He did the same letter writing thing to host a radio show on KCRW once. The letters were really funny, but I can’t find a link.

What great timing, @Rusty_Blazenhoff ! Just last night, I was watching TV (which is rare!) and I decided to go to some of the websites that advertisers were putting up with their commercials. I read about some kind of blue cook set that had a prominent link to their arbitration requirement, and I also went to the Chia Pet website! There I learned that there are a TON of different kinds of Chia pets, from presidential to lots of Star Wars, and yes, I saw Pee Wee there too, woo! That was fun entertainment scrolling through all the options.

Thanks! Ok, it was back and forth tweets, not entirely letters. I forgot about his donut demands!

my mum (as an MFA student) did an internship at Pilchuck Glass School some 40 years ago and worked directly with Dale Chihuly and his staff. one year as a joke-y xmas gift i bought a Bob Ross chia pet and fashioned an eyepatch for it and modified the box to make her a “Chia-huly Pet” that made her snort eggnog when she opened it.
