Lying in the hospital with masses of burnt skin, Edgar had finally had
enough. He asked the nurse for some paper and wrote the following letter.
Dear Mr. Filibuster,
Though I have long been a fan of your wonderful "No Heat, Wet Start Fire Works" I felt it was time to bring to your attention the problems they cause, and propose a change.
May I remind you that *any* wetness will set off your fire works, this includes rain. Every time I try to carry your product out doors when its raining, no matter how small a rain drop that hits my pocket, it never ceases to cause your product to explode. Not a pleasant feeling, I may add.
So this is what I propose: a small plastic cover on the fuse. It needn't be very large or complicated, just a small cover to keep the fuse from getting wet before you wish it to. The cover would, of course, need to be removed before use, but I feel that its presence is necessary.
Once again, I would like to tell you how much I love your product and have supported it all these years (even through the 1997 slump).
Your faithful supporter,
Edgar Allen Poe
AN: Right well, no point at all, except to....well....nothing really, its just something I wrote a long time ago and found this morning and thought I would post it. So leave your comments if you wish, but please don't tell me it has no point, or that its dumb, etc, because yeah, I already know, thank you!
Oh and as a note to those of you who read my other fan fics, I am almost done with Chapter Sixteen of Heir, so don't worry, it will be up by the end of the week!
