Dear recipient,

The relationship between Abraham Lincoln and Jimi

Hendrix started as a joke. But after their first

interaction, they asked to meet again, and again,

discussing various issues in different languages.

Many letters were returned to me, I guess the post

office didnt like it. But I hope that youll enjoy it, I

know that Abe and Jimi had fun.
