FROM THE<br />

OSTRICH FILES<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

Re: Stephen & Laureen<br />

Harper’s marriage, <strong>Frank</strong> 577<br />

I can’t believe this story is<br />

not being picked up!! What on<br />

Earth is happening? Even if<br />

they’re not living apart now,<br />

surely it is worth reporting<br />

even if it’s only in passing.<br />

GOOD DEEDS INDEED<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

Re: Condo Memories of Randy Duplak,<br />

<strong>Frank</strong> 576<br />

What are you trying to say here?<br />

The pluses of being a capable functionary<br />

and <strong>com</strong>mitted to various<br />

philanthropic organizations<br />

seem to be cancelled out by<br />

his work for the N.S. Human<br />

Rights Kangaroo<br />

Court and confining his<br />

good deeds to those charities<br />

most relevant to his<br />

own tribe?<br />

Hopefully not, but if so,<br />

then I can only repeat that<br />

aphorism of those humanitarians,<br />

the Khmer Rouge,<br />

Randy Duplak<br />

and that is, “Keeping you is no gain. Losing<br />

you is no loss.”<br />

A BIRD IN THE<br />

HAND, ETC., ETC.<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

Curiosity runs deep in the woods about<br />

Truro Park, so let’s send in a film crew.<br />

Anxious folks need to see what these birds<br />

are doing under the shaking bushes and<br />

humps of snow. Or is it too frosty to huff ‘n’<br />

puff? Ask the users.<br />

I’M TOO SEXY FOR MY ... PORT<br />

Hey <strong>Frank</strong>,<br />

U R a dickhead. We Capers look at you and say “dickhead.” In your last<br />

rag (<strong>Frank</strong> 577), you called Sydport an ugly duckling, and said the Philadelphia<br />

Regional Port Authority sounded “more macho” than Sydport. We think,<br />

no, we know it, you’re mixed up.<br />

Philly’s name is way, way too formal, you know, it sounds like the someone<br />

who has been in school too long. Macho it is not. Philly sounds girly, man!<br />

Anyone, especially Hellifax — where they continue to spend and steal Cape<br />

Breton’s money and industry every day — would love to have a macho, quickfast<br />

name like Sydport.<br />

Sydport is professional, and short, and to the point, don’t you think, dickhead?<br />

Yes, we read your paper for free at the local convenience store. You think we<br />

pay for garbage?<br />

WHO YOU CALLIN’ A WANNABE?<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

I was reading your <strong>Frank</strong> 100 and noticed<br />

an article about Brendan Riley, the son of<br />

Sean Riley (<strong>Frank</strong> 575).<br />

You were talking about how he got a $32,000<br />

scholarship to St. F.X. and how it seemed unfit<br />

he should receive it. I think your reporter<br />

should have done some more research.<br />

I went to school with Brendan last year and<br />

he was an excellent, straight “A” student. (I<br />

use quotes because he took IB - International<br />

Bachaulaureate — which is actually graded<br />

with numbers.)<br />

There is no better student to receive such<br />

LOCAL HEROS<br />

ARE OFF LIMITS!<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

It’s great to see you crapping on the politicians and<br />

money mongers of this country, but you go over the line<br />

when you yap on unnecessarily about local heros like<br />

Sidney Crosby. Only shows what a real dumb ass you<br />

are and will certainly do nothing to help your circulation.<br />

THERE’S<br />

NO LIFE<br />

LIKE<br />

IT...<br />

Dear <strong>Frank</strong>:<br />

I’m the married mother of two, and I<br />

have more restrictions on my day-to-day<br />

existence than convicted government<br />

fraudster Natalie Pelrine’s conditional<br />

sentence (<strong>Frank</strong> 577) does!<br />

an award. He will be going places in his life,<br />

unlike the NEWSpaper wannabe that wrote<br />

this article. I understand that some, maybe<br />

even a lot, of your articles are based on the<br />

truth, but this article was just a way for the<br />

reporter to have something to print because<br />

he/she had no other stories.<br />

I think an article with an apology is required<br />

from your reporter, not only because it was disrespectful<br />

to both Brendan and Sean, but because<br />

I’m guessing that the reporter will have<br />

nothing else good to print for the next issue.<br />
