A Public Apology to Mr Phil “Terrorkitten” Bebbington,
whose witty and tongue-in-cheek comment on my Show and Tell: Ephemera (I) post I undermined by my tone-deaf follow-up comments.
Mr Bebbington’s comment was clever and (moderately) subtle and English. My response was that of an American chick with an intellect subtle as a flying mallet.
“Hunh? Whaddya mean? Whaddya talkin’ about? I don’t GET it!”
Mr Bebbington, I apologize for having lowered the tone of discourse, and I do hope we will be seeing you* ’round these parts again soon.
With profound respect, I remain

Don’t sell yourself too short, American woman.
Oh, fear not. That I would never do.
But one must accept reality. I am, after all, scarcely over 5′ 3″.
Haha. Back to the American surface chick. Clever you.
