Nigel, Your ability to combine history, poetry, and opinion is magnificent! I especially enjoyed the poetry section, as I’m sure you can understand. Thanks for adding the related articles so I can learn even more!

This was wonderful, Nigel. Sent along to my group for further perusal. Very interesting take. I would love for you to post it to my Facebook group (along with anything else you would like to hit a larger audience).

Well, it has nothing to do with pimples that’s for sure. It’s a joke, it makes some people laugh.

Dear Mrs. Belle Watling,
How dare you reject my application. I made this hospital.

Correspondence? If I wanted a desk job I’d…

Sincerely,
Scarlette

Actually, a pretty soft rejection. Perhaps Mrs. Belle would really write that. Thank you.

Dear Snoopy,

We regret to inform you that you have failed the editing exam that you were subjected to, as part of the interview process for the post of the city-editor of The Beagle Daily.

We do appreciate your sense of humor in penning the headline of the news-item relating to the collapse of Bow-Wow Bros as: “It was a dark and stormy night”. However, we failed to understand why you provided the same headline for each and every news-item that you edited during this exam.

A little red-haired girl, who also happens to be the daughter of the proprietor of The Beagle Daily, was highly upset that her beautiful drawing of a sunrise, for the children’s section of our paper, also bore the headline: “It was a dark and stormy night”. Mr. Proprietor failed to understand the intended humor, if any, behind this headline, neither could our entire editorial panel.

After having vetted your editorial skills, we regret to inform you that your application for post of a city-editor with The Beagle Daily stands rejected.

However, our marketing department mentions that there is a little boy, down the street, named Charlie Brown, who is searching for a dog. We suggest you knock on his door. Should he welcome you in and make a place for you in his home and in his heart, we send him our sympathies.

We predict he will soon say: Why can’t I have a normal dog like anyone else?

Best Woofs,

Big Beagle
Chief Editor
The Beagle Times
