Exhibit 3.9

I'm not going to say any more about my sunburn. Except that sometime between eleven and noon I successfully shed my skin. I took the skin and filled it with receipts for things I've purchased recently and leaned this mannequin against the wall. All day, people have been stopping by to hug it.

I just realized that yer next post is going to be Exhibit 3.10, which is the same mathematically as Exhibit 3.1, which is yet another football roundup, and so you'd be much better off starting off new um rounds? of exhibits with, like, 4.01, so that there are no redundancies.

Here's the thing, Dusty--if that is your real name (and it's not)--the numbers are actually a cataloging system. 3.1 = "Three-One" while 3.10 = "Three-Ten."

Yes, I hate it too. No, I can't remember why I ever thought it was a good idea.

In any case, please adjust your subvocalization accordingly.

But what happens when you need to make an Excel spreadsheet of all your posts and sort them alphabetically by topic and then back into chronologically by exhibit number? Excel will put 3.21 before 3.3, and then where will you be?

You're going to have to include a column for date of entry, with a second column for time, probably.
