Now Dave responds, but only to request that Johnny comes clean with his secret idolatry, and we get a missive from one Sean Robinson, I wonder whatever happened to THAT GUY?!? Also, the Lord Julius Like-A-Look photo has no disclaimer.
Our dear Mr. McPhanbot next rears his head (you RAISE hogs, you REAR heads (but only on alternate Tuesdays, and ONLY if it's during one of the six months with less than seven letters in its name... #ProTip),) in the glamourshots from glamourpuss #13:

Dave didn't respond, and this letter implies the existence of an earlier unpublished letter (I went back and checked, and glamourpuss 1-6 contain NO letters from Johnny Mcphanbot, a GRAVE injustice that all men of goodwill must NOT let stand. #PleaseHoldForDaveSim!)

Johnny next appears in a two-fer from the glamourshots for glamourpuss #14:
Okay, it's not really a "two-fer", but a "one and a half-fer" sounds like the kind of illegal activity one used to only see late at night on the Cinemax cable channel (and in earlier days as a scrambled mess on the pay-per-view channels that we didn't know how to unlock. Ah, memories...)
Next Time: Hobbs.
