Mum,
Thanks for the email, it was very good. I'm glad you were able to see Aaron Kristen and Candace. I havent heard from them in a while and I thought aaron moved to austrailia or something (my brain created that when i hadn't heard from him in a while). Will you tell that kid to send me a letter. I'm in a horrible letter drought and I wanna hear of his weber experiences.
Yes I need a coat. It's in the twenties at night and the high is in the fifties and the wind pierces even to the very soul all hours of the day. Could you send me your olympic glove liners, and that gray nike XC hat that i have. It is a beenie and it has a bill... If you cant find it then you can simply send me some of those ear things to keep my oversized hearing tools warm.
Sorry to keep asking you to send me things.

Sorry to make you send me that absentee ballot. I decided i'm not voting. for several reasons: I don't know anything about politics because i've been out of it too long. And I'm being to worldly trying to get involved or wanting to vote.

We met this guy from Iraq. He lived there thirty years and has been here for a while. He said the people in Iraq are very grateful for George Bush because Sadaam was a tyrant. He said if you got a speeding ticket, and you were on bad terms with cops they had the right to kill you... and your brother.. and your mother. "But now we are free," he said. "I think God put into George Bush's mind, that Sadaam Hussen (spelling?) had weapons of mass destruction, even though he didn't, so America would come and free Iraq."
We baptized Gio Flores on september 13, Victor Medina on the 20th, and Charity Clark on 10/10. We have three more coming up this week that didn't happen last week. They are victor's children. Then we have two more the next week.

Thanks for everything mom, Love you.
