Dear Petite Lovie,
…I'm suffering from a rare Oriental disease of the skin. It covers the bodies of those afflicted with white spots. Must be the water. Imagine me the Polkka Dot Man.
Love you,
Mike

Dear Joanie,
....I was dusted off for a liver infection. The water has gotten to me.... The campus deaths - - what is happening Joanie? I am really confused about everything. Where does man find the hatred to do the things he does. And many over here don't even care…
Love,
Mike
