hey, Slappy, is the Ese here? "Cause look what I found... hilarious!
You can make a letter of complaint using any name. It's fun, in an evil sort of way!
My complaint about Mr. Ese Edgar, Esq.
Mr. Ese Edgar, Esq.'s worst transgressions are systematically whitewashed by the press. To counteract that whitewash, I will use the remainder of my space here to expose Ese for who he really is. Let me start by stressing that I am not attempting to suppress anyone's opinions, nor do I intend to demean Ese personally for his beliefs or worldviews. But I do believe that I must oppose Ese and all he stands for.

His opinions are unhealthy and lacking in purpose, yes. But every time he tries, Ese gets increasingly successful in his attempts to turn weasels loose against us good citizens. This dangerous trend means not only death for free thought, but for imagination as well. In an atmosphere of false rumors and misinformation, he has, at times, called me "cynical" or "impudent". Such contemptuous name-calling has passed far beyond the stage of being infantile but harmless. It has the capacity to enact new laws forcing anyone who's not one of his associates to live in an environment that can, at best, be described as contemptuously tolerant. I don't believe that Ese has his moral compass in tact. So when he says that that's what I believe, I see how little he understands my position.

If anything, I am not trying to save the world -- I gave up that pursuit a long time ago. But I am trying to challenge the present and enrich the future. Now, it is not my purpose to suggest that blaming whiney cynicism on grotty slumlords is one of Ese's favorite themes, but rather to justify condemnation, constructive criticism, and ridicule of Ese and his self-indulgent, predatory smear tactics. There is good reason to believe that if he had even a shred of intellectual integrity, he'd admit that his hypocrisy is transparent. Even the least discerning among us can see right through it. Ese leaves me no choice but to get fired from my job. Let me explain. Many people are incredulous when I tell them that he intends to incite an atmosphere of violence and endangerment toward the good men, women, and children of this state. "How could Ese be so postmodernist?", they ask me. "It doesn't seem possible." Well, it is certainly possible, and now I'll explain exactly how Ese plans to do it. But first, you need to realize that he uses the very intellectual tools he criticizes, namely consequentialist arguments rather than arguments about truth or falsity. I like to speak of him as "heartless". That's a reasonable term to use, I insist, but let's now try to understand it a little better. For starters, statements like, "Ese is operating under the misguided assumption that the best way to make a point is with foaming-at-the-mouth rhetoric and letters filled primarily with exclamation points" accurately express the feelings of most of us here. Finally, if this letter generates a response from someone of opposing viewpoints, I would hope that the author(s) concentrate on offering objections to my ideas while refraining from attacks on my person or my intelligence. I've gotten enough of that already from Mr. Ese Edgar, Esq..

Thanks Slappy. The UPS guy showed up with my free beer just hours after I ordered it. Did you get yours yet?

It will be flat since gases cannot dissolve in ice, so they will be lost in process of freezing. But the alcohol contents will remain the same.
