I, too, was invited to join the psycho-theologized band. ‘Think of that: Sunday School inviting Satan.

Very well, I've seen an expurgated Don Quixote; also an expurgated Bible. They were merely sucked oranges. / Yours ever [MTP].

University of Missouri sent an engraved invitation to their 67" Commencement, May 30 to June 2 [MTP]. Note: “Declined May 27, ‘09”
