I Believe That The Heart Does Go On

Hello James,
When is Igor coming to africa??

Hello Mr Lawrence,

I am very worried about Igor. I don't know when he'll arrive in Africa... I don't even know if he's still alive!

About a week ago, the ship he was stowed away in sent a distress signal that was picked up by the YMCA Royal Navy. It appears that the ship encountered heavy storms on the way to Africa and crashed against some rocks. Many died or disappeared under the waves; Igor was one of the few that survived (his morse code was sent from the captain's cabin just before he jumped out of the window and managed to land in one of the dinghys.) Unfortunately, he lost all of the Virgin statues with the gold coins, apart from one stuffed down his trousers (maybe it's enough for a down payment on your property, if he gets there?) The gifts for the security guards were also lost.

About a few days ago, I received a text message from his mobile phone. It appears that the survivors of the ship found an island off the African coast and are currently there. All attempts on my part to locate the exact position of the island, however, have been futile - it's as if the place is off the maps! He was in high spirits until this morning, when a distressing message arrived together with a mobile photo: "They all died. Please help me. I'll try to make it to the second island in a boat I found. They killed them, the Others killed them all..."

As you can imagine, I'm deathly pale with worry. I sincerely hope he manages to make it to Africa and buy the land for me, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I fear the worst.

Attentiously yours,

James Carvalho

Fantastic, I love the way you've included elements from "Lost" and the photo, well that's just priceless. Although I'm actually surprised you didn't say the ship had been attacked by pirates.

I hope the smoke monster doesn't get him.

*laughs*

Can Igor be judged by the smoke monster? I'd be curious to see what flashes before his eyes.

You know, that whole 'my heart will go on' thing. I've always envisioned a bunch of hearts just...sort of floating there, rotting in time after the bodies have died and disappeared. LIke, 'my heart will go on'....just hanging around, decomposing, being a nuisance to pedestrians. Horrible song title, if taken literally...
