Ms. Williams,

I’m going to put this as delicately as I can, but the way in which your email was written makes me question why you would be put in charge of finding a safe home for two children. Again, I mean no offense, but are you sure you’re up to the job? I mean, are you retarded, or what?

Anyway, I’m really not sure that I can take care of two three-year-old boys. Honestly, I don’t have any idea what would have given you the impression that it was a good idea. And they’re in England? I live in the USA, Rose, how is that going to work?

I’ve used a foreign currency exchange rate calculator on the sums you’ve provided, and at the current rate 3,000,000 pounds is actually just over 5,300,000 dollars, American. I don’t know about you, but a difference of 700,000 dollars is huge for me. It would really make a big difference in my decision of whether or not to raise these kids, so please let me know how that mistake was made and if the actual figure would be closer to 6,000,000 dollars.

And what is the UK Deaf Government? Deaf people have their own systems of government? What? Also don’t act like I just know who Dr. Benedict is because I don’t. Sorry, but it’s kind of a pet peeve of mine when people start talking about something as if I know about it when I don’t because it makes me feel stupid.

But whatever.
Send me the documents, I’ll look them over.
W3

Rose,

Wow, those are some cute deaf kids. I’m sure they will be very happy in my apartment with me and my two gay roommates. Do they enjoy the Style network and cheap pizza? How about beer? Do they like beer, Rose?

I want to move forward with the adoption proceedings, obviously, but can I ask why you need a picture of me? Since when do looks determine one’s capacity to provide a loving home?

Also, I noticed you didn’t answer any of my questions. We’re talking about two human lives here, Rose, even if they are deaf. And I think it’s important on both of our parts to be as honest and open as possible to determine that Wilson and Daniel end up in the best living situation possible. So please explain to me why you think I’d make a good parent, how it will work that the kids are in the UK while I am in the United States, and finally, how come your last email was sent from an Italian email server? Is Deaf UK (oh yeah, what is Deaf UK, also? Is it still a government?) an international organization/government? I guess that would make sense.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you. Maybe I should get in touch with Wilson and Daniel, as well, to talk to them about what their expectations are once they get here.

Thanks, W3.

Subject: Adopting Two Kids or Whatever

Dr. Wilson,

In America, we don’t call our lawyers Doctor. Is this a peculiarity to the English judicial system? I’m very curious, and wikipedia doesn’t seem to explain this to me.

I’ve also got to admit, Dr. Wilson, that I am concerned about Rose. It’s not just her linguistic problems, but a total lack of awareness as well. As you very well know, we are dealing with two human lives. Two young, impressionable human lives, actually. I’ve asked numerous questions of Rose about how Deaf UK got my information and why everyone is so sure that I would be a good parent to them, but she hasn’t answered a single one. In fact, it seems like all I have to do is send an email to get moved further down the chain towards being a father.

Maybe things are different in the UK, or maybe it’s just that the UK doesn’t give a shit about deaf kids. Are the kids deaf? I don’t even know, I guess I just got confused by the whole “real deaf” thing. But seriously, I’m really surprised at the speed and ease of adopting two apparently wealthy children. No background check? No one’s worried that I’m going to just take the money and leave the kids on their asses?

Send me the letter. I can’t wait to fucking adopt these fucking kids.
W3

Mr. Wilson,

Nice to hear from you. I will tell you one thing right off the bat, this whole experience has been a real eye-opener. Not only has being faced with the prospect of fatherhood changed me as a man, but I’m also learning a lot about English culture. In America, an email in all-caps signifies I AM MAD AND I AM YELLING AT YOU WITH WORDS. But in England, it would seem, all-caps says I AM READY TO PUT THE LIVES OF TWO INNOCENT CHILDREN INTO YOUR HANDS, STRANGER! LET’S DO THIS!

As per your questions, I cannot answer the first one. Sorry. I hope this doesn’t mess things up, but I don’t have a driver’s license because where  I live you can get pretty much everywhere on bicycle (which I think the kids are really going to love). Secondly, I’ve never had a need for a passport. If it means the difference between dedicating the rest of my life to two strange, but fabulously wealthy children under bizarre circumstances, I’d defintely be willing to consider applying for one. Let me know what you think.

As for the second question I can only provide you with a resounding “Yes!” I’m super honest, and I think I’m a good man, as well. I wish I had more I could offer you, like testimonials or some kind of tangible proof. Like, if I worked for Habitat for Humanity or something, that would be a really great example of how good and honest I am, right? But I don’t. I don’t actually volunteer anywhere. But that’s actually going to be a plus once the children come into my custody, because I’ll have all that free time to give to their proper rearing.

I’m looking forward to the next step in the process, as well as getting my hands on those kids’ money.

Thanks.
W3.

Dear?

Whatever. We’re talking about two children’s lives, so I can’t be too frustrated with your weird British mannerisms. But also, why is your name Bruce but your email says Ernest? Again, I mean no offense, but since the security and well-being of two CHILDREN is at issue here, I’m surprised that your guys’s operation isn’t more up-to-code, so to speak.

Attached please find a copy of my identification. I didn’t send it earlier because I thought you could only use a driver’s license or a passport. I didn’t realize that something that simply showed my personality was sufficient. This displays my personality quite well. I also hope it’s not a problem that I’m black.

Send me the kids now.
