Hi Gayle!

What a pleasant surprise this is for me! I definitely remember you, your sons and your cats Blackie and Smokie. I hope all is well with you and your family — our family says hello back!

I was pleasantly surprised this a.m. when I saw your article in the Star Tribune about the WWII WASP pilots. I didn’t know you are a journalist. And I was unaware that there was such a group as the WASPs. Well done!

You probably don’t remember me, but I used to live in the little gray house next door to you and your family in Bloomington. You might remember my kids, Ole and Karl, though. Our best wishes to you, and say “Hi” to your parents and “Sis”, also.

I’m sorry, what? I could have told you those football facts YEARS ago. Though I suppose you probably tune me out when I start ranting about football. I actually took a science class with Lane’s bro (who was my year). And Pete Carroll, was neighbors with one of my elementary school friends!

“We Minnesotans don’t normally like to make a fuss or draw attention to ourselves, so, uh, sorry for all the drama, college football. We’re hard-working folk who like to keep to our word and we can normally commit to a job for, er, more than fourteen months.”

Hee hee. Tell me you’ve seen the Onion article about Minnesota rejecting federal stimulus aid because they didn’t want to be a bother. Actually, I think I may have shown it to you…
