Anxious to hear what tales you tell this year about why I haven't gotten any
mail from you. As I recall last year, you weren't allowed to buy
stamps...Sure liked the year that you wrote every day! Oh well, I'm sure
you will have a very creative excuse. Don't understand where you learned to
make up stuff the way you do!

Nothing to tell you about here. Boring as usual. Ft. Worth will be back to
normal in thirty to fifty years after the Nuke went off there yesterday.
They shot down the plane that dropped it and it crashed into Colonel Sanders
on Western Center. I went up and bought a couple of Honey Barbecues. They
were really nice and warm. They glowed in the dark, too.

Van and Patricia wrote to say that they can't make it to PMC while we are
there. She's having triplets that weekend. Pretty good for a sixty year
old woman, huh? Ruby is going up to be the midwife. My midwife was Lila.

Guess my internet service is fixed. I think it was the phone line.
Probably melted by that Nuke..

I think I told you that Lulu called from Texarkana and talked for at least
an hour. She had a pretty bad sore throat by the time we finished. I told
her to use the phone next time.

Oh, I took an internet test and got ten of ten. Got your summer school
report card...no comment for now...

Okay, it's after two thirty AM, so I think I'll crawl into the closet and
sleep for a while. Rexy is home on leave for a day and is in my bed.

Take care. Hope you're getting plenty of mail and goodies. Did I tell you
I haven't received ANYTHING from you?

<sigh>
