A soldier stationed overseas received a breakup Ietter from his girlfriend back home. It began, ‘Dear Harry, I can’t do this anymore. The distance between us is too much’.
I must admit that I have cheated twice since you’ve been gone, and it’s not fair to either of us. I’m sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent you. Love, Kim. The soldier, with hurt feeIings, asked his fellow soldiers for any snapshots they could spare of their girlfriends, sisters, ex-girlfriends, aunts, cousins, etc.
In addition to the picture of Kim, Harry included all the other pictures of pretty girIs he had collected.
There were 43 photos in the envelope along with a note that read, Dear Kim, I’m so sorry but I can’t remember who you are. Please take your picture from the piIe, and send the rest back to me. Take care, Harry.
