Post # 39 - Just Born Halloween Peeps - The Eye-Less Peep,

Dear Peeps,

I am writing to tell you about a problem that I encountered with your ghost peeps. My children, Rocco and Tina, were enjoying your marshmallowy treats, when they discovered that one ghost was missing eyes. Why him or her? Why my children’s Peeps, and not the Peep’s of another’s children? I guess fate brought the eye-less peep to our doorstep.

When the incident occurred, I asked my children what they thought I should do, and whether a letter to the Peep Factory was justified. Rocco said, “Write a letter, Daddy.” Tina said, “No Daddy. If you complain, you’ll get in trouble and they’ll send people after us.” She went so far as to ask me to send this anonymously.

I am writing this letter for Tina, so she understands that it’s okay to bring a problem to someone’s attention. Furthermore, I wrote this letter because the children need to understand that people can, and will hold them accountable.

Consider this a moral stand—one that I am taking for my children. If Rocco or Tina turned in an art project, and the face was missing eyes, they would receive an “Incomplete.” Why should you be held to a lower standard?

I need a written explanation. Why us? Why anybody? When will it end?

Thanks,

Jerry
