What handwriting analysis would say about mine

[The envelope, please: Exhibit A nearly went to Corporate]

I was just about to mail Chief Ethics Officer Barbara Wall a hard copy of my letter about CEO Craig Dubow. But then I noticed my long-neglected handwriting -- and imagined what might happen next.

  2. For Christ's sake, join the 21st century and send the envelope through a printer. With that kind of scrawl, your letter is going to get detoured to the mail-baking facility, where they send all our letters with "undetermined contents" for heat treatment. It could be a couple weeks before she gets the thing, if she gets it at all.

    Better yet, invest a couple bucks in certified delivery, or FedEx.

  3. Clearly the hand of an ax murderer .. sans ax.

  4. OK--now I'm feeling uneasy. When you get the little card with the little cash and the horrid handwriting you'll know that I wish I could do better! Don't hold it against me.
