Dear Bono,Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of your music. However, what I really want to commend you on is your dedication to the environment and all of your other causes and achievements, which I won’t elaborate on because they make me feel inferior and guilty for not doing more.
I work at a new business; we are a private driving service that uses only hybrid vehicles. When we were brainstorming ways to grow our customer base, someone mentioned how great it would be to have a big-time celebrity or rock star use our service. It’s true that the idea is far-fetched and the chances of it happening are slim to none. I mean, it’s pretty laughable to imagine Paris, Lindsay, or Britney using our service. But still, we can dream. We would want someone who cares about the environment, someone who’s a good role model, a citizen of the world…someone with an international profile, who is a talented musician in a world famous critically acclaimed band…who has jet black hair and rocks tight pants…who wears trademark sunglasses and exudes a cool confidence in spite of being as old as my father…All signs point to Dave Navarro. Just kidding. We need you, Bono, and only you. You’re our only hope.
If someone as cool, popular, talented, worldly, and passionate about the environment as you are used our services, there’s no telling how many people would want to try us too!
Just think about it…
Sincerely,
The Joshua Tree was the first CD I ever owned
