To: Ginzaki of the Bulging Bag
Most Exalted and Fearless Leader of the BGL.
and to anyone else who might read this who has a finger on 'the button.'
Dear Sir (et al.),
Please find my application to join 'The BGL.' I was naught but a day liberated from FrobozzCo. Sales Co. and Co. Inc. when I found myself ambushed in some darkish wood by no less then three large, smelly rodents and an irate Chihuahua with a large rock. Though I managed to dispatch the bounders with a penknife and a now tragically unusable FrobozzCo. Sales Co. and Co. Inc. mail order catalog, I begin to see that there is safety in numbers.
I think you'll find my resume in order, a clean DNV, and picture of myself and some friends in swimsuits by a pool, which I hope will persuade you that I would be an asset to your group. The favor of a reply would be most appreciated, as well as someplace warmer and drier than beneath the cupboard in the kitchen accessed through the window of the white house with the boarded front door, and next to the mound of abandoned paper bags that smell like moldy peppers.
Most sincerely yours,
Jaelle Hausroc
