Letter to the editor (sort of)

[Rob Boudrie]

The Metrowest Daily News runs a "Speak out" column sort of like "
letters to the editor", but they print opinions left on their answering machine.

This one appeared yesterday:

First Rule of Holdups

The felon who met armed resistance at the Framingham convenience store holdup missed the first rule of a holdup man - always hold up chain stores. The clerks are prohibited from being armed under any circumstances and are assured to be an easy target. Avoid the independents. They know how to fight back.

S.V. Ashland

Hmm.... I wonder who SV is (hint: the botched the last initial, and my dog's name is Simon)

Your dog is quite a 2nd Amendment advocate! Well done, Fido!

...and I thought SV may have stood for a company's initials in TX.

I owe Simon a biscuit!
