Dear So and So

[Grits]

Dear fellow volunteer,

Why do you agree to take on a job and then do not do what you have volunteered to do? I guess you just don't like to tell people no, but then when you do not do the job, it causes more difficulties than if you had just said no to begin with. Then we could have found someone else who actually would do what they had signed up for! Now there is no time to find anyone else. I am in the uncomfortable position of having to nag you like I'm your mother instead of a fellow volunteer, or else just doing the blasted thing myself.

Dear obnoxious teenagers in the big honkin' pickup truck with the big honkin' trailer,

Did you really need to follow me for 140 km on the freeway, alternatively tailgating me and cutting me off, and driving at dangerously high speeds to catch up to me again when I left you behind after you stopped for gas?

The crude signs in your window also defy explanation.

Please get a job. Or go to school. Or find some way to stop wasting the valuable resources that have been given to you. And try not to kill anyone in the process.

Thanks.
NbyNW

Dear Herald,
I know you don't feel good, but you need to eat, and you have to let me give you your insulin shot. Food + shot, they go together. We can get your blood surar stablized, then you'll feel better, and hopefully your neuropathy will improve. Or are you telling me you really don't feel good, you're tired, and we need to make one final trip to the vet?

Dear Rescue Workers in Sumatra(and Samoa) & good thoughts,

Can you please work a miracle & find my co-workers relatives alive?? Please??

Dear Earthquakes & Tsunamis,

Umm, do you mind? I think Sumatra, Banda Aceh & other areas of the Pacific have had enough. No more for the year please. Thank you though for doing this AFTER Ramadan, my co-worker appreciated it.

Dear RAAF & RNZAF-thank you for being quick of the mark & getting supplies in ASAP.

Dear RAAF & RNZAF-thank you for being quick of the mark & getting supplies in ASAP.

We on the Gulf coast of the US have breathed a sigh of relief that we escaped a year without hurricanes. I certainly feel for those in the Pacific islands effected by the recent tsunamis. Rogue waves are nasty things.

Many thanks to the rescue and relief workers that are working to get there quickly. And will continue to work hard and methodically to help out, rescue, clean up, and rebuild.
