    Jelly,

    I'll have you know that the only things you can smell at the FHSAA, when walking to a mat to grab a wrestler after their match, are the nauseating stench of overwhelming ass gas, sweat and what I believe to be festering staph infection.

    Seriously, those kids REEK!

    IJAG,

    I once corrected six or seven factual errors, reworked the lede, the nut graf, the kicker and half of the other sentences and reordered several paragraphs, all in one story. The next day, the editor-in-chief included the story in his daily e-mail to the staff as an example of great writing. You better believe I put that in my job review.

    I recommend you do the same.

    Sincerely,

    Versatile

    Dear Ron,

    It has been a year. SportsJournalists.com has moved on as best it can, but hasn't found anyone like you and probably won't.

    And still ... nobody gives a f_ck about anyone's fantasy team.

    RIP, good sir and thanks for your contributions, knowledge and friendship.

    Sincerely,
    SM51

    Dear Mrs. Dixiehack:

    I love you, therefore I agreed to watch Two Broke Girls. But good Lord, what a steaming pile.

    Love

    Dear readers of the (Podunk Press),

    Despite overwhelming evidence of a conspiracy, I and my coworkers are not national GOP operatives out to destroy the candidacy of Rick Santorum. We also are not radical Shiite gay nuclear-bomb-making Muslims.

    I know it's hard to believe.

    Sincerely,

    I Should Coco

    Dear 'tart,

    If I ever write a novel, I think I'm going to title it "Letters from Printdust".

    Yours in thievery,

    IJAG,

    I am older than you. I've been filing those babies away for years.

    Lieslntx

    P.S. It does get better. :)

    Board,

    Kind of a big deal thing happened this week.

    My daughter sat for her test to get her Property Tax Agent license with the State of Texas. And yes, she passed. We are only waiting on the formality of her receiving the piece of paper to frame.

    In about 9 months (at the age of 23) she will be making more money than her 44 year old mom.

    The challenges she has faced and conquered to get to this point simply overwhelm me. She is made of greater stuff than I am.

    Proud Mommy,

    Lieslntx
