Dear Sassys,

Please let me know when and where I can bend over.

 Dear Rob,
 
 Thanks for the inquiry.  
 
 Just the other day I had a working lunch with one of the senior members of
 the Committee.  We discussed at length your case.  As you probably know, we
 will be awarding numerous outreach grants from our "Theater Not Guns" high
 school funding project. I am a great admirer of your "Freshman Year Yucks"
 and was a very active campaigner at the last Committee meeting on your
 behalf.  Unfortunately many Committee members felt your work a little too
 "edgy" for high school students.  
 
 A few Committee members from our commercial division had adopted your
 "Sophomore Stunt" for backing in a trial Off Broadway run. Although this
 will probably not happen this year because the Committee felt that in order
 to sell in today's climate we need products with more of an "edge", I
 wouldn't write off your chances on some production in the future.  My best
 advice to you here is to keep your chin up and your nose clean, if you what
 I mean. 
 
 Again, Rob, thanks for inquiry and your continued fawning attention to our
 authority.  Although it looks like you may have "fallen through the cracks"
 once more, I can assure you that the Committee has always found your
 Shameless Plugs quite amusing and entertaining.  
 
 Keep plugging away.
 
 Sincerely,
 
 Nick Manhattan
 Committee Chairman
