Dear Sirs:

You people must be so proud to have received such enormous publicity on the Internet. Maybe you can use the Katie Barnett incident to rework your bank's slogan or tagline. Right off the bat, you can probably move away from things like "The Friendly Bank" or "A Bank With A Heart" and more towards "Damn! It Feels Good To Be A Banksta!". Please feel free to use that last suggestion in your ads. Also, how much will you charge me to get a few Wellston Bank business cards with my name on them? My neighbor has a riding lawn mower that I would love to get my hands on, but I need a get out of jail free card of some sort. I figure that if your employees can burglarize homes with impugnity, maybe it will work for me. Please advise!

Regards,

V
