Tuesday

A letter to Merv Griffin

Greetings Mr. Griffin,

As you know, I made a reference to you in an earlier post as a less-popular talk show host.  I apologize for this faux-criticism. I only did it to stroke the ego of Oprah Winfrey and convince her that I am worthy of a guest slot on her show. As an aside, someone in my entourage has just informed  me that you are dead. I did not know this and would like to take this opportunity to apologize to you, your family and friends for my indiscretion. One question: If you were alive, would you book me on your show? If your answer is yes, I will use it as more ammo in my efforts to persuade Ms. Winfrey. 

I'll be waiting for your reply!
