An email from one of our (my) international readers:

Dear Mr. Furious,

As a loyal reader of the website/blog, I feel very unsatisfied recently. Every time I go in search of my daily anger catalyst I come out empty. I, and all your readers deserve more posts! We need more reasons to shake our heads at the world and its absurd idiosyncrasies. Start writing more!

Yours truely,

Vadim the Avshalumov Dream

To which I respond…

Thank you, Mr. Dream, for your letter. I have sent you a “The Furious Romantic” T-shirt in the mail as a peace offering. I don’t have your address, though, so I sent it to your cousin Hakeem Olajuwon. I hope that he’ll be able to get it to you sometime soon.

I assure you that I am still angered, everyday, by the idiosyncrasies of the world (particularly the Western World). But Big Project continues to dominate my life and I do not have much time to stew and/or boil over - even in the face of so much silliness. Soon I will return full force, to catalyze and to entertain, but for now…

…just do what I do when you find your temperature rising. Drink and pursue beautiful things.

Until the next time,

The Furious Romantic

Boom.
