Mississippi

Billy wrote, "I read your letter again andyou talked about Blake, the farmer, and I pictured him in overalls, a straw hat, and missing teeth. I've been here too long. I asked my companion what was wrong with the people here and he said Mississippi is the poorest, fattest, and dumbest state. Were still laughing about it cuz it's so true. The people are awesome, don't get me wrong. One of our best friends here has no teeth. He's gonna take us fishin." He sounds good.

November update

I got a letter from Billy yesterday. He sounds like he is doing really well. I sent him a box of pomegranates and I wrote on the box, "Whose your favorite sister, now?" I guess he told Sandra that she was because she has sent him the most packages. We haven't received any pictures in a while because his camera card got sucked out by the envelope machine.
