		<description>&lt;p&gt;I don't know what you're looking for here.  What the hell is photoshop?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you're looking for a writer, well I can do that...  It's sorta an east coast-bad vibe-shitty karma style, but i can do it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here is an example of a letter I sent to Lowcard Rag:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;///////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hamid,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to ya.  I just got done shelling out a bunch of $$$ to the local zoning board.  They strong armed me into getting a variance for our shop.  The letter they sent went something like this:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dear Mike,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We realize that due to the shitty economy, now is probably the worst time since the Great Depression to extort money from a new small business such as yours.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Either pay us money, or we close your shop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To show our appreciation for your money, we'll send you a piece of paper that's just a touch too rough to wipe your ass with.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sincerely,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Bloomfield Zoning Board&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;p.s.  Hope your kids have enough to eat.  We know how rough it is out there.  : )&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-TBZB&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;so...  now that's over and done with (didn't even get a reach around) I can get back to the business of doing business.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I think I got the lowdown on Lowcard from Reija.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What I need to know is when I get an order worked up for ya, how do I pay ya?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cash?  Credit Card?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Anyhow...  let me know and I'll get an order off to you just as soon as the Federal Govt. bails out my bank.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;P.S. The easiest way to get a-hold of me is by email.  I detest cell phones... damn things... with the constant ringing and vibrating and brain cancer.  I'm not much of a talker anyways.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-Mike&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;//////////////////////////////////////////////////////&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I could write up some product reviews for ya as I get new stuff in, both new and old school- give you the ups and downs of owning a skateshop in a very conservative farming community (the Amish don't live too far off and I swear the KKK runs the next town over)- and well, just be downright annoying&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The first contribution I could send you is an email battle royal I had with my NHS rep. when he sent me the wrong stuff.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let me know.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-Mike&lt;/p&gt;
