How to reach me

• Don't send HTML mail.

• Never send ``electronic greeting cards.'' Believe it or not, I used to know this girl who sent a couple of those a week when we were arguing. I probably got about half of them because I thought they were spam.

• Don't message me on blogs, web forums, portals, social networking sites, or anywhere else besides email where I have to pull your message down. I'll probably never see it. ``You have a new private message!'' translates inside my brain to ``You may have already won!''

• It's pretty easy to find my cel number, but please don't call it if I haven't given it to you.

• In other words, the way to reach carton is to send mail. Why do I bother having this page at all? I don't know.

• If you aren't in the mood for that, maybe you can use one of the two gateways to email provided by j2.com. These guys are the same as jfax and efax. It converts your phone message or fax into a plain email that I can view or play without any retarded Windows-only tools. But why not send email instead?
  • Fax +1 419 715-0217.

  • Voicemail: +1 419 715-0217

    Sometimes I don't listen to voicemail for months, or at all.

Plan:
They don't feel a thing there, Cam thought, looking at the shore, which, 
rising and falling, became steadily more distant and more peaceful.  Her 
hand cut a trail in the sea, as her mind made the green swirls and 
streaks into patterns and, numbed and shrouded, wandered in imagination 
in that underworld of waters where the pearls stuck in clusters to white 
sprays, where in the green light a change came over one's entire mind and 
one's body shone half transparent enveloped in a green cloak.
