Was idly browsing through a defunct mail account I used to use 5 years ago, when I came upon some mails from an old would-be suitor. Squirrel Man.A cheery chap with a swarthy-baby aspect, he used to be my classmate in one of the many patently pointless courses I took during my then-frequent stints of unemployment -- a break-neck course on editing, which, within months, sought to acquaint me with corel draw, illustrator, photoshop, image ready, authorware, director, and a strange 3-d software that seemed to do nothing but emit teapots, despite my most determined twiddling. Squirrel Man sat beside me many a sleepy morning as attacks of drowsiness jerked me forward, or had me squiggling off the book and on to my desk. Having chanced upon my mail id in the register, he began to send me some quite coy overtures, of which I now present you some excerpts..
dear shru,
only after coming back to my room it occured to me that you may be having some unknown doubts about the contents of my previous mail.what type of doubt it is.what that "message" you really intended to know from my mail.what that was?.let me know. Know onething about me very well.Things around me is so complex so that i cannot afford to keep anything hidden.If i try to do so then i will become so top heavy so that my head will fall down ultimately. There is no any hidden message.O.K. nothing more to add. eat very well.take care. bye for now. Your's, SM

Shru Shru, eh? Grow a beard, and you can start yourself an Art of Living for dandies and models in which registrants get to do calisthenics in accompaniment to electronic music.
And really, Shru Shru, you must start eating some more. Bony is sooo out of style...
:P

The Taming of the Shru Shru
Reminds me of a barely-educated gentleman who wooed my sis once through snail mail.
Hope you have heeded his advice and taken care of your diet.
btw, what was he trying to fatten you up for - the final kill?
Times like these, I almost apologize for my gender.
You should get a medal.
Oh darling! And you actually posted these things???? Trust you to make an absolutely annoying story and turn it into a funny one!
