Endangered
Bears With
Nacho Chips

Dear [Editor]:
(Re: The Poison Pen).

I share your sentiments
about poaching, bear
hunting and, especially,
as regards tourists bent
on mayhem in our woods.
But I would sooner go
birdwatching in those
same woods with bacon
grease for mosquito
repellant than buy a beer
for a Texan and then take
it back. And you profess
to have to have done this
with two of them? You
are either large of stature,
foolishness or
prevarication to claim to
have pulled a stunt like
that. Most Texans I have
met take their beer very
seriously. If this had
really happened I would
suggest that it might be
your head decorating a
wall in the Lone Star
State.

ADVICE ON THE ESOTERIC and the mundane

Dear p-

I recently lost
fire. The Fire-Chief says that te
smoking in bed almost cost me my WEA YY)
life, but I know that there are People
stalking me. How can | stop them
from getting to me?

Signed,

Paranoid in Prince Ceres Wd / a

Dear Paranoid:

1 don’t know how
someone as whacko as you
manages to even get a hod
in the first place!!!?, let :
burn it down. But then 4gain,
maybe there are ‘people’, out
to get you. Maybe I’m one of
them, maybe the Fire-Chief
is, you never know,heh-heh-
heh-ha!!! Perhaps losing all
your possesions is a sign from
some unnamed deity that you
should take the opportunity
to flee this wicked place and
start anew elsewhere. Now
that you are free from the
things that bind us, you
should cut your strings from
this town and wander the
Earth, keeping forever one

you,

step ahead of your
persecutors. You know
they’ ll always be right behind
waiting for you to let
down your guard for an
instance, that they may

perform unspeakable acts

upon your body and soul! _

that consumed your life.
Whisper my name to the
guardians there and I’m sure
that bed & breakfast will be
yours, a gentle respite from
the storms of life!
