In response to this:

Dear Mr. Bonin,

Your article, "Flower child of '60s regrets his mistake," in the Monday, July 31, 2006 edition of the Pawtucket Times was quite a feast for the eyes: dripping with sarcasm, irony, and a clearly partial tone.  In the piece, you characteristically take stabs at--to name a few--the modern, individualist

Oh and pardon the missing apostrophes here and there, I copied and pasted from Word and punctuation marks don't always go through for some reason.

Big Love,

the fact that you restrained from "PS [insert explicative here]" like I would have done impresses me.

love ya!

I did actually have a PS. He insulted teenagers' handwriting today, so I included a handwritten note saying: "I may not have expertly crafted Palmer script, but I happen to love my unique, 'indivualist' handwriting." I write in all capitals in a sort of messy-cursive script, and I'm sure that he most likely will hate the way I write.

And yes, it was tough to refrain from [insert explicative], but for the sake of my argument, I stayed objective.

Big Love,
Jared
