WE find the Portsmouth Sinfonia to be quite excellent and they will be featured at both Our Christmas and New Year's Balls. All of those attending will be again requested to wear mourning. We will again this year entertain the inhabitants of Our Imperial Oubliette with the songs of Florence Foster Jenkins. We require the Imperial Torturer to insure that she and all of her staff completely block their hearing.

Our right shoulder was injured on the 21st of last month when we fell on the stairs in Our Imperial Hoosier Lodge whilst on Our Autumn Journey of Visitations. Our chirurgeons will determine the extent of Our injuries and decide what they think best, and then We will decide upon a treatment.
