About this listen

Ralph has it bad. He's in love with Helen, who doesn't know he exists. His plan is to send her letters on a regular basis and sooner or later she's bound to give in. Ralph's friend Tom is not so sure that's such a great idea, you know, with the stalking laws and all. But Ralph persists and personally hands Jerry, the mailman, another of his convincing letters to personally deliver to Helen. Will Helen file a restraining order? Will Tom keep teasing Ralph? Will Jerry get sick of Ralph's letters to Helen? This is a fun listen with a great twist at the end.

You are treated to TWO stories here. The original version (which I thought was lost in a hard drive crash) and version two, which I re-wrote from memory. Both are delightful even in their differences.
