letter: a Scirocco list CALL TO ACTION!!! (So Rantorific)]

[jp43044@netzero.net (Erik Patterson)]

I say offend away, however use big words so it takes a while to sink in.
It's kinda funny this topic comes up kind of a new vs. old.  Last week I
contemplated buying a newer VW to repalce my no-so-well-aging A2.  Then I
thought piss on that, who wants another car payment.  I'm fix'n the Urban
Insult Vehichle.  I bought an exhaust Firday, and I'm gonna repar the 3-foot
long rust hole in the floor.  My Wife shakes her head, the new neighbors
look in awe, the kid loves it.   Life is good.  I may even put the motor in
The Roc back together this week.  I think it has sat idle long enough.

Oh yea, I'd sing a letter like that.
