JIM TRESSEL'S VACATION: PART 3

In part three of Jim Tressel's Vacation, a.k.a. Where in the World is Carmen, OhioSanDiego: A cheap, weathered envelope sits in the mailbox in Ohio. It is covered with numerous inscrutable postmarks. Inside it is a simple postcard and a photograph.

Front:

Back:

Star-divide

Dearest--

Thank you for understanding my yearly walkabout, and for your patience and devotion. Mogadishu is lovely this time of year, as it always is. It's good to see good friends again, even if many of them have lost limbs and eyes since the last time I saw them.

I will be home after an expedition with my old friends on the Horn of Africa. I have enclosed a picture of the unique collateral I brought with me this time to fund our yearly adventures.

The picture:

We-Are! Being-Held-For-Ransom!

LOL,

Jimmy

ps. "Lost" my passport in Afghanistan please file for a new one love again ly jim

pps. I am going to spank you like a Somali shepard whips a camel when I get home, but only in the loving, consenting way we always do. XOXOXOXO --J.

Ah… the gulf of Aden and on to the Horn. On the way, will sweater-vest drop in on his pal, Mugabe? Perhaps he can rotate the crops from Maize to Buckeyes.

Good to see Maurice Clarett was able to land a job after being a convicted felon, sometimes people just don’t understand.

Those pirates have no sense of style. Not a sword to be found. I bet they have lousy organizational structure too.

Durka Durka Tressel Jihad!
Does Jim Tressel have a myspace.com account for his band, “Jim and the Infideltones”?, and their new record “A Pirate Looks at 40……Million Dollars in Ransom Money”?

This must be before he convinces Sayid to kill various pawns of Charles Widmore for him.

I believe the phrase you were looking for is:
