Dear Mr. Huggins,
Hello to you, sir! May I just say what an honor it is to have finally found you and made your acquaintance, although, quite obviously, the war will not be won until I have your hand firmly gripped in my own, perhaps with my other arm raised up to lightly hold onto your forearm, but naturally not reaching past the elbow and definitely nowhere near your bicep.
I trust that that day will come soon, however, should you communicate back to us with what we dearly hope will be your acceptance to keynote speak at this year's 3rd Annual 2010 Pancake Symposium, to be held just outside of Denver at Centaurus High School in Erie, Colorado. We feel that your years of breakfasting and general pancakery make you a prime candidate to both inspire the industry leaders who will be in attendance, while at the same time avoiding the technical accoutrement that so often accompanies a typical flat cake conference. Naturally, your transportation, room and meals will be covered by us. However, due to budget concerns and the recent economy, I must ironically ask that you be on your own for breakfast.
The conference itself is a two-day event this December 11th and 12th. Saturday we will have a meet-and-greet along with a workshop called "What's New In Pancake Embeddables" as well as your keynote speech that evening (to be followed with a cash bar semi-formal). Sunday will pit two of our more cantankerous members, Dr. Bob Van Saun and the Honorable Judge John McBryde, in a debate entitled, "Instant Pancakes: The Ten Second War." Afterwards I will give a lecture entitled, "Syrup-up and Away: The Future of Toppings." We will close out the weekend the same way we always do, with a Mickey Mouse Pancake competition. As keynote speaker, you are obviously entitled to be a guest judge.
Please let me know whether or not you accept, Mr. Huggins, as arrangements must be made soon and I am running out of people in the phonebook. Also, please let me know if you eat waffles, as this could present a small to very large problem.
Warmly,
The Correspondent
