Dear Larry Sprinkle,

Thank God, I’ve finally tracked you down! Back in December of 2008 I wrote the Ty-D-Bol people and asked if they could send me your autographed photo, but they never wrote back. That’s just plain mean of them! (See if I ever buy their product again.)

I even gave them a great marketing idea, but they totally ignored me! Ziploc is no longer using the slogan, “yellow and blue makes green,” so I thought they should look into licensing it. That idea is gold. Ignoring it is like leaving money on the table. Oh well, their loss.

When I was a kid one of my friend’s mom had a sign on the bathroom wall that said:

If you sprinkle
when you tinkle,
be a sweetie
and wipe the seatie.

I thought you might get a kick out of that, what with your name being Sprinkle and all. Well, that’s all I’ve got.

It took me a while, but I’m so excited I’ve finally found you. When possible I find it’s best to go straight to the source! I should never have started with the Ty-D-Bol people! So what do you say, can you have one of your assistants pop one of your headshots into an envelope and send it to the above address? (After you’ve scrawled something inspirational over your name of course.) I’d really appreciate it.

Long time fan, first time writer.

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
