I sense a reprise of Apple's "What Do You Have on Your Powerbook?"
campaign:

        * lists of medicine cabinet contents
        * lists of contents of pockets of Bessie's OTHER housedress
        * forty drafts of second novel
        * notes for third novel
        * thirty revised final drafts of second novel
        * nine more stories
        * lists of unlisted phone numbers for all my friends
        * first draft of third novel
        * outlines for fourth, fifth, and sixth novels
        * copy of Pretty Good Privacy
        * last five years' worth of letters, encrypted
        * fourteen koans, with answers
        * seven koans, without answers
        * working draft of sixth novel
        * contract with Orchides Press for 1999 publication
          of "Hapworth," with requests to delay until after
          the millenium
        * record of correspondance with Thomas Pynchon
        * bibliography of the complete works of L. Manning Vines
          (or Hinds)

        -- J.D. Salinger, reclusive writer and Powerbook owner

OK, I guess I'm silly today. It must be the spring air and a day of
exercise and sun that have made me fall into this madness.
