departure speech

First of all I would like to thank Target, for supplying me with my Brazil purse. It has a little bitty short strap, on the theory that I can clamp my upper arm over it and make it harder to steal. And the Paper Source, for having a cheapo journal with no lines and paper that scotch tape will stick to. I'd also like to thank J.Bro for providing the soundtrack to my packing efforts and my mom for loaning me her new digital camera, which she doesn't understand at all. (See picture of purse.) And Jay Sway for watering my plant while I'm gone, and my boss for letting me go, and...and everybody! Thank you mom! Thank you United Airlines! Thank you! Thank you!
