I trust your son is in good health. (That's how my dad says I should start letters. Only he calls 'em "correspondence" cause he's a lawyer.)

I still have to wash the furnace to earn my allowance, and I usually blow it on comic books and bubble gum. My favorite comic right now is The Incredible Zaxxon Rodriguez and the Fantastic Quartet -- I couldn't believe the cliffhanger at the end of the last issue!

The other day, me and Chuckie went out to the scary old factory by my house to look for treasure. It was scary! We had to run away from a bunch of mean coyotes, and I scraped my knee up pretty bad, but it was worth it, because we found a cool platinum compass!

Another!
