HUMOR IN LETTER'S

DEAR ABBY STUMPERS
The following are actual letters that Abigail Van Buren (Dear
Abby) admitted she was at a total loss to answer:
Dear Abby,
A couple of women moved in across the hall from me. One is a
middle-aged gym teacher, and the other is a social worker in
her mid twenties. These two women go everywhere together, and
I've never seen a man go into their apartment or come out.
Do you think they could be Lebanese?
Dear Abby,
What can I do about all the sex, nudity, language and violence
on my VCR?
Dear Abby,
I have a man I never could trust. He cheats so much I'm not
even sure this baby I'm carrying is even his.
Dear Abby,
I am a twenty-three-year-old liberated woman who has been on
the pill for two years. It's getting expensive, and I think
my boyfriend should share half the cost, but I don't know him
well enough to discuss money with him.
Dear Abby,
Our son writes that he is taking Judo. Why would a boy who was
raised in a good Christian home turn against his own?
Dear Abby,
I joined the Navy to see the world. I've seen it. Now, how do
I get out?
Dear Abby,
My forty-year-old son has been paying a psychiatrist $50 an
hour every week for two- and-a-half years. He must be crazy.
Dear Abby,
Do you think it would be all right if I gave my doctor a
little gift? I tried for years to get pregnant and couldn't,
and he did it.
Dear Abby,
My mother is mean and short-tempered. Do you think she is
going through her mental pause?
Dear Abby,
You told some woman whose husband had lost all interest in
sex to send him to a doctor. Well, my husband lost all
interest in sex years ago and he IS a doctor. What now?
