About This Card

I believe that families should always communicate. This can, however, be a challenge when your only apparent relative is dead. Even though my Nanna isn’t with us anymore, conversations with her can get a bit one-sided; it’s hard to get a word in edgewise over her demented shrieking and wailing. My advice: when a loved-one dies, do not hire a witch doctor to be a funeral director.

from the newsletter

I regret it did not occur to me sooner that we could have tattooed onto my father’s body the following words, 'I buried the gold bars at the following map coordinates ...'
