Subject: M-INTRO: Zeke makes a new friend



Hi Velma,

Sorry if my writings do not fit up to your oh so Victorian cold and dry 
standard of table manners and rules of intellectual engagement.Naturally I 
apologize if I made you spill your morning coffee on the computer and all 
that. But being raised in the ghetto does take its toll! However I must 
blame the language on my marine training at Cherry Point. You know "Gung Ho" 
Kill the motherfucking commie bastards"  "Wipe out the fucking slant-eyed 
motherfuckers" and all that. Then of course the language of poor and working 
class people is just fine!

Or perhaps even earlier on the docks in Hoboken when the cops and scabs were 
constantly trying to break the picket line. The language their would have 
certainly made your Victorian bones just shiverrrrrrrrrr...

But you are barking up the wrong tree with your anti-communist humanistic 
hogwash.. 

By the way the secret language is fairly normal poor and working class 
standard. However we do have Ebonics which I think should be defended at all 
costs which probably makes you have nightmares! By the way you can take your 
Victorian table manners and stick it up your "rectum ricoris". As if we 
slaves are surpose to accept the bougeois norms of table manners. Sure and 
pigs fly!

Hidy-ho and pip-pip, Zeke!
You refer here to my nightmares.  Actually, Zeke you are a dream come 
true.  The job of pointing out some of the irrationality that drives 
socialist ideas could not be easier for me than with my new friend 
and helper, Zeke.  I'll try not to bore you too terribly much, but 
the apparent line between class standard and the ability to execute 
adequate command of the English language is just dumb.  I know you 
see yourself as a warrior for the working class, when in reality you 
only insult it.  I'll match my struggling, middle class family 
background to anyone's.  Don't tell people that because 
they have less in the way of material items that 
they should not be expected to nor can preform any task, writing or 
otherwise as well as anyone in an upper class.  The noteable 
improvement in your own writing since I pointed the faults out speaks 
to the good that can come of knowing a high standard is being/should 
be applied.    
Thanks ever-so-much for your help, 
Velma
P.S. Thanks for the tip about the oil in the girdle.
