Response to "Fan Mail Part 1"

I received the following mail from Lion Kimbro after I posted the first installment in this section:

Delivery-date: Wed, 05 Nov 2003 13:24:27 -0800
Subject: Fan Mail Part 1
From: Lion Kimbro <lion@speakeasy.org>
To: Ron Hale-Evans <rwhe@apocalypse.org>

Re: "Too bad you don't":

The quote goes something like this:

"Behind every successful man, there's a woman rolling her eyes."
