This is an urgent request for Miss Leia Alligator to be John The Dog's first digital interviewee for his new weekly posting at www. emergingthoughts. com. You may recall that my human friend Andrew interviewed you for the Scene. I assure you, this will be far more absurd and enjoyable (and its through email). Holla back ASAP if you're interested.
