And Our Mystery Saga Author Is... (Drumroll Please)

[linguist at LINGUISTLIST.ORG]

Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

When we told you we hoped to reach $44,000 by Monday
at 3:00, we thought we were shooting for the moon.
Weekends are often a time for rest, and it's hard to
maintain the same energy we have during the week. But
here we are with over $46,000! Apparently we reached the
stars on this goal.

So we want to maintain our end of the deal and introduce
the star for this week's saga story... Speculative
Grammarian! (http://specgram.com/)

For those of you who have tragically never encountered
the hilarious wit of SpecGram, they are regarded as "the
premier scholarly journal featuring research in the
neglected field of satirical linguistics." We know
this to be true. Because it says so on their website.
Whether or not you've followed SpecGram's work in the
past, you're in for a special treat this Friday.

We want this to be a fun, exciting week for everyone.
So for this week we have prizes, we have guest authors,
we have new limericks, AND we have a new lofty
goal. Can we reach $55,000 by Thursday at 3:00?

To follow the cheesy idiom theme for this letter (hey,
space is cool)... hitting such a major milestone so soon
would be stellar.

Help us make this another great week, and donate to
take part in the fun!

Gratefully yours,
The LINGUIST List Crew
