Dear Vice,
I was reading the DON'Ts in your last issue when suddenly inspiration blew its wad in my brain. I decided to play matchmaker and wed the renegade archaeologist to the New Orleans hooker throwback. I initially thought that the chick was at least in her 40s, but when I got to painting her, I discovered that she was in fact quite young. My whole joke about the archaeologist digging up a relic was lost. None the less, I hope this painting amuses you, and that it might find a place in your magazine.
