Dear Solly & Carla, 24 MAY - Sat.
Just a short note. I was listening to the radio and what I heard gave me a real case of homesickness. It was "Kites Are Fun" by the FREE Design. Brought back good K.C. memories - Xmas time - 100 West etc. - But I'm getting so homesick - Solly, have you ever heard any other records by F.- D.?
Damn - only 84 days but seems like a life-time.
Want to ask questions about things I've read in "Capital" - What favorite K.U. hangout burned down? About 2 or 3 weeks ago there was big picket lines in K.C. at Safeway stores - Boycott Grapes - was Paul, you or any of the gang there?
Write tell me any old gossip - NOBODY WRITES - Tell me about K.C. - I miss home so much.
Things still happening but don't want to talk - Two Friends killed by rocket - Saw what was left of bodies PUKE! Don't feel right.
Am getting ready to order Stereo components - What an outfit I'll have
Still unsure of future - probably GM & finish school - FUCK IT.
Gonna drink, eat, & fuck - take hot baths
Get Bob & BAN to write - Paul - Goose people. Everyone -
This Xmas Let's buy 2 cases of Taylor's??
Your Dear Friend
Randall
PS The light still works
