Ode.

I like to write.
It's a hobby of mine.
But I'm not much of a writer.
I have trouble with my similes, like a duck eating fudge.
"and I'm absolutely awful at dialogue" I said with a smirk.

Despite that I created www.shoppe.ca
and nobody visited.
I wrote provocatively
and nobody commented.
I put up pictures of my handsome face,
but nobody syndicated, digg'd, or de.icio.us'd me.
I get only a handful of hits per week.
Hey, I understand - this ain't no YouTube after all.

Now I also like to keep in touch with friends and family.
Both of you.
But one of you doesn't want the other to know your email address.
And I just don't have the energy to write to both of you.
But I don't want to lose touch with you either.
So what to do? (but you know already :-)

I wrote a program.
I call it ShoppeBurner.
It runs every morning at 3AM.
If it sees something new on shoppe.ca
it sends it to you as an email.
Despite what one of you says, it's not spam.
It's nicer looking than a regular e-mail,
and it's my way of trying to keep in touch with you.

If you don't want to continue receiving it,
I would first ask you - "why?"
then I would recommend you reconsider,
or I may hack into your bank account.
It's a hobby of mine.
But I'm not much of a hacker...

Ode.
