Hey Glenn,

How you been? Family OK? The world seems to be treating you well. I mean, you have that whole “show” thing going on and that seems to be working out well. Plus, you’ve no doubt boosted your ratings in the last week or so thanks to various rants regarding video games in general, and Grand Theft Auto IV in particular. Now Glenn, can I call you Glenn?
