IS MY HANDWRITING TOO SLOPPY FOR YOUR EYEBALLS?  HERE'S THE TEXT OF THE ABOVE CARD ...
GINA & MATT GALLO, HEIRLOOMS / ERNEST & JULIO GALLO WINERY / 600 YOSEMITE BLVD. / P.O. BOX 1130 / MODESTO, CALIFORNIA 95353 / GINA AND MATT -- THANKS SO MUCH FOR CONTACTING ME FOR ADVISEMENT ON WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE FUTURE OF YOUR MOST ESTEEMED AND HISTORIC FAMILY BUSINESS.  LET'S START WITH NAMES.  WHILE "GINA AND MATT" ARE DELIGHTFUL NAMES IN KEEPING WITH EACH OF YOU PEOPLE, YOU'LL REALLY NEED SOMETHING MORE DRUNKERLY AND FANCIFUL TO CONTINUE TO SELL WINE LIKE SO.  GINA, YOU WILL NOW BE "GINAVERDE," AND MATT, YOU WILL BE "MATTADOR."  "GINAVERDE & MATTADOR GALLO" HAS JUST THE RING TO IT TO BECOME THE MOST POPULAR PRODUCT IN BELIZE.  (MAURITANIANS MIGHT NOT TAKE TO IT, BUT THEY ARE A PEOPLE MOST FORGIVING.)  OH, AND THANKS FOR THE SAMPLES OF YOUR NEW SELECTIONS.  WHO EVER DREAMED OF FROZEN WINE POPS?  GENIUS!
