Dearest Mother:

Life in the United States of America is different. People here are oddthey really have no sense of style. Yesterday I saw a man walking down the street in a cowboy hat. Last week I talked to a guy with a receding hairline who claims he buys all his clothes, furniture, wail-hangings of horses, and bar-b-que equipment at a store called K-Mart. He seemed Cimost religious about shopping there. Oh well, these Americans ko~p me laughing.
