<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This be Sammie, the Republican Dog. I am
really touched that you have extended and invitation to me to come and live with
you out there in the wild West. Sounds like you all have a good thing
going there. Mom said she'd get me a coat (red, of course) and boots so I
wouldn't freeze my toes in the snow. I have no idea what snow is.
Wally told me about snow 'cause he's the only one who's seen it. It
doesn't make sense, how does water get fluffy? Wally said he had to take
big old jumps to get through the snow. Sometimes he felt like he was on a
pogo stick.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My big problem is getting there. Dad won't
give me his scooter, can't find a helmet to fit me. Mom says I'm too
stubby and out of balance to ride the Segway plus it would take me about five
years to get there. Dad has a really big box that he offered to put me in
and Fedex to you. That seems to be the best solution. I'm not
getting on some Greyhound!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, if you get a special delivery in a really big
box, it will be me. I'll be there soon so we can all have turkey together
and root for the Irish (mom's an Irish fan and a Hoosier). Things are
looking up!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yours from the blue state of Florida,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>PS: What's a Ute? Mom says it's like a
Seminole, which was no help at all.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
