A real hoot

Dear Ma,

I picked up a book the other day, some fella wrote one about a red letter. Pretty funny, using almost all the alphabet to write a story about just one.

Well, this here Hawthorne guy has me about falling off my stool with some of his writings. In one part, he hated his job so much that when he got fired he said it was like a person thinking about committing suicide only to have the good fortune to be murdered. What a wit!

In another piece he talks about politicians wishing they could actually cut off the heads of the outgoing party instead of just thinking about it, but it wasn't their way to kick the head after cutting it off, either real or imaginary. Hilarious!

Anyway, really looking forward to more hijinks and spirit in this tome.

Love, Ezekiel
