i just googled myself.

one result that i didn't expect to see was a short note i wrote to videomaker magazine sometime in high school. who knew this was online? i think it must've been posted recently, or been indexed recently, because it's the first time i've seen it. and i was such a suck-up back then! i wrote equally silly letters to various comic books. the adventurous among you can dig up back issues of the incredible hulk and wolverine to find more of my pandering.

anyway, if you're not feeling adventurous enough to click the link, i've posted the letter here so we can all have a good laugh:

Of all the publications I receive in the mail, yours is the one I most look forward to reading.

As a high school student I often find my video skills coming into use. There is always an English project to complete or a video I can make with friends. Reading your magazine has helped me improve my video skills to an incredible degree. And my English projects are better than ever.
