Dear Rogan,
I will happily send you alligators, coral snakes, and especially
fire ants, if it will make your plant growing experience more interesting.
Contrary to popular belief, fire ants can be domesticated quite readily.
They provide endless fun for the whole family.
Let me know if there is anything else I can send you. I myself am
all stocked up on spider mites, plant scale, and a host of problems endemic
to Texas... Got anything you can send me to take care of these delightful
things? It would give me great pleasure to send them on to heaven (or
hell).

Sincerely,
Benjamin
