Dear Jack,
So very good to hear from you.
Please try not to be disappointed, but no - I have never given proper consideration to appearing on American Idol (thanks for asking). I did take a few moments over coffee this morning to float the idea though. My wife tells me that she already idolizes me too much and that further idolatry mongering on my part would only serve to cheapen myself and perhaps even damage the fragile ego of others. Besides, it would cut into my already foreshortened time on the golf course.
I do admit to a level of curiosity though. Having never hear sing, or seen my formidable skills on the dance floor, of what talent were you considering? Cunning linguist perhaps?
Do write back soon old bean. These correspondences are to few.
