Work sucks. But that’s the topic 4 another time.
I remember a letter I intercepted once from my sister. She was about to give my Dad to mail. She pleaded wit me to give her back her leta but nay I had enuf sense at that time to hold unto it.
Well the recipient of her leta was Rebecca one of them newspaper shrinks/psychologists u know like Dear Abby ETC. Dear Rebecca was a shrink for vanguard newspaper. We had a fascination for those cock and bull stories it was fiction at its highest. I cant remember the wordings o the leta verbatim but it was sumtin like this
Dear Rebecca,
I am a mother of three children. A while back while playing my kids ran into a snake. As I was looking for a stick to kill it, the snake bit one of my kids. The child died before we got to the hospital. I then resolved to always have a stick handy. 2 months later armed robbers came to my house and used the handy stick to beat me and my kids another one died. My problem is I don’t know wat to do I have one child left and don’t know if I should keep a stick or not. Please help me.
Worried mother.
Before anyone points out the loopholes in the story of which there are a zillion bear in mind this was written over 15 years ago.
We still laugh over this. But now I am left wondering wat would have happened had we posted the letter. Would it have been published, wat would Rebecca advice.

I think I'd advise her to ditch the stick and just take care of her remaining child very well..no playing in overgrown bushes.
I think the newspaper people would have just ignored the letter.

impatient to look over more of your web content, enjoy your day!
Because its usually fairly cheap to own and maintain a fax-to-email service, the technology investment can usually pay for itself in a few months or so - even if it only has a handful of paying customers at the start. Now there are countless online fax service providers you can use and the average monthly charges run around $10 a month. This financial tool exposes defaults, arrears, CCJs, late payments, skipping installments, bankruptcy etc. To get a desired amount borrower has to fulfill some pre requisites: In the West, however, fax machines are transitioning into backup roles, while online faxing is surging ahead relentlessly.
