature on him was cut as per your request.

Dear Blogging From Jail,
Tape is the new thing, and your magazine needs to get on the bandwagon! Adhesives are the new wave! Too many magazines are about cars, and books, and women, and magazines, and you guys could be writing about the glue that sticks our society together!

My father was an adhesive man, and so was my grandfather! Please represent the under-represented!

Cap. Milton S. Krauser (Retired)


Milton,

Are you related to Corporal Krauser? How strange, to receive letters from not one, but two decorated members of our armed forces! And possibly members of the same family!

To answer your inquiries, we must sadly note that Blogging From Jail will stay firmly focused on political issues. We would like to keep our pages (Web pages, now. -Ed) open to a broader discussion than limiting ourselves to adhesive and similar topics would allow. This does not mean we will avoid adhesive-related issues. For example, airplanes are held together by airplane glue; I am sure there is someone, somewhere, who wants to ban airplane glue simply because certain parties enjoy to inhale it to experience an altered state. That is the kind of topic that Blogging From Jail would see fit not only to print (online -Ed), but to proselytize through each and every medium at our disposal, of which there are several (Now just this blog. -Ed).


Dear Blogging From Jail,
I'm real happy to hear that magazines are still how the world likes to read -- this upcoming magazine of yours has just the kind of spry moxie to remind people that paper is the only kind of reading you can trust! I just wanted to thank you, and plead with you not to print this on the internet (Jews) or on some kind of suspicious film-paper (could be the Jews -- I need to check my papers for that). Normal tree paper will do.

Signed,
Cap. James "Jimmy" L. Krauser (Retired)


Jimmy,

I'm sorry to say that we have shifted our plans, and Blogging From Jail has changed from an ironically-titled print zine to an actual blog. I hope you will stay safe as you contemplate this shift in paradigm.

That's it for our letters! Please, send more, once we have the password recovered on our e-mail address.

Yours truly,
