[kj] Open Letter to Jaz

[Lennonka]

Correct, Paul. It is that sort of open letter.
I assure you he hated it at first, there are protocols in place for such
events and I got my punishment for the deed.

Big Paul and Youth have helped us already, actually. Not that I can say the
same about some of the present folks.

"Let me tell you about the hearts of my people... and the meaning of the
tribe."

But I believe in your hearts.
