In front of post office Tony Lee is standing on his own holding a rather big envelope in his hand and trying to write something on it.Suddenly Chuck appears on the scene.
Chuck--"Hello Tony.How is it going?"
Tony--"Just a minute Chuck,let me write this damn address on envelope.I need to post it urgent today with first class mail to the publishers."
Chuck--"I just posted one myself just now to publisher.I bet I will get it back by next few days with the letter saying that I am not successful.I don't know why I keep writing these short stories anyway.I don't think they read my stuff they just chuck it in the bin or send it back to me straight away.Its such a waste of money for stamps."
Tony--"I am quite convinced that they don't read any of the stuff we write for they have no interest in arts or literature.All they want to do is to make money."
Chuck--"You don't have to tell me that.It always came back in the same envelope that I sent.I am sure it had not been opened.Fucking sick these guys are.Somebody should put a ropes round their necks and throw them in the river."
Tony--"Then these rotten bastards will be floating on the river and polluting the water.They are the pits of the world these publisher,editors and the lot.Despicable people."
Chuck--"It's making my mouth dry talking about them.I am off to the cafe' Tony are you coming?"
Tony--"Sure I would let me post this first.Then we both go to cafe' and continue our swearing at them bastards."
Tony put the envelope in the post box and they both exit......
