A LETTER FROM COLLEGE
Dear Mom,
$chool i$ really great. I am making lot$ of friend$ and $tudying very hard. With all my $tuff, I $imply can’t think of anything I need. $o if you would like, you can ju$t $end me a card, a$ I would love to hear from you.
Love, $u$an
Dear Susan,
I kNOw that astroNOmy, ecoNOmics, and oceaNOgraphy are eNOough to keep even an hoNOr student busy. do NOt forget that the pursuit of kNOwledge is a NOble task, and you can never study eNOugh,
Love, Mom
P.$. Thanks for your NOte!
^ the joke is an example of the "allusion humor". You see susan wrote a letter home in which she excessivly tried using "s" and replaced the "s"es with the dollar sign * $ * . So she in effect was asking her mom for money indirectly.
However, since the mom was clever enough to pick up on that she reciprocated by using a similar method of saying "no honey, i do not wish to give you money" and she proceeded by using phrases with the word * "No" * forexample "k*no*wledge".
