IS MY HANDWRITING TOO SLOPPY FOR YOUR EYEBALLS?  HERE'S THE TEXT OF THE ABOVE CARD ...
RICHARD DAWKINS / DISTINGUISHED HUMANIST GUY / P.O. BOX 13604 / SAVANAH, GEORGIA 31416
RICHARD!  MORLEY AND CHICO WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT YOU THE OTHER DAY.  "HE'S ATHEIST," SAID MORLEY.  "HE IS NOT A THEIST!" SAID CHICO.  THIS GOT QUITE HEATED (THEY DIDN'T REALIZE THEY WERE SAYING THE SAMETHING).  "LOOK," I GENTLY CAJOLED, "YOU FOOLS ARE BOTH WRONG.  DON'T YOU REMEMBER THAT RICHARD WAS PRESIDENT OF THE VOODOO CLUB™ IN HIGH SCHOOL?"  (YOU LOATHED CHICKENS!)  "BESIDES," I ADDED, MOST PROFOUNDLY, "IN THIS LIFE YOU WILL MEET MANY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT LOVE THE LORD ... BUT YOU WILL NEVER MEET ANYONE WHO IS NOT LOVED BY THE LORD."  THIS GAVE THEM PAUSE, AND THEY SMILE REVERENTLY.  SOON, THEIR CONVERSATION TURNED TO TURNIPS AND RADISHES (MORLEY ARGUING IN FAVOR OF THE FORMER).  INCIDENTALLY, REMEMBER THAT TIME YOU MADE A VOODOO DOLL OF A VOODOO DOLL?  SALLY WAS SPEECHLESS!
