Sorry Steve
FOUND by Miranda in Huntsville, Ontario, Canada
Seems like someone's still playing around with you, Steve.

I wish this person would indicate to whom they're writing. This note could be for anyone.

This is a very interesting piece of writing. Notice how a lot of the letters, mostly the letters at the start of each word, are leaning to left. This indicates the person has strongly-controlled feelings and thinks before acting and possibly hides their emotions, maybe even had problems in early life. If I were to guess this letter was well thought out, in a very sarcastic way. Also the fact that there is very little connecting of the letters besides the u and o in the word you. This could indicate the person is an original thinker, has a tendency to be impulsive and is more than likely fairly creative. I love it!

This person will grow up to be a salesman. They are the only people I know who use your name this frequently.

I have known people who use your name every five seconds in conversation and it is severely annoying. About the third "Basil" I usually say, "I'm still right here!!" but it never seems to help. I'm never sure if they're not paying attention, or they're not sure who they're talking to.

The extreme use of Steve is so effective and irritating, Steve.
Mushrooms are yum (Steve).
If I ponder this find too long, I may end up putting Steve at the end of all my sentences... Steeeeeeve..... Noooooooooooo.

Obviously we need tougher mushroom control laws.

How many 'shrooms could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchick could chuck 'shrooms?

Larry and Steve had gotten into a food fight in the cafeteria, and the principal forced them to write notes to each other. Original thinker that he was, Larry's note was very sarcastic. "I'm sorry, Steve" wasn't enough to satisfy his ironic sense of humor.

And, as everyone know, if you throw mushrooms hard enough, then all the magic leaks out onto the floor.

Stever-ino in trouble again
I think it's funny that notewriter wrote mussrooms originally.

Can anyone make out what the oddly misshapen block letters on the back (top) say? "kind've" looks like Y (upside down) A E H and C 6 O W:

Steve Martin looked really cool in that movie Baby Mama.
(there was no way I could rotate the image to make those letters ALL face the right way.)

I was under the impression that this note was TO a guy named Steve and it was also FROM a guy named Steve, with the punctuation left out:

Hi Steve,
... but I'm very sorry Steve, OK?
Sorry,
Steve

I don't think sherbert/sherbet comes from 'sorbet'. Sherbet was originally a drink - the name comes from Arabic, and it's more likely that 'sorbet' derives from this than the other way round. Just so you know.

@ Stever-ino: I believe the block letters on the other side of the note say "FROM: ZACH"

(...)Then it got down off the mushroom, and crawled away in the grass, merely remarking as it went, `One side will make you grow taller, and the other side will make you grow shorter.'
`One side of WHAT? The other side of WHAT?' thought Alice to herself. `Of the mushroom,' said the Caterpillar, just as if she had asked it aloud; and in another moment it was out of sight.
Alice remained looking thoughtfully at the mushroom for a minute, trying to make out which were the two sides of it; and as it was perfectly round, she found this a very difficult question. So she threw it at Steve.

Steve in Steveland
I am sorry Steve. That is to say that I am Steve, and I am sorry. I am a sorry Steve. Sorry. Not sorry to be a Steve, not sorry at all. I am Steve, and I am a Steve, and I am sorry.

I am sorry that we do not get to see the full splendour of the the drawing that is the background for the note. It seems that the clouds drawn in blue ink are washed out and that suggests to me that we are not getting the complete picture. I think perhaps if we could see this missive in all of its original glorious full-colour treatment, then we could truly understand what happened to Steve.

The rain, or perhaps a puddle has robbed us of the full context.

And for that I am sorry.
Steve.
