Dear Oddballs,

What do you fear most? I’m afraid of almost everything! I’d like to narrow down my fear to one or two big things and find others with similar phobias and start a club or something.

Scaredy-Cat in SC

Dear Scaredy-Cat,

I have two great fears: 1. That I will die alone, as some miserable old wretch that no one likes and they won’t find my body for weeks, and 2. Taxes. Ironically, if I do kick the bucket, I won’t even know if anyone found me or not AND I won’t have to pay taxes anymore!

Which Beatle is the best?

Dear Music Man,

Whoever wrote “Taxman.” (See above.)

Dear Oddballs,

Some guy saw me reading Oddballs and asked me if I knew you. I said I knew of you but didn’t know you personally. In any case, he said for me to tell you that you owe him five grand and that he’s coming to get it from you so be ready.

Heads-Up in HI

Dear Heads-Up,

Thanks for the heads-up. Please tell him I don’t have the money with me, but I know where I can get it. I just need some time.

Dear Oddballs,

Are you a millionaire?

Money-Grubber in MT

Dear Money-Grubber,

If I had a million dollars, would I need to borrow money from people? That said, I have a deal in the works that could make us all millionaires! For a small investment on your part of $5K…
