July 10, letter (hand delivered) to the University of Houston Honors College

Super Secretive – Do not read

Dear dean, assistant dean, and assistants of assistants – and all honorable students:

Attached please find the receipt from Ft. Stewart, Georgia, whither I rode to deliver your generous donation to the relief fund of the 3/7 Cavalry.

By reading this cover letter you have established connection with the report inside, which has gone through senators, media moguls and military minds.  I have a feeling none of them feel good about the conclusions I reached during my Boy Scout task of riding a bike to Georgia.  The answers I got to my questions there were disturbing, I dare say.

I hope you’re all as undisturbed as ever.  I’m not.  I’m still playing the April Fools joke, I’m afraid, and I’m damned tired of it.  Not my Aprils Fools joke, mind you, but that of President Bush.  I know that my Cassandra babble about quicksand wars and cover-ups is as quaint now as ever, but it will seem disturbing to many of you as well when you learn what the “Selective Service” means.

And by the way, speaking of April Fools jokes, here’s mine:  If I’m right in my eccentric, disturbed theories, you reading this letter, with its attached report, makes you a target of your government.  Just kidding?  If you are nervous, call some of the illustrious people who have all been in receipt of this report before you, and let them know that they can’t silence everyone who knows the truth about the Battle of Baghdad.

Still wearing my brass nuts.

Captain May
