to my mystery donor

Today, I got a package from a bookstore in Brooklyn. It contained a copy of Shadows Over Baker Street, a collection of stories about Sherlock Holmes's encounters with Cthulhu and the other Elder Gods. I did not order this book, although I wanted it. It was delivered to "Ric Signes."

I am so confused! Who are you? I would like to thank you.


right here.

As I say whenever anyone asks "Who lost the (watch|phone|expensive pen)?": "Yeah, right here, that's me".

Unless of course, you were hoping it was a cute girl, then it's not me (cute or girl).

I called the bookstore, whose machine said, "We only accept calls between three and five." I called back around four o'clock, and the clerk tracked down the order for me.

It was my father-in-law, who bought the book through Amazon. Thanks, father-in-law!

Does your wife have an unmarried sister by any chance?
