Hi folks!
 
Well now.  We was feelin' kinda down on account of because we had to pull
out of the Olympics due to some sicko peoples who done set off a bomb.  Let
us told you that it really upset our Paw Paw, Mee Maw and us.  It was just
too close to home for us to feel comfortable about continuing to compete in
the games.  We was all wanderin' around the house not knowin' quite what to
feel or how to react.  We was all mighty sad.
 
Then the mostest wonderful thing happened.  Mee Maw came in and gived us a
package from our Aunt Kelleen that the snail man done lefted in our snail
box .  Wow!  Now that was special.  Here we was feelin' kinda low and our
Aunt Kelleen done cheered us up right proper like!
 
She sented us the NEATEST things.  She done maded these really neat things
to go around our necks.  They gots jingly bells on them and has our names
and phone number on them.  Now we can be as bad as we wants to and not have
to worry 'bout getting losted!  Thank you Aunt Kelleen.  You sure is a nice
lady.
 
Maybe you can make one for Paw Paw too?  He don't get losted too often, but
he is gettin' kinda old.  We sure would hate to lose him when he goes on one
of his midnight rambles to wherever it is that he goes.
 
Gorsh.  It sure is nice to be loved .  Maybe we can do something really nice
for you someday?
 
Many much loves from your nephews,
 
Tater and Odie
