Not Entirely True

I've made some things for you, Constant Reader; you see them laid out before you in the moonlight.  But before you look at the little handcrafted treasures I have for sale, let's talk about them for a bit, shall we?  It won't take long.  Here, sit down beside me.  And do come a little closer.  I don't bite.

Except ... we've known each other for a very long time, and I suspect you know that's not entirely true.

Is it?
