Random notes versus ransom notes from June 1996.

Sometimes I come across random notes that I've jotted down in the past. They feel like ransom notes from my past self that have been sent circuitously to my present self. The main difference between a "random note" and a "ransom note" seems to be the degree to which a person makes recourse to an X-Acto blade.

 

Other times I come across something that was cut and pasted together in the past. The pieces are all edge.
