Inherent Vice

[Dave Monroe]

Uh, that ZIP's 53203-0141 in full.  Did I mention that I've a sleep
disorder as well, and am writing to you whilst killing time before
undergoing Testing @ the nearby hospital?  Just so you know ...

My friend, Henry Musikar, by the way, may have written you as well on
behalf of a far needier friend.  Even if I'm not bookworthy, his
friend definitely is.  Though if you find yrself with TWO copies to
spare ...

Thanks again for yr kind consideration.  A bunch!
