Best Letter Ever
Over on the blog That Canadian Girl, a post appears about a friend of the blogger who recently drained a pond behind his new house and found a very odd letter. Many commenters find the humor in this, but then of course, there are those who find something to argue about. You'll find cries of "omg you destroyed the pond" and "shut up, it was for the children!" And of course, "your spelling sux!" Enjoy!

One of the coolest things that's happened to me lately had to do with a mall remodel near here- they took the ugly sandstone boulder facing off the exterior, and there, under it, in huge looping carpenter's pencil text were notes on dimensions and wiring cuts in my father's handwriting. He'd worked on the building in 1962 or so, and has been dead now for more than a decade, and it was a blast from the past in the nicest way possible.

I love those kinds of Easter eggs. I lost my father four years ago; last month, my mother, sisters and I were going to refinish a table that he'd built for us years ago. We'd stripped off the paint and had started sanding when we discovered his handwritten plans on one of the boards that made of the surface. They had me trace all of it with the wood burner so that when they put the varnish over it, it'd stand out and be preserved in a place where we could all see it.
