We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
» The BBC's Jamillah Knowles mixes it up with the FOUND crew after a show in London (starts 1/3 of the way through)!
» We're hopping on a plane and jetting to Europe for our Fall 2008 Euro Tour!
and for some reason this made me cry.
I have a cousin named Jeff that lives here in Phoenix. Weird.
I wonder if it was found at Powells Book Store... I love that place. You should go there to see the art sometime. It really amazes me.
I hope it was Grandma who took the book to the bookstore. I don't like the alternative ways it may have gotten there. But if it was Grandma, it says something about how well the book and the note were received.
HAHAa seems like grandma didn't value the gift that much..
I think that Grandma was in prison.
Does nobody else find it funny how the "so many people on the road to hell..." bit seems to come out of nowhere? Like poor Jeff just needed to get this off his chest? It also seems that it's written by a young kid, but that little outburst seems to come from someone more mature... I dunno.
I agree with Nate. I think Grandma was in prison too.
I thought he was just bitching about how shitty it is in Phoenix. I was all nodding, like, "Yeah!" LMAO
i'm really worried about 'promisquity'! what is it, and is it on par with violence, or liquor?? could i be doing it and not even know? I kinda feel like Grandma doesn't care for Jeff very much, seeing as how he doesn't know wheter she recieved the last couple letters, and this book ended up in a resale shop. maybe she's the black sheep of the family. Maybe she's the promisquitious one. i hope so!
I wouldn't feel comfortable talking this way to my Grandma.
Automatically made me think of one of my closest co-workers who's a very strict Jehova's Witness. I'm guessing the author of the letter is anywhere between 16 and 24, and has been raised quite strictly Church-going and Devil-fearing... so he's talking to his gramma about something he knows she'll connect with, because most gramma's think very very poorly of promiscuity, violence, and liquor, and they do tend to think that anyone engaging in any of those have fallen into the devil's trap and are on the high road to hell...
Grandma has recently escaped prison with my aid. The first two letters provided specific instructions. See you in Heaven.
I was thouroughly disappointed when I found out which president Jeff was calling one of the best in USA history.
I like how he uses the word promiscuity with his grandmother, even if he butchered it.
