Puzzle Description:

I left Don's Bar not feeling particularly well,in other words,I wanted to toss my biscuits,even though I didn't eat any. I felt even sicker when I didn't see my car. Why would anyone steal an old Dodge Diplomat? I mean it was super stylish with that vinyl landau roof,and the orange,yellow,and brown plaid cloth seats and all. Frankly,i'm surprised it wasn't stolen a long time ago,but it was kind of beat up,and wouldn't fetch a large sum if it was shipped overseas to some foreign collector. I figured it was some teenagers who took it for a joy ride. Hopefully the cops will find it,not hurt too badly. I parleyed over to the bus stop,hopped a bus and went back to my office. I picked up my mail,and sat in my chair in front of the old Remington. I went through the envelopes,bill,bill,last reminder,overdue,and there it was,a letter from Gusepi. I carefully opened it with my index finger. A cheque with the remainder of my fee,plus a nice little bonus." Dear a meester Noir,I'ma want a to thank a you so much,for bringing my a son Francis back a to me. He a has a joined a me in a running the company. He a has a the great a ideas for a new a line for zee moderna fashion a industry,and has a introduced a new a line a of clothing. Sales they are a through zee roof. I'ma always a knew about Francis a being a differenta,but I'ma no ever say a anything about it. I'ma should of a let a him a know,that a it a was a ok,and that i'ma still a love a heem. He a has a forgeeven a me,and a we work a good a together. Please a come a to my office,thees a weekend. Francis is a in a France,and a will a be back. He a want a to talk a to you. Signed Gusepi Barabichi."...Well i'll be darned. I got a sort of warm fuzzy feeling inside of me,something that doesn't happen to P.I.'s that much. More than that,i was glad i could pay some of these bills,and maybe have a little left over for a decent meal,at a real restaurant. Oh crap,i forgot,I might have to buy another car.

Nice happily ever after for Gusepi. Loved the typewriter. Cool. Hope the cops find his car with the beautiful upholstery.:)
