197. Did you ever have a penpal?  when I was really young - like, fourth grade? maybe younger - I went through some convoluted process to acquire a prison penpal. Must've read about it in a magazine or something. In any event, my sneakiness was soon discovered by my mom, and she put a quick stop to it. I recall her trying to explain to me why that was a bad idea, and me sticking to my guns in a deliberately obtuse way. Good God, I must have been such a handful.
