Except I didn't get a $50 bill. I got [I]Benjamins. [/I] Yes, Benjamins, [I]plural.[/I] And they were real. This mysterious benefactor is known only as "The Quarter Master", and somehow he knew I had been laid off. (Obviously reads these forums.) So it seems he wanted to help (the letter said as much).

No, I don't know his true identity either, though I've gotten some nice letters. If the guy is gonna throw Benjamins at me anonymously, I won't complain about that. I know some of y'all are spooked and suspicious, but I think it's sincere and all in good fun. Just the other day, I found an unopened Quarter Notes letter in my briefcase, which had arrived [I]before[/I] my layoff at work. In the subsequent hoopla, it got shunted aside with some junk mail.
