Three Letters

Dear Judge,

I am so sorry for what I have done. I know that I had gotten 3 tickets before this one and that anything I say to convince you would probably not be a good reason at all. Never the less in every case that I have gotten a ticket I know that I have not been going more than 4 mph over the speed limit. And even then I was going the same sped as everyone else. The only reason I feel I got this last ticket was that upon being asked if I knew how fast I was going I said and I quote "I don't imagine I was going over 4 mph the sped limit." The officer then agreed that I was going that speed, he then said that I had done something that I know I didn't do. I know that I probably shouldn't have answered him in such a rude manner but I feel that my tone shouldn't cost me a ticket I don't deserve. So please if there is anything you can do could you please help me out.
Thank you for your time
Sincerely,
Aaron Rock


Dear Mom,

Hi mommy, I was just sitting in class today and I realized that I really wanted to write a letter to you saying how much I love and appreciate you. I also wanted to inform you of what has been going on in my life lately. I know I should probably just ichat with you if I really wanted to inform you of my life, but for some reason no other form of communication will be working for the next few weeks. So here I am writing you a letter. Like I said before I love you so much, you are the best mom I could ever ask for. And I appreciate everything you have done for me in my life. Now on a little lighter note, I kind of got another ticket the other day so I won't be able to drive for the next little while. Please don't freak out mom I will be fine. I have all my bothers here at BYU with me so it's not like I am going to have to walk everywhere. Just remember that you are the best mom in the whole world, a mom who would never get bad at me for any reason in the whole world.
With much love, your favorite son,
Aaron Rock

Dear Classmates,

I am not sure about all of you but I feel that every single one of us have gotten a fourth ticket, and that we are all losing our licenses. Well I feel that we all need to band together as a band of brothers and sisters to back each other up. It is so obvious that these officers are discriminating our class. I mean why else would we all be writing a letter to each other explaining the same situation. We need to get the media involved so these tickets will be dropped and we all will be able to drive again.
Sincerely,
Aaron Rock

  5. Way to soften the blow with mom's letter. It really lightened the mood. But it failed... She's livid with anger right now... I'd know. I'm her favorite son.

  6. Yeah I don't know how any mother could be upset with you. I mean all you need to do is suck up to them or just make them laugh, because that always works haha.

  9. Good techniques! I liked how the first thing you said to the judge was, "I'm sorry". I feel like people are more inclined to forgive us when we first acknowledge that we did something wrong. I also really liked how you snuck in mentioning the ticket in between all of the "I love you"'s to your mom.
