Dear commune:
I got drunk last night. But wait, I’m not writing with good news.
Me and my girlfriend went out to eat and I think I hit her. She shattered into a million pieces
and I couldn’t even see her head no more. It freaked the hell out of me.
What do I do? I’m thinking about running to Mexico, but since I live in Florida it would be
a long run. If I turn myself in, will I get the chair? Is it legal to do something illegal as long as
you are drunk?

Dear Donnie:
We at the commune do not condone violence against women, unless they are in some sort
of pro-wrestling outfit, or are Diana Ross. We are sympathetic with your plight, yet
sickened by your very existence.
You should immediately go to the police and face whatever punishment will be handed
down to you. It may be harsh, but it is necessary. It does not take a man to hit a woman,
but it does take a man to face the consequences, and it takes two or more men to change a
lightbulb, we understand.
Also, you may want to verify that you have not hit a giant Frisch’s Big Boy statue or some
other order-taking fast food restaurant device. In cases where a victim’s head shatters into
a million pieces, this is often the first thing overlooked.

Dear commune:
I have two questions.
1) Can you tell me more about the history of styling mousse?
2) Have you always run the Red Bagel column in the commune?
Thanks.
Chazz Harlan

Dear Chazz:
1) No.
2) Yes. The Red Bagel column has run since day one of the commune,
yet it may have been overlooked as it's been written in tiny
subscript within the commune logo, so as not to be read by the
government. We then realized nobody else was reading it either, so
we took the bold move of putting it in normal size letters on a
page, just like the other columns which nobody is reading.
You’re welcome.

Dear commune:
I have recently purchased a cell phone and I’m worried about getting
cancer of the head. I don’t even know what kinds of head cancer
there are out there. I want the least terminal kind, or failing
that, none at all.
I’m not sure if the cell phone even works. Sometimes I call from a
tunnel, I get static, sometimes I get Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Not
a recording or radio broadcast, the whole band. Sure, it’s nice
asking them where they came up with the riff for “China Grove,” but
they tell me that was the Doobie Brothers anyway and quit calling
them. It confounds me.
You know what else confounds me? Cereal. I’m not sure why we should
eat it with milk and why we eat soup with water. I don’t suppose
anyone’s figured that out.

Dear “Weak Hat”:
Well, you see… uhm… did you actually ask a legitimate question?
