Letter: A bit of advice for youth

ENID, Okla. — Dear anybody,

This letter or transcript should have been written 100 years ago, at least.

This letter is more addressed to the youth of our nation, more accurate to the 18- to 21-year-olds, those that are about to get married.

So, you got the right person? Here is some very important information.

1. First check out the family members (if any). Have they been in the penitentiary? (Look out.)

2. Next, (see) if anyone has been in the nut house. (This is bad.) Very important!

3. Check if anyone is supporting another family.

4. Also, if the mother-in-law is 4 feet wide at the hips. (Check all genes.)

To get the answers to the above, call their neighbors. Good people are scarce.

This letter is written in hopes that your marriage will last a long time, at least 60 years. I know there are other circumstances. You may wind up an old maid or bachelor, which is not a bad life.

A little advice: Marry in the same nationality, and if you are in a fight, one of you need to give in, right or wrong.
