To the Editor:

         Thought you might get a smile out of this poem,  “Ode to the Spell Checker.”

 

         Eye halve a new spelling chequer,

         It came with my pea sea.

         It plainly marques four my revue

         Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

 

         Eye strike a key and type a word

         And weight four it two say

         Weather eye am wrong or write,

         It shows me strait a weigh.

 

         As soon as a mist ache is maid,

         It nose bee fore two long

         And eye can put the error rite;

         Its rare lea ever wrong..

        

         Eye have run this poem threw it,

         I am shore your pleased two no.

         Its letter perfect awl the weigh,

         My chequer tolled me sew.

 

         Have a grate day.

To the Editor:

         Take me out to the ball game.  Take me to the E.R.  Get me the ambulance, quick, ‘cause I’ve got a fishhook gouging my butt and I’ll need a tetanus shot.  I’m not Doris Day nor Dinah Shore by any vote!  I’ve actually had a fishhook on myself once.  I felt it land on me and I got nervous thinking it got my ear or the back of my neck and I’d need a tetanus shot.  Lucky thing, it landed  on the hook of my coat and never got stuck on it. 

         Easter is coming.  Watching the little kids go nuts at the egg hunt is funny.  I’ve seen kids run up to eggs and the sister or brother beats them to it and they chase one another.  I’ve even seen the eggs get stepped on.  A shoe full of egg salad and a Mad Ma.

         The fishhook is on page 34 on the baseball player’s leg in the March Gazette.

To the Editor:

         Hi, Sue.  I found the fishhook on page 34 in Pastor Thomas Braun’s column in the baseball player’s right pant leg.  It’s always fun to hunt throughout the paper for it.  Please substitute the CAP Agency or another Carver County charity in the drawing instead of my name.  Thank you.

To the Editor:

         Editor Magna is the correct Latin, but, for those who don’t know the language, you are the great one among editors.  I still can’t understand how one little 110-pounder can produce that Gazette!

         At any rate, Father Conran’s letter to the Gazette last month reminds me that I have a “pecuniary” debt to liquidate. 

         Peace and blessings on the whole Or-sen clan, along with your pals, Julianne and Mary.

EDITOR’S NOTE:  Hi, Fr. B.  Love you.

 

To the Editor:

         Thank you for printing those letters from the community youth last month.  I am sure these young people have learned a valuable lesson.

         Thank you also for your editorial about teaching and education.  You say it all.  We would have well educated students with the curriculum you suggest.  Parents should stand up and demand the best education for their children.
