According to info on their site, Lettersofnote.com collects various pieces of individual correspondence-- letters, postcards, telegrams, faxes, memos-- that its editors believe should be seen by the global masses.

Mr. S will tell you a little about the "tragedy of fame." Try getting dropped by your movie studio and from your TV show, disappearing on the Down Beat poll, losing your mouse, er, I mean, girl, and then you open your mouth one night at the Copa and nothing comes out.

Come on, George, Loosen up.
