I occasionally get a letter from my old friend who lives down in Southeast Ohio, in the hills, Justin Other Smith. He types on an old Royal portable typewriter he got at the Goodwill Store, and many of the keys don't work, no shift key and the period and the coma and some others are broken .......... his spelling and grammar leave a lot to be desired, so please excuse any errors.
