The Citizenship Chronicles, #4


OK, well, I got the gender right:




But Manuel (?) Contreras does not sound like a lanky young blonde guy, does he?

I cannot make out the middle initial at all, because of the funky font and the, um, jaunty angle at which it was stamped. It could be an I, a T or a J or an L.

I have to say, though, the impersonality of the signature stamp is a little jarring. But I understand its practicality. I guess Manuel (?) Contreras receives lots of mail that requires his signature. But, really, Manuel (?) Contreras, you could have at least aimed a little better.

But, hey, I won’t nit-pick, if you promise the same, OK? So… Manuel (?) Contreras, over to you: my American fate is in your hands. Be gentle with me.
