Write a note to the person above you II

Dear Mike,

It occurred to me--given the time difference between our world and Narnia--could Soapy Smith be named after you?

Just a thought.

Sincerely,
Glen

Dear Glen,

Interesting thought. I think the article you referenced gives the explanation for Soapy Smith's name -- and it has nothing to do with me.

So, there.

Mike
 
Dear Mike,

You're cute and you appreciate my music. Also, your name rhymes with a lot of words such as "bike", "like", "dislike", "hunger strike", "psych", and "spike". Please will you date me?

Love <3 <3 <3

Dear Taylor,

You really should lay off dating for a while. It seems to be doing bad things to your brain. Namely, shrinking it.

Sincerely,
Glen
 
Dear Narborgio,

I don't remember much but summaries are good for the soul so:
  • a certain banana has turned into a belly ache
  • there has been a growing demand for justice in the italicized community
  • mi volas brakumi tiun sciuron
  • GG's attention span has stabilized at 2.7 words; of the substances we mixed under all the donations to her none have shown any measurable effect
  • one can't do many interesting things with WarriorSatyr's name but the ones you can do have delighted him
  • Glen doesn't ship Taypespian because secret crush obviously
  • I still wear hoodies (super comfy) and carry a scythe around in case someone needs their beard trimmed or their neighbor impaled
  • demand for whales is up by 4% but cliffs have to fear for their jobs
  • none of this would have happened if you had been here

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,
Freckles

Dear Freckles,

Secret crush? :eek: Interesting development, that. Not that I didn't see it coming.

Oh, about that. I've been meaning to get my beard trimmed. Would you oblige?

Dear Soapy,

When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. Since Glen hasn't picked one of over two million DLR (who proved, in her own words, "more like RLD: Really Lousy Dates") and a relationship with WS is out of the question because she will always suspect that his real name is "WackySquirrel", of course she has a crush on you. Especially since she believes you to be descended from a groovy wild west con man.

Here at The Blithe Scythe we will happily take care of all pogonic issues you might be facing, including trimming of the beard, extracting lost change from it, dyeing it any color of the rainbow, decorating it, making it into a horcrux, teaching it impressive party tricks, etc. etc.

Sincerely,
Freckles
 
Dear Freckle Face,

I have been stuck in the same German lesson for about a year now. All I do is listen to it over and over (not 24/7, of course). I am afraid to keep on going to the next lesson and forget the beginning, but I'm too lazy to go back and review the early lessons. What should I do?

Sincerely,
BK
 
Dear Mike,

The first thing you should do is review your motivation for learning German. Why would you want to do that???

If you actually do have a good reason, please just move on to the next lesson because doing the same lesson over and over again must be incredibly boring. I always do about three lessons in a row and then review all three to make sure I don't forget anything. Have you tried Quizlet? What book/resource do you use?

Liebe Grüße
Freckles

PS. Freckle Face?!?!?!? How dare you!
 
Dear Freckles,

Well, if your freckles aren't allowed on your face, where are the poor little things supposed to live?

Sincerely,
Glen
 
Dear Glenbakingsoda,

Just because there's something on my face is no reason to call me that. I don't call you Nose Face, do I? I call you much nicer and very creative words that you don't appreciate enough.

Anyway, Lady Callandra gave me those freckles and it's completely up to me where I keep them.

Sincerely,
Freckles
 
Dear Fernie,

I managed to disturb at least one person last night by telling them that fall was my favorite season because everything dies. Someone tried to change my mind by bringing up the leaves, but I pointed out that those are dying, too....

I really do love the leaves. ;)

-Glen
 
Dear Glenboogie,

Fall is my favorite season, too! And I'm kind of looking forward to winter just because I live in a new city and my developing some sort of regional pride is largely dependent on the question whether or not people will lend hats and scarves to the statues when it's cold.

Sincerely,
Freckles
 
Dear Frecklesnoogie,

If they don't...are you going to start a street protest? I have a soft spot in my heart for street protests...if you were in France, I'd suggest that you build a barricade, but maybe Germans don't do that.

Sincerely,
Glen
 
Dear Glenbaritone,

I suppose I'm not going to insist on my dream. If people have any spare scarves, they should probably give them to a refugee.

People don't really protest a lot anymore, and I certainly haven't seen any street barricades in my lifetime. But sometimes college students organize something called "Night Dance Demos" where they basically use their right to protest to have loud parties in the streets.

Sincerely,
T-Frex
 
Dear Frex the Frightful,

There's a town in my state where, in accordance with college tradition, students burn couches in the street whenever their football team wins. But that's more weird than radical. You're welcome to begin burning couches, however. It would keep the refugees warm.

Sincerely,
Glen
 
Dear Glenbostrichidae,

aren't those couches useful to watch more football matches in the future? It surprises me that the students don't seem to think the matter through. Young people are usually so sensible.

Anyway, I'm much more interested in whether Americans use the words couch and sofa interchangeably and if not, which word wins or where the difference is.

Also, can "several" be just two or would it be more than that?

Sincerely
Frex

PS. "Frex the Frightful" was so much better than "Frecklesnoogie". Respect your elders, especially if they're dinosaurs.
