Something easy, I figured, to start out with.

Mailing a penny to my officemate (B.E.J. Kok) ought to be right up my alley. It's her fault I'm here anyways.

I dig around in my desk and find an envelope. Pennies are in abundant supply - it's real money we lack.


The Letter.


You can see the penny through the envelope.




























You can clearly see the penny in the envelope when it is held up to the light.

Note also the cactus.































The delivered letter.


As it is considered interoffice mail, no stamp was required. I did run down to the mailroom and put it in her mailbox, and then retrieve it, just to make it legit.































The recipient opens the letter.

Notice the soul-sucking atmosphere of the hallway behind our office.  Welcome to academia.































And, touchdown!

Notice the smile of joy! Her day has been made.
