1:03:38 PM former orker: have you heard of Flat Stanley, the children's book?
1:03:53 PM zendonut: No?
1:04:30 PM former orker: the story is Stanley gets squashed flat by a bulletin board that falls on him while he's sleeping. the nice side-effect is he can be folded up and mailed around the world
1:04:38 PM former orker: (there is a tie in, wait for it)
1:05:17 PM former orker: my cousin's 3rd(?) grade class all made flat versions of themselves and mailed them to relatives who were supposed to make a photo documentary of them doing stuff
1:05:43 PM former orker: so my cousin picked me, and we took lots of pictures around town and at work (ICCB robots!)
1:05:57 PM former orker: i SO wanted a picture with some freaky thing from the warren exhibits
1:06:02 PM former orker: but, no photos allowed. bleh.
1:08:19 PM zendonut: That's great!
1:08:56 PM former orker: if you are REALLY bored: http://photo.miranda.org/flatmeredith200504

and i forgot to mention his tour of graceland, his delorean convention attendance, his ride on coney island's the cyclone, his run up the stairs at the PMA ala Rocky, playing a baby grand piano at juilliard, and his happenstance meeting with flat lindsey, dining at another table in a restaurant in virgina (other people had a flat kid in attendance that night, hilarity and matchmaking ensued). flat arthur has led an incredible life. when next i visit, i will make you look at all the pictures.
