Letter sent to Pam, the #1 Top User on goodreads.com:

Hello Pam.

Congratulations for your accomplishment: #1 top user on goodreads.com.

I hope that your recent celebrity is not overwhelming, and I hope that you don't take it the wrong way when I tell you that my life's ambition has reinvented itself this afternoon.

Happiness and spiritual enlightenment no longer interest me. All that matters is that I honestly usurp your position on this top users list, even if that means giving up the opulent western lifestyle I've been living thus far to pursue a more monastic, scholarly attitude which would allow me to consume hundreds of books each month.

Estimated time to completion given a rate of 3 bpd: 618 days. December 25, 2012. I look forward to contacting you at this time to brag of my accomplishment.

Regards,
David
