my damndest to imitate you. I see it's not as easy as it looks. When I try hard and mess things up - I get a lot of new respect for you. That's a fact! My friends are beginning to call me "Sherwood". Well, I don't feel any too bad about that, believe me!

And some of the teachers say "Sure, there moderns can write, but will you hear of them 100 years from now, take Shakespeare and Dante, for instance ---" But its not how long people "live" but what they say when they're alive! Take Faulkner's "Sound and the Fury" or Hemingway's stories ---

You hear funny things at school. Sometimes you don't know what to believe. I tell you, sometimes I think college is a waste of time! How the majority of the faculty love antiquity!

Well - this is enough. If I say too much, its just because I want to tell you things. That's all!!--- N. R.
