Dearest John:
I went to the door today and the postman delivered a partridge
in a pear tree. What a thoroughly delightful gift. I couldn't
have been more surprised.
With deepest love and devotion,
Agnes

Dearest John:
Today the postman brought your very sweet gift. Just imagine
two turtle doves. I'm just delighted at your very thoughtful
gift. They are just adorable.
All my love,
Agnes

Dearest John:
Oh! Aren't you the extravagant one. Now I really must protest.
I don't deserve such generosity, three French hens. They are
just darling but I must insist, you've been too kind.
Love,
Agnes

Dear John,
Today the postman delivered 4 calling birds. Now really, they
are beautiful but don't you think enough is enough. You're being
too romantic.
Affectionately,
Agnes

Dearest John:
What a surprise. Today the postman delivered 5 golden rings;
one for every finger. You're just impossible, but I love it.
Frankly, all those birds squawking were beginning to get on
my nerves.
All my love,
Anges

Dear John:
When I opened the door there were actually 6 geese a-laying on my front steps. So, you're back to the birds again, huh? Those geese are huge. Where will I ever keep them? The neighbors are complaining and I can't sleep through the racket.
Please stop.
Cordially,
Agnes

John:
What's with you and those fucking birds? 7 swans swimming. What
kind of God damned joke is this? There's bird shit all over the
house, and they never stop with the racket. I can't sleep at
night and I'm a nervous wreck. It's not funny. So stop with
those fucking birds.
Sincerely,
Agnes

O.K. Buster:
I think I prefer the birds. What the hell am I going to do with
8 maids a-milking? It's not enough with all those birds and 8
maids a-milking, but they had to bring their God damned cows.
There is shit all over the lawn and I can't move in my own house.
Just lay off me, smart ass.

Hey! Shithead,
What are you? Some kind of sadist? Now there's 9 pipers playing.
And Christ do they play. They've never stopped chasing those
maids since they got here yesterday morning. They cows are getting
upset, and they're stepping all over those screeching birds.
What am I going to do? The neighbors have started a petition
to evict me.
You'll get yours,
Agnes

You Rotten Prick,
Now there's 10 ladies dancing. I don't know why I call those sluts ladies. They've been balling those pipers all night long. Now the cows can't sleep and they've got the diarrhea. My living room is a river of shit. The Commissioner of Buildings has subpoenaed me to give cause why this building shouldn't be condemned.
I'm sicking the police on you.
One who means it.
December 24, 1994
Listen! Fuckhead,
What's with the 11 lords a-leaping on those maids and ladies.
Some of those broads will never walk again. Those pipers ran
through the maids and have been committing sodomy with the cows.
All 23 of the birds are dead. They've been trampled to death
in the orgy. I hope you're satisfied, you rotten, vicious swine.
Your sworn enemy,
Agnes
