I CAN'T CONTROL THE VOLUME OF MY VOICE

I recently received this request for a recommendation letter:


Hi, Mr. F
This is J in your 6th grade talent. If you don't know me that's a shame . I am writing to you today about a program I wish to enroll in. The program is called the ________. PLEASE WRITE ME A RECOMMENDATION LETTER, (I'M NOT WRITING IN CAPS BECAUSE THE STATEMENT WAS IMPORTANT... WELL IT IS... BUT ITS JUST SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE LAPTOP.) IT IS IMportant that music teachers of mine will have to write a recommendation letter. Since you are one, please do, it would help me to get in to a great program. It doesnt have to be long, you may play with the fonts and words if you would like to . If you do, please hand it to me in class with a signature. If you don't have time or the pen is just heavy or you couldn't type cause your fingers were tired for demonstrating for your students in Winds Talent. I can understand so thankyou either ways and please give me your answer ASAP.

After I wrote the letter, he then followed up:

"My mother would like to know if the letter was at least 75 percent good things and not too many bad."


They were 100 percent good.

That's fantastic!

When my wife was finishing up her education degree, I'd sometimes help her correct papers. There were always at least a few amusing gems. :)

I went to Catholic School, and a letter like that one would have gotten me in trouble as of third grade, for all the errors it contains. I'm sure it was a sweet kid that wrote it, though.
