Dear Corey,

I am sorry you lost the tournament to that pimply-faced guy. You are really the better player and deserved to win. I was rooting for you the whole time. When is your birthday? Is this the last year you will be able to play in the youth league? It looks like you are pretty much a man to me. Do you have any pen pals? I used to have a few, but I got tired of them. I guess when you start to get older its time to re-assess who you want to spend your time on. Anyway, I'm looking for new pen pals. I don't use a pen any more though, as you can see. Now I use a computer. I have over a hundred fonts, but I only ever use Courier and Helvetica. This is done in Helvetica. Do you have a girlfriend? You are so good looking you probably have lots. I don't have a girlfriend or anything like that. I am not so good looking, but I have plenty of other good qualities. I am not so much into superficial things like good looks, but when I close my eyes at night, all I can see is your face. I would really like to look as good as you, then everybody would want to be my friend. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not jealous. I think you are a very kind person. I can tell because you were such a good loser, even though you gave it your all. I was never interested in bowling before I saw how you throw the ball. You are very strong and graceful, and also full of dignity. I am embarrassed whenever I watch gymnasts and figure skaters, but bowling seems much more direct. You just throw the ball and try to knock over the pins. There aren't any ulterior motives involved. I know in regular bowling there aren't any showers or anything, but in professional bowling do you have to hit the shower? Just wondering. You didn't seem sweaty at all, but that other guy sure did. They said that you were a freshman in university. Do you live at home or at campus? I think it would be fun to have a room mate and live in the dorm. I hope that if you do your room mate is a nice guy too. It’s too bad bowling is such an under-appreciated sport. If you were a hockey or tennis player and the second best in the country you'd be rich. It would still be a good idea to stay in school though because you have to plan for the future. You have the kind of face that will age well. You will still be handsome in your middle age, and possibly even when you are fifty and over. And bowling looks like a total body work out, so if you keep that up you'll have no problems with your body getting out of shape. Heart attacks run in my family, but that’s still better than cancer or muscular dystrophy. Anyway Corey this letter is pretty long so I think I'll sign off for now. I know you’re very busy so I may write to you again before you have a chance to respond to this letter.
