Today is Fan Mail Friday on Tuesday #5

Having extended our "Fan Mail Friday #n" featurette to Tuesday, The Supreme Aglet humbly submits this observation from Agleteer Roger.

New computers are fun, but they don't save you any money on car insurance. Why haven't you called Geico?

Agleteer Roger, your question caused me to rethink a number of things. Thanks to your thoughtful query, I now dial my cell phone with my left hand, eat lunch a half hour earlier, and speak with an English accent.

This is a watershed moment in the life of The Supreme Aglet, and my readership is witnessing it unfold right before their very eyes. I am a caterpillar becoming a butterfly, a Cadillac at the end of the production line, pasta that has soaked eight minutes--I am al dente.

I suppose you're expecting some sort of reward for having initiated this important alteration in my life path, but you see, I am also now becoming much more frugal and have thus decided to withhold the $10,000 check I was about to send you, and the world of the Supreme Aglet is once again in perfect balance.
