For fanatics only

Way back when, during the years of series one (McKinley was President, if I recall correctly), we would announce each episode on the LD-L, which was the LD listserver where everyone who was anyone communicated with everyone else. Somewhere along the way we put the episodes up on the internet (if I'm remembering correctly; before that I think we just carved them on these gigantic stones and just hoped people would read them when they came back to the cave after the mastodon hunts) and put the announcement there as well. These announcements came to be known as the Epistles of St. Jules to the Forensicians. At least that's what they came to be known as to me and the Nostrumite. Back when Geocities (that's this place where you used to get free web space, which was exactly the amount of money the Mite and I were willing to pay) was going out of business, we pulled off all those epistles. The earliest ones were never captured, but the later ones where still there, plus a bunch of correspondence with our obnoxious adoring fans.

And now, they're back. We have scanned them in, and they're not exactly Vermeers, but they're readable. If you want to know what the Mite and I were up to ten years ago, when we were young and hale, now you will. We've put them onto the main Nostrum page, where The Original Series mainly resides. They're just a little below the fold, so to speak, so scroll down a bit.

Check it out. Or not. I've sort of browsed a little bit, and the worst thing is, we're still using all the same dumb jokes. Sorry about that.

  1. In this context, are epistles anything like email?
