Catalog gumbo

Dear Catalog Marketeers (and I mean that "Dear" in the most pro forma
way):

If I see one more catalog that informs me "There's still time
to shop!" before such time as a reasonable person would be worrying about that
(say, December 22), I'm going to put your catalog to use in the outhouse,
replacing the corncobs.

Also, could you please each send me not more
than one a week? I'm beginning to worry about the Earth imploding due to the
unbearable pressure of billions of
catalogs.

Yours,

Dichroic

Every December, my mail
carrier displays new levels of skill in fitting 60 cubic inches of mail into 30
cubic inches of mailbox.

I know why I'm making Chicken, Shrimp, and
Sausage Gumbo at the moment. Could someone please tell me why I'm making 4
quarts of it? Or does anyone want to come over for dinner?
