Absolutely useless facts about you nobody cares about

I found an old letter. Background: I was ten and had recently moved to Texas. This is from my best friend back in Missouri. Names have been changed to protect the innocent.


"Dear Jimmy,

Hi! How are things down in Texas. Things are rotten up here. And I mean it; especially in school. Bobby Jones has to stay in the rest of the year. Oh and I bought an electric guitar and amplifyer for $42.50¢. Boy I wish I could fish as good as you: I can't even catch a sunpearch let alone aseagull*. Boy Ill tell ya cattle ranching sure is bad, alot of our cows have died two of our cows have died in the last three days and thats bad. I beat up Cam Davis and now I'm the strongest in the school. THANKS FOR WRITING:

I'll write you back in a couple of days. BYE

You'RE best friend
Tommy"


* I must have told him about me snagging a seagull by the tail feathers fishing in Galveston. I'll never forget that.

That's it. I mainly just wanted Fred to know I was once a badass fisherman and that my best friend was the school muscle.

Dude, you're already on my Mt Rushmore of CPS'ers. No need to pad yer stats. But that's a cool letter. I didn't know you were from Mayberry.

Three things:

1.) I received the newest Gray's Sporting Journal, but left it in its package at work.

2.) My eldest daughter has been playing squash for three days. She made the nationally-ranked varsity squad today.

3.) I won an auction for a Case Canoe. Jocose's example made me covetuous.

Huge caring fail on number two. Congratulations! That’s great news.

I'm all out of General Swedish Snus.

I didn't realize how much of a habit I have until it was gone.

"For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime." (Psalm 30:5)

"If we are prosperous, we devour God's blessings without feeling that they are his, or, at least, we indolently allow them to slip away; but if anything sorrowful or adverse befall us, we immediately complain of his severity, as if he had never dealt kindly and mercifully with us.... The Lord, even when he appears to overwhelm us for a time with the darkest of affliction, always seasonably ministers matter of joy, just as the morning arises after the night." (Calvin)

I've got so many pocket knives coming through ebay I'd be mad at Jocose if I wasn't thanking him for making me feel like a kid again.

I’m sad that I have only maybe a dozen bars of Revor left. I’ve been reading that it now may no longer exist. I hope that I am wrong.

I’ve had to buy Revor from Switzerland in the past because of UK CC laws and now this.
