this morning #934.

this morning, at present, i was not mentally prepared to present my findings to my fellow philatelists. i had no choice though. after weeks of down & dirty secret detective work, i’d learned that one among us was a full-blown fraud. by tonight, i’d have to work up the courage to expose his lies before things went any further. to be honest, at first, i too was fooled. i too gave him my stamp of approval. he’d worked the long con well, wormed his way right into our tight-knit clique. before long, we all sang his praises. we wanted to believe in his outstanding collection & industry connections. come to find that he’s done this sort of thing before. he’s officially a grifter with one gift: charisma.
