Activity Report No. VII: You Should Know a Nut

Brought to you by The People's Peaceable Assembly Line

Ed. note: What follows are from a series of letters that have been written to Norm, the man behind the Department of Homeland Security's tip line. You are sure to see more of these in the future.

Dear Norm,

                          I thought you should know, not

that there's anything inherently suspicious, per se,

in such conduct, that there is a round-headed

man with wispy hair standing out there

between the mailbox and the road, with

a wistful, dreamy gleam in his eye,

almost, arguably, the shine of religious fervor,

as though he'd just whetted his evangelical

blade on fresh scripture, consecrating it to blood,

or was a prospective pipe bomber casing the place,

or lying in wait, a disgruntled postal

customer, for the carrier to arrive.

If you should ask him, he will just say

here I am, waiting for a letter from

that cute red-headed girl, but I

have not asked him. I see that he is surely

a nut, intent on orchestrating a great grief.

Please act before it is too late!

             Yours, in liberty,

             Terrified in America.
