Department of Satire Awareness

An alarming influx of misdirected emails and comments sadly necessitates the following announcement:
Please be advised that Banterist is not a resource for contacting Sean Puff Daddy Puffy P. Diddy Just Diddy Combs, Stevie Wonder or Paris Hilton.
Apparently several individuals found Banterist via a Google search for Sean Combs’s email address. After their Puff Daddy quest results lead them to Diddy’s Daddy Tips and A Public Message From Sean P. Diddy Combs they assumed they struck Puffy gold. Then, apparently unable to comprehend what they may or may not have bothered to read, they sent P. Diddy an email, via Banterist, believing it to be another appendage of the Just Diddy empire.
Likewise, certain individuals who found their way to AOL Chat With Stevie Wonder and Dear Person Who Hacked Paris Hilton’s Cell Phone seem to believe that Banterist is the personal website of those individuals.
Unfortunately, it is not. I lack the musical talents of the exquisite Mr. Wonder, and am differently-gendered and educated than Ms. Hilton. Unlike Mr. Just Diddy, I was unable to build a remarkable career chattering over other people’s melodies, and would not find it politically or financially feasible to pay a black gentleman to follow me around with an umbrella.
In addition, I have no contact with any of them, though I would like to extend to Mr. Wonder an open invitation for brunch.
It can be assumed that the following unedited, uncorrected emails and comments sent to Banterist will not reach their intended targets any time soon:

You need to check out the main story in PARADE (1/8/06). It mentions your name as part of someone’s dream of a lifetime. It would be great if you could make this happen, if only for a day! I don’t know the person, but I would be interested if you decide to act on this. Thanks for letting me write to you. I have always adored your music!!
