Or even "Martin Frey's got something really horrible to tell you!"

or perhaps it was "Martin Frey's something really horrible"

or perhaps it was "Martin Frey's really you"

or perhaps it was "Martin Frey's really horrible you"?

Can't remember which one was correct now ;-)

Thank you so much for your valiant efforts to allow me to live this down
this side of the 2nd Venus transit of the century.

Yippee! After years of effort, my name will at last go down in the
