- This is a warning to anyone interested in ordering from the "Exposures"
- catalog (they sell photo albums, frames, and expensive decorating stuff.)
- Since ordering from them we've received just about every expensive, snooty,
- home decor catalog on the face of the earth. They're coming at the rate of
- around five a day now. I strongly urge you to request them not to sell your
- name - unless of course, you want 25 new catalogs a week. We're on a fair
- number of mailing lists, but I've never seen anything like this deluge before.
-
- I've also found them to be seriously overpriced and not worth the money, but
- that's just my opinion.

- to burst forth." -- Wally Shawn, on the writing of "My Dinner With Andre'"
