## I’m not sure, does this mean I’ve been mentioned? I’ve never been mentioned in a thread like this before, so I wanted to check and make sure. Also to inquire about proper protocol in such a situation.

**Kat** , you were one of the specific deities I had in mind at the time of writing. You may consider yourself officially mentioned.

The usual protocol is to mail me $20 and an incriminating photo of yourself.

Thanks,

Woohoo! _marks date on calendar_

Incriminating in what manner, exactly? I’m not sure I have one.

I imagine a picture of you sitting on a fence and screaming at 3AM, maybe knocking over some garbage cans, or getting caught in the catnip would be incriminating enough…

And we should mention that Leo Kottke made pluto the unique persion he is. It could have been Jerry Garcia, or Jorma Kaukonen, but it wasn’t.
