Dear Loris Bog-Off Festival,

For the life of me I couldn’t tell you what a “Bog-Off Festival” is, so I decided to do a little research and found it features “a chicken bog cooking contest.” At this point I gave up.

I’m from Iowa, so none of this makes sense to me.

So fire away, explain it to me like I am an idiot.

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen

Dear Christopher Jorgensen,

Thank you for inquiring about our town’s festival and southern dish of chicken bog. I have enclosed a relocation guide from our town and marked a place for you to read about our festival and what a chicken bog is. I hope this will help but please contact me if you have any further questions. We also extend to you an invitation to come visit us in Loris and hopefully the Loris Bog-Off Festival.

Sincerely,

Samantha Norris
Executive Assistant to the Board of Directors

Commentary:

I have to say a chicken bog is like poutine to me; something I hope to eat at least once before I die.
